My husband and I were sold on Carlotta the moment she offered to Zoom with us to find out more about what type of trip to the Piedmont area we were interested in. I like to work with local travel agents when we travel, but none had ever offered that service, and we found it incredibly helpful as we were able to ask questions and find out more info about the area. Carlotta ended up, along with my input, putting together a superb 9 day itinerary starting with a stay in Turin, then moving on to the Langhe region and finally visiting Lake Orta on our final day before heading back to Milan for a flight out. Carlotta arranged private drivers for us, guides, truffle hunting, visits to vineyards, a trip to a cheese village, visits to a hunting castle and monastery and more!! She was ever ready to help if we had a question or issue during our time there. We would use her again in a heartbeat should we ever return. Our only regret is that she was totally booked by the time we worked with her so we never had the pleasure of her being our guide. Oh well, next time!! Grazie mille Carlotta!! Susan Brock Our experience with Carlotta was wonderful. Our private tour was unforgettable-from the interesting truffle hunt with a local expert and his dog, to lunch at a local restaurant, and a relaxing wine tasting at a beautiful family-run winery. Carlotta was knowledgeable, warm and made every moment feel special. Highly recommend Piedmont Tours Sheila Jenkins Had an incredible experience, would highly recommend! Lindsey McClenning Definitely Weill come back!!! Happiest experience ever Yuze Geng Carlotta made superb recommendations for tours and restaurants in the Piedmonte. She was superbly responsive to our requests and correspondence, and all the places we saw at her recommendation more than met expectations. I warmly recommend Carlotta and Piedmont Tours to anyone seeking to truly experience the wonders of Italy's Piedmonte. Phil Nizialek The Trip of a Lifetime Carlotta Prandi, the owner of Piedmont Tours, helped me plan a two-week trip of a lifetime! She arranged just about every aspect of the trip—airport pick up, hotels, train tickets, car rental, private city guides in Genoa, Turin and Venice (which is not in Piedmont)—and offered suggestions about restaurants, as well as arranging a truffle hunt and a visit to the Langhe wine region. The main reason for visiting Piedmont was to visit the birthplaces of my maternal grandparents (Castelnuovo Don Bosco and Cassine). With Carlotta’s help I found out the address of the home where my grandmother had grown up in Cassine. Everything went according to plan (other than missing one of my trains, my fault). Grazie mille, Carlotta!! E stato un viaggio bellisimo and truly memorable! Stephen Dolainski 5 star extremely personalized experience. Carlotta created an amazing itinerary based on what I advised we wanted to do and see. She helped with everything and was always accesible and willing go the extra mile. It was like planning the trip with a friend that had all the knowledge and connections in Piemonte. Got to do and see a lot of Piemonte in the time time I there. Grazie mille Carlotta & Piedmont Tours! Jeannine Carlo I had an amazing experience with Piedmont Tours! From the moment we reached out, Carlotta was incredibly helpful, responsive, and attentive. She went above and beyond to keep us informed, especially with updates on weather and logistics. The truffle hunt with Stefano and his dog Kira was seamless and thoroughly enjoyable. The level of personal attention and communication made us feel completely taken care of, and Carlotta’s dedication ensured everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Piedmont Tours for anyone looking for an unforgettable and well-organized experience in Piedmont. Five stars! Scott Solomon Our recent trip to Piedmont six adults, and Carlotta managed to keep all of us very happy indeed. She planned all the details for us expertly, giving us lots of good advice and suggestions along the way. She was always in good spirits, cheerful, and helpful, I could not recommend her services more highly. North Atlantic If I could rate Carlotta at Piedmont Tours higher than five stars I would! We reached out to her months before our trip based on the reviews we read. We could not be happier that we did. Carlotta worked with us from the very beginning to learn about our preferences and our vision for our amazing trip to the Piedmont Region. After several conversations she crafted a perfect itinerary for us. She created a trip with just the right balance of activity level and pace as well as just the right combination of amazing lodging experiences. She kept us in the loop along the way, always asking additional questions for clarification of our vision. She offered experiences we had never considered. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, the people, the history, the food, and the culture and knew how to direct us to anything we needed or wanted. We opted to have her make all of our reservations which made our trip very comfortable and easy. We never had a worry. Everything was planned to perfection. She even assisted us in making dinner reservations as we got closer to the trip. The level of detail that went in to the planning before the trip was exceptional. If that wasn’t enough the assistance and support that she offered us after we arrived was beyond helpful. Carlotta was such a fun person to spend time with on various tours. She is a delight. I suspect she would blend in to any group. She certainly did with ours. We had to beg her to spend more time with us because she was just fun to be with, besides being so helpful. We loved our time with her. She was easy to reach and always very responsive. She continued to make calls for us, adjustments to transportation and to reservations, etc. until the day we left. She made our trip easy, stress-free and seamless. We could not have had a better trip to Piedmont and it is all attributed to Carlotta. We highly recommend her for your trip to Italy. We are already deciding where we should go next so that she can spend the whole time with us! Amber Wooten
