PICCOLI ADVENTURES
Curated global journeys, local flavors and unforgettable moments.
LET'S PLAN YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE
Partner with me, Jennifer Coppolino, a personal Travel Advisor, to customize your perfect trip.
My niche is creating immersive travel experiences for clients. Events, programs, and accommodations that are unique to their needs, and not easily found in any guidebook. While I love sending travelers to major cities, filled with important landmarks - my real passion, is developing itineraries in lesser known regions and towns. At heart, I am a true foodie, so ensuring that my clients have bellies filled with local delicacies throughout their trip is my favorite part.
Yes, Italy is my favorite country to live, work, eat and travel in. However, my business is truly global and I support clients across the world.
SICILIAN SUNSHINE
With so many sun-drenched beaches to choose from, this unique island's vibes, landscapes, deserts and desserts elevate any summer holiday. Accommodations unlike elsewhere in Italy, are set among outstanding landscapes, making this island impossible to miss.
LIKE A LOCAL IN ROMAGNA + MARCHE
After living in this area with my now-husband, it is my favorite area to help friends and clients visit. Sandy beaches, fritto misto and cobblestone borgos differentiate this very livable area in Italy from its more highly touristed neighbors. While it continues to be off the beaten path for US tourists, it offers some of the kindest hospitality and best food in Italy.
THE BEST OF THE BEST
How can you visit Italy without seeing the Canals of Venice, Ceilings in Rome or Frescoes in Florence? While Italy's quintessential landmarks have been attracting visitors for literally centuries, your trip should be unlike anyone else's. Customizing an incredible journey through the country's highlights is my specialty.
BOLOGNA, VERONA AND AROUND
Smaller cities like Bologna, Verona, Ferrara, Ravenna and Padua often fall off of tours featuring just the major Italian highlights. However, their characteristics (ranging from true grit to ultimate sophistication), charm and cuisines should not be missed.
BUBBLES IN FRANCIACORTA
Dive into this lesser known wine region, perfectly positioned amongst northern Italian lakes, like Iseo and Garda. Taking a minimum of 18-months to make in the traditional "methode champenoise" style, this sparkling Italian wine is one of my absolute favorite beverages.
PRETTY PUGLIA - ORCCHIETTE, OCTOPUS AND BEACHES
If the idea of octopus and burrata sandwiches, and wild beaches gets you excited, than Puglia is for you. This white-washed region's popularity has recently taken off, offering a growing number of accommodations ranging from rent-able trulli (cone-shaped farmhouses) to all-encompassing 5* resorts.
AN AUTHENTIC AMALFI
Americans LOVE Amalfi. With so much to do, and so many tourists on the coast, relaxing and enjoying its natural beauty may prove more challenging than it seems. We can customize unique experiences in this part of the country that exceed expectations (and any other itinerary out there).
BARBADOS + ST. MARTIN TIE FOR MY FAV CARIBBEAN ISLAND
Clearly, I love Europe. So, why not combine its service levels, food quality, and deep culture with sand, barefoot luxury and palm trees? While I plan trips across the Caribbean, the swank of Barbados and the long white sand beaches on St. Martin's French side remain some of my favorite destinations.
LONDON, SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
A unique hotel for every style, family friendly Sherlock Homes tours, Sunday roasts, more monuments than one can count, and the greenest parks. London can be planned as a weekend getaway, but if you had months to explore it, you'd never see it all - which is why I love tailoring itineraries for all types of clients in this city.
EAST COAST TRADITIONS:
NYC, STAYCATIONS, FLORIDA
Most of my life I've lived in and around NYC. This means, as soon as winter hits, I'm ready to fly south to escape the cold. And that I leverage every 3-day weekend into an a chance escape the city's chaos. From truly local staycations in upstate NY, Connecticut's hills and the Jersey Shore, to stretching a bit further, to places like Maine or Florida - there is never a shortage of places to explore.
OTHER DESTINATIONS....
While places like Portugal, Spain, and France continue to also be top destinations for my clients, smaller countries like Slovenia and Malta are receiving more inquiries. The world is a big place, get out there and see it!
