About A&K Italy & Croatia
Located in Florence, the A&K Italy & Croatia team comes together from the four corners of Italy and indeed from around the world. Between us our expertise and passions include tailor-made travel, luxury hotels, deluxe villas, bespoke group and incentive travel as well as tour series management and personal concierge services across Italy and Croatia.
While every enquiry and guest is an individual with a tailor-made programme, the same principles of quality apply to every booking, be it a private shore excursion or corporate group. We provide imaginative destination management solutions to meet and exceed every client's expectations with experiences delivered to the highest standards at a competitive price.
With longstanding personal relations throughout Italy and Croatia we deliver these services from tip to toe, as well as on the islands. Quality is guaranteed under the care of our unique Guardian Angels, local staff situated throughout Italy who understand the requirements of international guests. We contract and hold allotments with the finest 5* and 4* deluxe hotels across both countries. We have a rigorous selection process for our local guides to ensure your clients really do experience Italy and Croatia's best known, and also lesser known, areas in depth.
