A beautiful Sunday morning in Lucca watching life in Piazza dell Anfiteatro. Leisurely strolls are the best!

Second time to visit Pompeii.  Why? There’s always more to see and learn! Each guide has a different emphasis…priceless!

Viking ocean and river cruises are a favorite among my clients. We docked next to the lovely Viking Star in Napoli. While you can book on your own, let me handle the details for a seamless experience.

Want some advice? Take the tour! Sure, you can read about a city or know some history, but there’s nothing better than having a private guide or small group tour to really appreciate the culture and learn from a local!

I have been to Athens four times and finally visited the Acropolis with a private guide. What a difference! Can you imagine having a chef take you on a walking food tour? Priceless!

Any trip can be customized to really experience a culture, not just see it! Let’s plan together!

Words like these are why I love what i do:

“Many thanks to Iris Harp with Trips and Ships Luxury Travel for a truly magical vacation in the United Kingdom. From the dreaming stage to working with us to meet the desires of a group of five, every aspect of the trip was planned to perfection. Iris used our dreams and her extensive experience to craft a vacation that hit our request to balance group tours with times of leisure to explore on our own. The trip went so smoothly! The app provided along with hard copies of all documents made keeping us all on schedule and prepared at every step a breeze. The transfers provided for in-country travel were exceptional, even giving us great suggestions for local dining. Our time in England and Scotland was more than a lifelong dream. It became a wonderful reality that has us now dreaming of “what next”?

I GLADLY recommend Iris for any trip planning!”

I look forward to planning their ‘what next’ and yours! Let me take care of the details so you can enjoy the journey!!

Imagine being greeted with “Welcome home!” by the massaria owner…it is not a hotel and not a restaurant…you are a guest in their home amid a centuries old estate and 1000 to 2000 year old olive trees. Adding unique experiences should be a part of every trip!

Today we journeyed from Lecce to the heart of Puglia. First stop was to see four generations of tradition at a masseria and learn the history of the farm, along with the process of making mozzarella and burrata cheese.

The next stop was at the workshop of an artist who creates a modern version of light exhibits that decorate local village festivals. I even created one!

I love hearing stories of real life from people who are passionate about what the do!

We ended the day at another massaria that is also a beautiful hotel!
