CRAZY FOR EXCELLENCE
Artisans of tourism experiences, advocates of our cultural roots.
There was a time when a trio of witty art historians, Fulvio, Chiara and Alessia, were dreaming about conveying their passion for the Italian cultural heritage to the intrigued visitors of their mesmerizing Country.
What started in 2007 as a thrilling challenge gradually unfolded into a professional Elite Destination Management Company catering to the curious traveler who longs to discover the incommensurable treasures of the Italian Peninsula through upscale experiences.

We design exclusive and authentic tourism itineraries always following the highest quality standards and customizing the event to meet the guest’s requirements and expectations.

Since June 2018 the company has been welcomed into the prestigious Virtuoso Destinations & Experiences Program as On-Site Preferred Partner for Italy.

Genuine enthusiasm for arts and culture, a keen eye for the smallest detail, creative thinking in developing new experiences and flexibility in handling last minute changes are doubtlessly our main strengths.

Whether a tour inside the most remarkable Italian monuments with top-level guides, a high-class transportation service or the perfect accommodation for your stay, we at Imago Artis Travel will take care of every aspect of your holiday and commit to astonish you.
We constantly strive for excellence.
