Booking a tour to Italy with a luxury operator is a great way to see the country in style. But you want to make sure you pick a well-respected operator to ensure you get what you are paying for in terms of high end amenities, hotels and restaurants. Here are three luxury tour operators to Italy that get good reviews.

1. Abercrombie & Kent

This company offers luxury tours around the world and has a stellar reputation. In Italy, Abercrombie & Kent offers a number of different tours that allow you to explore the many faces of Italy, and discover the true meaning of la dolce vita. A&K trips are known for providing insider access, so you can expect to explore the Vatican with an expert guide in Rome or learn how to craft pizza in a private cooking lesson. The carefully curated luxury tours to Italy by A&K are small group, so they never feel to large, and tend to visit all the main attractions like Florence, Venice and the aforementioned Rome, as well as detouring to destinations like the Amalfi Coast, Coast, alpine-like Lake Como, fashion-forward Milan, Tuscany’s wine country, sunny Sicily or the stunning Aeolian Islands.

2. Kensington Tours

Another high end tour operator is Kensington Tours, which also hosts a number of Italian adventures for the luxury traveler. One popular Italian tour is the company’s Rome and Amalfi Coast trip. Lasting 7 days it explores the classic works of art, lavish Renaissance palaces and gorgeous natural landscapes of the city and coastline. In Rome, you’ll explore the city by private tour. On the super trendy Amalfi Coast, expect to be seduced by charming coves, deep fjords and cliffs that plunge into the sea. Tours also included a guided trip to Pompeii and time to wander Capri.

3. Artisans of Leisure

This travel company specializes in private luxury tours of Italy with a guide. The company prides itself on helping guests appreciate the country in a hands-on way that incorporates the country’s top destinations along with its most luxurious hotels and top restaurants. Since Artisans of Leisure trips are private, everything is customized to personal tastes. For gourmets, there’s the olive oil of Tuscany, the pasta of Bologna, the seafood of Venice, the wine of Chianti, and for dessert, the pastries of Naples. For sun worshippers, the deep blue Adriatic washes the white sand beaches of Puglia, and the Tyrrhenian brushes against the tiny harbors and steep cliffs of the Amalfi Coast. Italy is where monks chant in a Romanesque abbey, whitewashed houses stand next to fields of sunflowers, artisan workshops and Prada outlets both thrive, and aristocratic villas are converted into five-star hotels.
