What do we find in Italy that can be found nowhere
else? I believe it is a certain permission to be
human that other countries lost long ago. Not only
is Italy one of the few places left where fantasy
runs unfettered as Luigi Barzini said in The
Italians, “even instruments of precision like
speedometers and clocks are made to lie in Italy for
your happiness”; it is also one of the few places
that tolerate human nature with all its faults.

Erica
Jong, from “My Italy”
Italian Itineraries has always been a unique company
offering one on one, personal service to our
clients. We have an excellent knowledge of Italy,
gained through 25 years of residence there and
regular trips in recent years for inspection and
selection of our lovely homes. In an ever-increasing
and crowded market, we aim to be a cut above the
rest. Our excellent reputation has been gained in 13
years of successful business with hundreds of happy
holiday-makers. Our first-hand knowledge of the
properties we represent is undeniably a great asset
and invaluable in helping you, our client, select
the most suitable property.
The company, which I founded in Sydney in 1993, has
seen a remarkable growth over the years. We have
weathered the downturn in travel and tourism
following the events of September 11, SARS, the war
in Iraq and the many uncertainties which face world
travellers today. This, surely, is thanks to our
well-established presence on the villa rental market
in Australia and the USA, where we were based for
five years and where the company has gained a
reputation as one of the finest in the business.
Italian Itineraries is present on the Internet with
two large sites, one of which -
www.italian-itineraries.com.au
– presents a special selection of smaller, more
moderately-priced accommodation. Our larger and more
important properties are featured on our original
and main site,
www.italian-itineraries.com
.
Our charming holiday homes are located in the most
beautiful parts of Italy: the Lakes area, the
Riviera, Tuscany and Umbria, the Amalfi Coast and
the most important art cities: Rome, Florence, Siena
and Venice. Each property is selected as if I were
renting it myself. My standards are always very
exacting, the quality to price ratio is very high
and I believe we do have the finest collection of
homes under the Tuscan and Italian sun! Italy
continues to be a highly desirable destination and I
hope that in this Collection there is something just
right for you.
Sincere thanks go to my many “Italian Connections” –
so precious in facilitating and assisting my
selection of the outstanding properties which you
will find in this 2006 Collection.
