June 2025"The region’s been on the rise for a decade or more, but local experts say the Dolce & Gabbana show, which took place on a makeshift runway winding through the fairytale-like cottages, known as trulli, in Alberobello two years ago turbocharged curiosity. “We saw a 120% increase in booking from US clients from the region for 2024, after that,” said Ben Julius, who runs Tourist Italy. “And we already see a 50% increase on that for 2025.”
September 2025"From behind-the-scenes cultural tours to twists on classic locations, including a collection of hard-to-find experiences, Tourist Italy is the quintessential Italian tour company that knows every nook and cranny of this culturally rich European nation renowned for its ancient history, diverse and scenic landscapes, world-class art, fashion and exceptional cuisine."
June 2024"My day trip to the Tuscan countryside had been organised by Tourist Italy.
The company offers everything from packages with hotels, tours and transfers to individual tours you can book when you have made your own arrangements. After my six-hour outing in the Tuscan countryside, I arrived back in Florence, where I marvelled at the magnificent Duomo cathedral and strolled along the banks of Arno River, with its stone bridges such as the Ponte Vecchio."

Ben Julius is the founder of Tourist Italy, a travel agency specializing in custom tours, hotels and travel packages. ulius explains that early spring and late fall can often be rainy in the north, while the south (like Puglia), will typically have better weather, even if you’re not at the height of the season."
