It is with great pleasure that I write this review!
We (5 adults, 2 teenagers, 1 toddler, 1 baby) have just returned from a two week vacation in Tuscany, Italy. I can honestly say that if it had not been for Luciano, this family vacation would not have taken place and it would not have been the success that it was!
From the beginning, he very patiently listened to our vision and answered my many questions ... often more than once.
A beautiful spacious Villa was rented, transportation was arranged, airline tickets were booked. He truly went above and beyond! He also provided us with a suggested itinerary which proved to be extremely helpful.
Throughout the two weeks of our vacation, he checked in with us to make sure that we were happy and everything was going well.
My hope is to be able to book vacations with Luciano in the future.
I sincerely thank you !!!

Luciano demonstrated exemplary expertise from the moment my wife & I started planning our 30-day European honeymoon! Within 24 hours of our first meeting, Luciano had developed an intricate and thoughtfully planned itinerary complete with alternatives & loaded with supporting details on all logistical elements for a seamless travel experience. For context, we needed multiple modes of transportation to take place across 6 countries & hotels with half & full-day excursions throughout. If this wasn’t enough, we had need it all booked within a week only 10 weeks away from our wedding & honeymoon! Luciano held multiple meetings with us throughout our pre-wedding schedule! We recommend Luciano for all your travel needs!!

We're very thankful to Luciano for helping us put together such a wonderful trip! Luciano knows Italy so well, which had us trust his recommendations on which parts of the country to visit (given our preferences). It also made us feel confident that we were booking hotels, tours, car rentals that Luciano was personally recommending. He was also great at supporting us in managing some last minute curve-balls thrown into the mix with his warm and empathetic manner. Thanks so much again, Luciano!

A pleasure! Timely, exemplary service, with warmth.

Luciano was amazing to work with! He designed our trip for us and set us up in amazingly located hotels, drivers and excursion suggestions. We wouldn't have known where to start otherwise. Our trip to Italy was absolutely perfect!

He is so thoughtful of what you want and your budget. He personally would call to get a better understanding of how he can cater the itinerary for your needs

Luciano Lista planned our most memorable 33 day family trip. From Paris to Sicily, Luciano booked everything for us. From planes trains & automobiles to hotels & tours, Luciano planned it all. Luciano offers a wealth of travel knowledge and expertise. We discussed our travel ideas & dreams and he planned it!
His vast travel experience and expertise allowed our family to truly experience the best that Paris and Italy had to offer. He suggested what to see and what tourist traps to avoid. He also suggested the many not so mainstream must see treasures of Italy and France. He arranged private tours for us through his vast network of tourist guides which made our experiences so enjoyable & enlightening. He also advised us on where we could save some money and where we should spend a few more dollars.
Luciano truly loves his work! Travel is his passion not his job. His patience and knowledge truly made our family vacation the “TRIP OF A LIFETIME!!”
Thank you Luciano!!

Luciano was most helpful . He provided alternatives and worked to get the best deal. Above all I appreciate his honesty , patience and dedication in truly wanting to please the client. I would highly recommend this agent.

Stellar honeymoon experience! We asked for a relaxing and romantic getaway and got more than we could have hoped for! Luciano took care of all the research, planning and booking. We didn’t have to lift a finger - exactly what you want after planning a wedding. Thank you, Luciano, for professional, quality, and worry-free service. Will never work with another travel agent!

One of the most informative and pleasurable trips! Wonderful hotels, beautiful destinations and ... the food! Outstanding!

Luciano is a knowledgeable agent who finds vacations based on the parameters you set. He was patient and understanding of all the questions I had about various travel options like stopovers.

Great tour guide

Very Helpful and Friendly

Luciano thinks of everything!
The tour to Calabria & Sicily started with an opportunity to meet our co-travelers at an evening gathering, sipping Prosecco while learning more about our itinerary. This happened months before our trip but was an opportunity to get acquainted and build excitement!
I departed a few days earlier and met the group in Rome, so aside from my traveling companion, Anna, I had already met a few of the others in advance and felt like I was re-uniting with family when we gathered in Rome to fly to Lamezia. The itinerary included long enough stays in each location so we could get to know each city, and enough opportunities to opt out and do "our own thing!"
- For the most part, dinners were EVENTS, with entertainment and delicious food
- Our tour guides were outstanding!
- When things were not as expected, or there was a problem to be solved, Luciano listens and responds like trusted family!
Truly a trip that made memories to last a lifetime!! Thanks Luciano

he is truly committed to serving his clients who he treats as friends and family. Sensitive to people's needs and very responsive

Awesome tour planner. It was just what we hoped it would be.
