Hi Marcella,
Thank you so much for planning our trip. It was amazing and our family had a wonderful time. We appreciated all the time you took to carefully design our trip with family-friendly and educational events and arrange the transportation. The timing for all the events was carefully and well scheduled.

Italy, a country renowned for its rich history, vibrant culture, and breathtaking landscapes, offers more than just a travel destination. For many Americans, it's a popular choice for purchasing a second home.

The LAC Music Festival, known as “Lugano Arte e Cultura,” is a vibrant cultural event held in Lugano, Switzerland, rather than Italy. However, its proximity to the Italian border makes it a popular event for music and art enthusiasts from…

Repeat customers! We can’t say enough about the thoughtful service provided by Marcella Lucenti and Cultural Italy. We’ve worked with Marcella multiple times - she’s an excellent listener who develops creative itineraries and is willing to go more than the extra mile to ensure we have amazing experiences.

Thank you so much Manuela,
It truly was a remarkable experience! We genuinely loved our trip and each city was more fascinating than the next.
We have been discussing and each of us has a different opinion! I loved Rome, my husband, Florence, and my son, Venice!

Currently, several of Lotto's masterpieces are gracing various Italian museums. The Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan is showcasing the "Portrait of Laura da Pola" (1543), on loan from the Gallerie d’Italia in Naples. This painting, featuring Laura da Pola in an exquisitely embroidered dress holding a white feather fan, creates a thematic bridge to the 19th-century work of Domenico Morelli. Both paintings, displayed side by side until April 1st, 2024 offer a fascinating glimpse into the elegance of their eras.

Well, it's been one of the greatest travel experiences that I've had. This was my third time in Italy but the first one of this KIND. I want to thank Manuela and your staff for this excellent travel experience and for letting me know and learn about Italy from another perspective.

TRADITIONS
The first time I saw Venice it was Carnival. Like an aristocratic lady - aware of her opulent beauty - Venice that year too donned her boldest and most luxurious attire, with the intention of leaving an even more indelible memory into whoever was lucky enough to behold her.

Dive into Rome’s hidden alleys and whispered legends with Mark Tedesco's insightful narrative, "She Seduced Me: A Love Affair with Rome." This isn't just another recounting of Rome's well-trodden paths; it's a deep, personal voyage into the unseen narratives that blanket this ancient city.
