Why NicoTour
NicoTour was founded to share authentic areas in Italy that are not the usual destinations for Americans. Rome, Florence and Venice are treasures and are not to be missed. But where do you go from there?
Italy was not a country until approximately 150 years ago and has a rich history of many distinct population groups dating back to prehistoric times. It is a collection of unique and beautiful regions that often call themselves a country only when necessary.
The immense regional variety was created due to past invasions, influencers, and foreign rulers. Also we cannot forget the omnipresent cultural roots of the Roman Empire.
Geographically the peninsula is 75% mountains and hills, and also includes several islands; the largest and most culturally distinct being Sicilia and Sardegna. The numerous microclimates in Italy contribute to a wide variety of flora, fauna, and culinary traditions.
I invite you to explore the regions highlighted here.
