Discover Italy Like a Local With Alessia, Elena, and Susanna
We’re thrilled to officially introduce you to a brand-new project: FTIC Wanderlust, a fresh and authentic way to explore Italy from the inside, just like locals do. Because this is what you want from a vacation, the most you can get from your time and money. I know we do.
Behind FTIC Wanderlust are Alessia, Elena, and Susanna, three Italian women who live, breathe, and truly love this beautiful country. Born from their passion for Italy and their desire to share its lesser-known treasures, FTIC Wanderlust is dedicated to uncovering hidden gems through meaningful, immersive experiences far from the usual tourist paths.
Their mission is simple: to guide you beyond the map. FTIC Wanderlust wants to bring you into the heart of Italy, with hands-on culinary adventures in the countryside, exclusive access to local artisans, and unique experiences that connect you deeply with the communities that make Italy what it is.
Two Tour Collections to Choose From
As a result of their efforts, they created two special tour collections: (links at bottom of post)
Each collection features three carefully crafted tours designed to help you feel every corner of Italy, not just see it. Expect immersive, experiential travel where authenticity, culture, and connection guide every step. Hence, why you will discover Italy like a local – just as the title of this post says.
To ensure you experience Italy at its best, they’ve partnered with a trusted Italian travel agency with over 30 years of experience. Deeply rooted in the territory, they bring invaluable local expertise to every itinerary. Together, they have created tours that reveal the real Italy: intimate corners, flavors, stories, landscapes, and traditions you won’t find in any guidebook. Because of their connections, you will have the best experiences!

Think of them as your Italian friends, ready to show you where to go, when to go, and how to avoid the crowds while experiencing Italy with heart, depth, and authenticity.
