Immerse yourself in curated Italian moments, whether here in California or across Italy.

We craft experiences that bring elegance, connection and authenticity to your table and your travels.

What We Offer

A terrace with historical frescoed walls, a round table covered with a white cloth and a vase with flowers, potted plants, and a view of green trees in the background.

Hosted Group Journeys

Small-group trips designed and hosted in Italy, with set dates and shared stays in villas or boutique hotels. Each journey is carefully curated around food, place, and local culture, creating a meaningful experience to join rather than plan.

Food & Cultural Experiences

Food, wine, and everyday culture are the foundation of every experience we design. From regional tastings and food walks to producer visits and cultural encounters, cuisine becomes the lens through which we explore Italy.

Stories, tips, and inspiration from Italy and beyond.

We created Luca Italian Experiences to bring people closer, not just to Italy, but to each other.

We’re not a big agency, and we don’t sell packaged trips. We’re local hosts, cultural translators, and trusted guides — helping you discover Italy as only Italians know it, while ensuring every detail reflects what you value.

Our Story

Every itinerary, dinner, or event we design begins by listening to your story, your tastes, and your pace. We then blend that with our own experience, built over decades of living in Rome and exploring Italy, and shaped by years of understanding what Americans love most about la dolce vita.

This isn’t about checking boxes. It’s about connection, something we’d be honored to share with you.
