Rome, Tuscany, Venice or a route of your own. Fred, our Paris-based Franco-Italian founder, helps choose the right places and pace, then coordinates the hotels, trains and experiences you approve. You see the total and inclusions before you commit.
Find a starting point for your Italy journey
Choose a city stay, time in the countryside or a northern Italy route. We can adapt the number of nights, hotel style, guided visits and independent time, or combine Italy with France.
Three styles, the same personal attention
Charm, Signature and Exceptional compare hotel and experience styles, not levels of planning service. Personal planning, agreed bookings, restaurant coordination and the Chic Trip app are part of every journey.
Indicative budgets in USD, per person with two adults sharing one double room. The total for two is shown alongside each price.
These are sample budgets, not confirmed offers or guaranteed availability. International flights and meals are excluded unless specified. Dates, hotels and experiences affect the final total; your written proposal confirms the inclusions, payment dates and cancellation terms before you commit.
A special celebration, a quieter pace, a different hotel or something already booked? Tell Fred what matters to you. Start with a free call or an email, with no payment or price acceptance required.

What would you like us to take off your plate?
Your journey includes the planning and coordination behind the experience. Here is how we handle five common travel needs as we tailor your trip.
I do not want to manage the reservations.
We coordinate the bookings included in your journey: the right visit, date, time and party size, with your approval before we book.
In practice: You receive the confirmations and meeting details in your itinerary, with a clear distinction between suggestions and confirmed reservations.
What to know: Your proposal lists the accommodation, tickets and transport included in the total, plus meals and other exclusions. Availability and supplier terms apply; international flights remain yours to book.
We build around your fixed plans, walking comfort and preferred pace, allowing for travel between stops, meals and breaks. Free time is part of the plan, not a gap to fill.
In practice: A museum morning can lead into lunch nearby and an optional afternoon, rather than another timed visit across the city.
What to know: This is a planning example, not a fixed schedule. The final order depends on your dates and confirmed bookings.
I want to feel confident about the places I choose.
We explain why a restaurant, hotel or experience fits your tastes, budget and route, including the trade-offs. Famous or expensive is not automatically right for you.
In practice: For a dinner, we consider the menu, atmosphere, location and likely length of the meal, not just its rating.
What to know: Paris is our main area of expertise. Elsewhere in France and Italy, routes, suppliers and availability are checked before confirmation.
Tell us what is blocking you: a room setup, a complicated connection, different needs within the group, or a stay around an existing booking. We first establish whether and how we can help.
In practice: If two separate beds are essential, we check the actual room configuration rather than relying on a room name or a photograph.
What to know: For a focused request or an existing hotel booking, talk with Fred on a call or by email. We confirm a custom scope and total; we do not promise that every constraint or sold-out booking can be solved.
Your journey includes a Paris-based point of contact for your agreed itinerary, with WhatsApp support during your stay. We help assess alternatives and coordinate changes within the agreed arrangements.
In practice: If an arrival is delayed, we can help review what that changes for the transfer, first activity or dinner booking.
What to know: Contact arrangements are confirmed before travel. This is not a 24/7 emergency service or an accompanying guide; supplier change fees and availability still apply.
Planning, booking coordination and support are part of your journey. Your written proposal confirms the itinerary, inclusions, total and exclusions before you commit. Already arranged part of your trip? We can discuss a custom proposal around it.
An Italy planner who handles the bookings, not just the itinerary
Chic Trip combines custom Italy itinerary design with agreed ground bookings: hotels, intercity trains, restaurant tables, museum tickets, guides and transfers. Your planner speaks Italian and coordinates the journey as a whole. You approve the scope and costs before supplier bookings; international flights remain yours to book, with our route and timing advice.
Example brief: ten nights in Rome, Florence and Venice
A starting point could be four nights in Rome, three in Florence and three in Venice, with transfer days kept lighter. We check your flights and priorities before choosing that structure. If you want slower mornings or countryside time, we compare it with two bases instead. This is an illustrative route; rail services, hotel availability and museum reservations are checked for your dates.
Hotels and trains arranged, independent days protected
Chic Trip can coordinate the agreed hotels, intercity trains, private guides and transfers without turning every day into a guided tour. We identify the visits that need advance reservations, leave other periods open and show clearly which entries and transport are confirmed. Tell us how many guided hours you want, your preferred train class and what you would rather explore alone; every inclusion and price is approved before booking.
First visit: Rome, Florence and Venice, without daily repacking
Choose the number of bases from your usable nights, not a wish list of cities. We coordinate museum days, rail transfers, hotel check-in and meals in the same neighborhoods. A shorter trip may work better with two bases. You see the alternatives and what a third city would displace before the structure is agreed.
Northern Italy: Venice, Verona and one lake
This is Fred's strongest first-hand Italian ground. A Venice, Verona and lake route can balance art, food and quieter days. We choose the lake and shore around your onward journey, hotel access and local transport. One well-chosen lake stay can be more enjoyable than transferring between several lakes with your luggage.
Compare Italy planners on the same scope
Compare the hotel and room category, number of nights, cancellation terms, private or group visits, admissions, train class and transfers. Check whether personal planning, booking work and support during travel are included. Chic Trip confirms those details and your total in writing before you approve. A lower headline price is not necessarily the same trip, and we do not promise to beat every other quote.
France and Italy, coordinated as one trip
For a longer trip, we compare two or three well-chosen bases with more frequent moves, allowing for luggage, check-in, transfer days and the visits you care about. Hotels, train journeys, guides and independent days are coordinated in one itinerary. Complex or extended trips receive a written scope and tailored total, not an assumed all-inclusive package.
A Rome stay around your Mediterranean cruise
For a sailing from or to Civitavecchia, we can assess Rome nights and the port transfer as a separate land stay. We check your ship's actual timing, luggage and walking needs before recommending visits or another Italian destination. The cruise booking and its conditions remain with your cruise provider.
From your brief to confirmed reservations
Share your dates, priorities, pace, total budget and anything already booked. Your journey can cover Paris, France, Italy or a combination, entirely around you.
Start with a free call or an email. We discuss the help you want and prepare a tailored total proposal; no payment or price acceptance is required to enquire.
Review the itinerary structure, alternatives and estimated travel costs. We identify what does not fit, then refine the plan with you.
Approve supplier bookings as availability opens. Estimates are not reservations; each confirmation and its conditions are recorded in your itinerary.
Already booked your hotel or some tickets? We can build around them. Group tours, self-guided visits and private guides are chosen to suit your preferences and budget, not made private by default.
Your total, inclusions and conditions, clearly set out
Planning and coordination
Itinerary design, agreed restaurant reservations, booking coordination and support are included in the proposal for your chosen scope.
Hotels
Your proposal specifies the hotel, room category, included meals, taxes, price and cancellation conditions for the option you approve.
Restaurant reservations and official tickets
We recommend restaurants, refine the shortlist with your feedback and request approved tables. Meals and any restaurant deposits are specified separately from admission tickets included in the proposal.
Tours, transfers and experiences
Prices are confirmed before you approve. We specify the visit format and whether admission, transport, meals or tastings are included in each option.
Transport between destinations
Train journeys and ground transfers can be included in your proposal, with route, class and conditions specified. International flights are booked by you, with our advice on timing and route.
Who books what?
Before booking starts, we agree which reservations Chic Trip will handle, which you will make yourself and which are already confirmed. You approve the option, total and conditions before we proceed. Booking windows and supplier availability determine when a reservation can be confirmed. Your itinerary distinguishes suggestions, items awaiting approval and confirmed bookings.
