The nicest things
Adventurers, families and honymooners all love working with Trips 2 Italy, but don't just take our word for it.
Our trip was fabulous. All the plans were set up perfectly, everything went off like clockwork. We really appreciated the special service we received everywhere we went. Walking out to the canal in Venice and having the water taxi drive up at exactly the scheduled time was perfect. Our favorite tour of all was the food and wine tour in Rome. The food was authentic and locals were unique and memorable.
We had the most wonderful trip to Italy with Mary and Martin C. and we wanted to thank you personally for putting together such a fabulous itinerary. Too many favorite things to list! Such a beautiful place and we want to go back in a few years and hit Rome and the Amalfi Coast. When the time comes, we will make sure and contact you! Many, many thanks to you again Tommaso!
Tomasso promised us a unique, wonderful traveling experience and he exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful for his care to every detail and selection of activities. The cooking class was an especially wonderful. I never dreamed it would be in an outside kitchen surrounded by the beauty of Italy. Making our own pasta was so much fun and topping the meal off with “chocolate salami” was heavenly.
Our mission:
Don't see Italy, live it
Most travel sites sell one-size-fits-all trips. We're on a mission to help travelers experience Italy like a local.
The story
of Trips 2 Italy
When most people think of Italy and it's people, they think of people who are passionate for the things they love. Trips 2 Italy founder, Tommaso De Poi along with his sister Giulia, have that passion for Italy. Since 2003, they have been helping customize vacations for their guests that truly embrace the Italian experience. Their mission is simple yet ambitious. They want to create that dream vacation. They understand that each trip, your trip, is a once in a lifetime event. Combining their first-hand knowledge of Italy with their years of vacation planning helps make each trip special. They are uniquely in tune with each client and their unique needs. They take the time to listen to find those small but important details that help transform the trip from a vacation that can be planned anywhere, to a truly personal experience.
Our founder
Tommaso De Poi
Tommaso De Poi, founder of Trips 2 Italy, was born at the foot of the Alps in Lake Como, Italy. He developed a love of skiing, but as he grew, the waters of Lake Como became his passion. Growing up in Italy made him uniquely qualified to be able to share the love of his country with anyone who asks. In 1999, Tommaso's job brought him to Houston. In 2003, he decided that he wanted to share his love of Italy and help people see the beauty of his beloved homeland. Tommaso serves on the board of the Italian Cultural and Community Center in his adopted hometown of Houston. He has taken a large interest in the center because he wanted to make sure his children, although born in America, kept their heritage.
