Travel the “Little Roads” Way

Little Roads Europe personally crafts itineraries for travelers, for a relaxing, authentic and memorable trip: We’ll advise you from even before you leave your house, to the moment you step onto the plane to return home. We specialize in trips to small towns in Italy and Ireland.

The particular "Little Roads" travel style focuses on visiting small towns and little-known alternatives to the big tourist checklist destinations. We have extensively explored these small towns, their restaurants, B&Bs, castles, museums, sights, farms, and artisans – many of which have no online presence and can only be found by visiting in person.

Something that sets us apart from many travel planners is that we don't receive any percentages or kickbacks, so you can be sure we're recommending a place simply because we personally love it.

Ready to travel to Italy or Ireland? Let Little Roads Europe do the planning for you.

Our Services

Our Itinerary Service saves travelers countless hours of advance research and planning. In addition to a daily itinerary of what to see, do, and eat, we offer invaluable guidance: Advice on packing, buying flights, navigating the airports, renting your car (and driving it in a foreign country!), suggestions of lodging options... We even make your meal reservations for you, so your table is waiting at each unique restaurant you visit! And we're available to contact during your trip, if you’re running late to a meal reservation or lodging check-in, or if you ate too much at lunch and have to cancel dinner!

Planning a relaxing, memorable, immersive trip full of excellent food, fascinating sights, and unique lodgings is a huge amount of work… Start your vacation before you even leave, and let us do the hard part!

Our Guidebooks

Tuscany. Emilia-Romagna. Ireland. Italy’s Alpine Lakes.
Our award-winning guidebooks are beautiful, full-color volumes exploring the small towns, back roads, history and traditional food of these storied regions, while avoiding the typical tourist hotspots. Each guidebook makes a great companion to our itinerary planning services; and they’re written in a narrative style, so readers can also just sit back in their favorite chair with a glass of wine and transport themselves for a day.
