Creative Edge Travel is about slowing down to connect with what makes Italy Italy— its people. We know from experience that what you'll remember most are the interesting locals you meet on your adventure. That's why we couple unique activities with opportunities to connect with locals in a meaningful way. We go beyond the typical tourist sites to off-the-beaten-path villages and farms where our friends and artisans are waiting to share their way of life with you!

I cannot say enough about this trip! It truly was the trip of a lifetime. The food, the people, the beautiful locations. I will never forget it. Sierra from Creative Edge travel does such an amazing job arranging absolutely everything.. Amy and Brad Katnik

Creative Edge Travel curates a very unique trip. Avoiding the tourist traps she takes you to small towns and villages creating exceptional interaction with the local people. We were accommodated by small local B&Bs with a love for hosting visitors. We were greeted with enthusiasm and love. We never felt like tourists, old friends. Every host went out of their way to create an atmosphere of comfort and excellence.
If you are a seasoned traveler or your first time traveling, Creative Edge Travel will introduce and show you places you would never experience without her experience and love of Italy. I cannot recommend this company enough.

The absolute best vacation tour, not just sightseeing but full on culture immersion and getting to know the people of Italy. A must do tour for anyone.

Sierra is a great organizer. The outings were well planned. We met very interesting people. The cooking class was so interesting! Her schedule gave us some time to rest and visit on our own. Of course the group blended together very well. I strongly recommend her trips !

5 stars don't begin to describe the amazing 8 days I had with Sierra in Tuscany. It was my second trip to Tuscany and I thought I knew how wonderful it would be to soak up Tuscan culture again. NO, Sierra's trips are not like any I have ever experienced. The trip was full of love, joy, and appreciation. There were no lines or crowds so that one couldn't appreciate anything. Music, wine, food, laughter, learning, new friendships, moments to reflect, these are what Sierra gave me.
Thank you Sierra
