Roots Travel

Discover your roots

Its family heritage immersion experience is a family heritage event that is created in the form of a journey that takes a person or a family back to their family roots and hometown to experience their ancestors and regional folklore and culinary traditions and, when possible, also meet living relatives if present.

It is a completely new emotional travel experience focused on reconnecting with one’s origins and allows travelers to become fellow citizens with their ancestors in their hometown, this experience can be for one or more days.

It is a journey of self-discovery and family roots with a personalized and unique perspective of real and traditional Italy.

We have created an itinerary away from conventional tourism to provide a more authentic and personal experience.

An unforgettable experience

We give you the opportunity to experience deep emotions, develop new long-term family relationships and make Italy a home away from home.

The cities, towns, events, and popular culture of the home country are the main destinations for tourists, as our goal is to make you feel part of the host community.

In this way, you can immerse yourself in the lives of your ancestors, including through guided tours, food and wine tours or workshops on traditional cuisine and ancient crafts.

This experience allows you to imagine everyday life in your homeland, the motivations that led your ancestors to emigrate abroad.
