Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged Antonio Cresce to plan and manage our 2.5 week holiday in Italy - covering regions around Turin, Lake Maggiore and Verona.
He was amazing from the planning stages, helping us to pick towns as bases, according to our needs and interests . We had video calls with him where he listened to what we wanted and we planned the details together. When we were in Italy, he kept in close contact and was readily available for any questions or issues we came across .
The hotels he chose were incredible , and the excursions from the towns we stayed in were interesting and great experiences. His contacts, his experience and his professionalism made our holiday in Italy seamless and a truly wonderful experience!
We would highly recommend Antonio from Expert to Italy !

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just returned from a 2 week honeymoon and it could not have been better! Antonio helped us decide exactly where to go based on what we wanted and went above and beyond for us. His knowledge is incredible and everything was organised so well, he listened to us and answered every question we had along the way. Each place we stayed in was the best accommodation available in the area and we couldn't have asked for more, without his expertise the trip would not have been as perfect as it was. We will always go through him in future when heading to Italy.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just returned from a superb Southern Italy tour, organised expertly by Antonio. It exceeded our expectations and the communication was superb - both before and during the holiday. Antonio took time to understand what we enjoyed doing and provided information to enable us to get the most out of our time. The holiday was beyond words and we cannot be more grateful that we used Antonio and ExpertoItaly for our unforgettable holiday and would absolutely recommend.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An absolutely stunning holiday. Organised totally by Antonio. His attention to detail was exceptional. All the train journey, ferry and taxi's all went like clockwork. Even when our train was delayed he changed the ferry tickets. He chose the Botania Hotel in Ischia, the service was the best we've had anywhere. The island is so beautiful. Antonio also gave us a list of where to vist on the Island. Would definitely use Antonio again for our next visit to Italy or Sicily.
