ABOUT OUR SPONSORS
 Exclusively Italian is led by Laura Bianconcini, a native of Rome, Italy who has lived in Italy most of her life. Laura has traveled extensively throughout Italy and wants to share with you a different style of travel. That is, travel at a relaxed pace discovering the real essence of the Italian culture, through its territory and people, and its multiple perspectives. We want to show you the diversity that every destination has to offer: art and history, traditions, crafts, food and wine, culture, life-style and close contact with the local people.
Our expertise comes from extensive research and experience. Our deep regional knowledge allows us to work by theme, organizing specific tours in areas where your passions will blossom fuller than ever. www.exclusivelyitalian.com
 From the best tradition of the regions of Abruzzo and Emilia Romagna, comes the best for your table. This is after all, the "mission statement", of Andrea Zarattini, owner of Italianissimo Inc. a project that is linked to the cultural and culinary traditions of generous and rich lands that represent excellence in Italian food products. The care, the passion and the research for the best products available in the two regions are at the base of our project.
