A unique Group Trip to explore the best kept secret of central Italy, hidden gems nestled between the regions of Umbria, Lazio and Tuscany.

Our base is a private countryside house surrounded by rolling landscapes — the kind of place where you can slow down, share a glass of wine in front of the fire place with your travel companions and actually feel that you’ve escaped somewhere.

This trip is especially designed for those travelers who want to experience something truly authentic and far from those tourist traps we all hate, in one of the most beautiful regions in the world, together with Monica, you Local Travel Coordinator, who will show you the real lifestyle, those typical flavours and restaurants, the small villages festivities made of local customs, the traditions…

What's special?

🇮🇹 Celebrate New Year like a local — because you’ll be celebrating with locals.

This is not a New Year trip where you simply visit Italy.

It’s a New Year celebration in the place where your Travel Coordinator was born and raised.

For four winter editions now, we’ve been bringing international travelers to this little corner of Italy to experience something very different from the classic Italian holiday.

You’ll explore medieval villages, eat recipes that belong to the territory, discover family-run places, meet local people and, when December 31st arrives, celebrate the beginning of a new year alongside the people who actually live here.

No touristy New Year’s Eve package.
No crowded big-city countdown.
No ticking off Italy’s most famous sights.

Instead, expect long dinners, local traditions, good wine, music, laughter and that wonderfully chaotic Italian way of celebrating together.

Because when you travel with someone who grew up here, you don’t just see a destination — you get invited into it.

🍝 Eat your way through the territory

Food is not an add-on to this trip. It is part of the journey.

From traditional Umbrian recipes and local wines to hidden restaurants and our GastroSecret experience, we’ll take you to places chosen because they tell a story about this region.

Expect handmade pasta, seasonal ingredients, local specialties, generous tables and plenty of opportunities to discover why Umbria is one of Italy’s best-kept culinary secrets.

And yes — you’ll probably leave with a few new favourite Italian dishes.

♨️ Slow down before the countdown

Before welcoming 2027, we’ll also make time to simply slow down.

The beauty of the Saturnia baths also lies in the idyllic setting in which they are found: they are overlooked by an ancient stone building, a former mill. The thermal water follows a journey of 40 years beneath Monte Amiata.

37.5°C water. Cold air. Rolling hills. Zero rush.

It’s the perfect reset before the celebrations begin!

⭐Life is Now⭐

Don't waste more time and book you virtual coffee!

By implementing “interviews” as a part of the travel process, Andiámonos wants to offer a more personalized and successful experience for both travelers and coordinators.

In fact, this brief video call can provide:

  • Trust and Safety: as it can help verify the identity of the travelers, ensuring they are who they claim to be. It can enhance trust and safety for all users, as you get to see and interact with potential travelers directly.
  • Personal Connection: it allows Andiámonos to establish a more personal connection with travelers and understand values and expectations. This can help ensure that the person is a good fit for the rest of the group and for the trip style.

You can’t travel in this occasion? We invite you to book the call anyway!

If you are not sure you want/can travel for this particular trip, it doesn’t metter, just book the call! Meeting the Andiámonos team will allow you to fully understand our travel philosophy and solve any doubt you may have. 

You will feel as you are having a nice and inspirational conversation with a new traveler & friend!

You may have observed there is no detailed itinerary in our trip pages. Well, actually it is not a mistake! At Andiámonos we don’t just copy-paste itineraries, as our aim is to offer atypical trips for our authentic travelers to live something unconventional and deeply connected with the local side of the world.

In the video call you will be given details on the itinerary and the full program will be sent to the confirmed travelers.

Don’t forget we are here to Slow Travel the world! Our mantra? Authenticity, flexibility and real connections!

FAQ's

1. Video call

If you are interested in any experience, you can easily schedule the brief meeting with Andiámonos, through the calendar you can find at the bottom of the trip page. In the call, you will have the chance to meet the Trip Coordinator and talk about your trip expectations, doubts, why you love traveling, hobbies and whatever! It will be a nice conversation from traveler to traveler!

2. Payment process

In case that’s the trip you are looking for, you are ready to book your spot paying just the 30% of the total amount. The rest of the amount will be paid 30 days before the departure. If you book your spot less than 30 days before the departure date, you will not pay the 30% deposit, but the entire amount.

3. We are ready to go!

As soon as the travelers crew is completed, a Whatsapp group will be created by your Trip Coordinator; this way you can get in touch with your future travel buddies and share useful information about your trip. The week before the departure, your trip coordinator will schedule a  video call with all the trip participants, to talk about the last details and solve any doubt out.

We are ready to go!

As travelers are coming from different Countries, flights to and from the destination are not included.

Life is better with flexibility! In fact, in this way you are free to decide the departure airport and the airline company, as well as if you want to stay more days in the destination, outside of the trip dates.

Before to book any flight, please be sure you have been informed by Andiámonos that the trip is officially confirmed.

To avoid huge age differences and personalize the experiences even more, Andiámonos trips are thought for people from 30 to 45 years old.  Anyway, if you are slightly younger or older and you think you are aligned with the trip mood, just apply through the calendly form. We will have then the possibility to see, through the video interview, if the experience is suitable for you.

Furthermore, in case we reach the minimum travelers number for your age group, we are happy to offer the experiences for people belonging to different age ranges. 

Last but not least, we offer you the option to personalize a trip for you and your group of friends/colleagues. Whether you have a specific destination in mind or you’re open to suggestions, our dedicated team is here to turn your travel dreams into reality.

For customized trips, you can contact us sending an email to monica@andiamonos.com

Workations are especially designed for remote working as we will work during the day and enjoy local experiences during the free time and weekends. No stress though! In case you are not a Remote Worker or you are, but you just want to enjoy some days off, you can have a look at the Group Trips, where we don’t work,  just play!

As you can imagine, this will depend on the destination (different prices in Italy than in Norway) and on your travel style (how many times you decide to eat and drink outside, if you want to have extra activities etc.).

Also, it depends on wheter you attend a Workation or a Group Trip, as the concept is totally different. In fact, during a Workation we use to cook in our shared kitchen and eat outside a couple of time, but again, we want everyone to feel free to choose the routine according to the personal habits. In the case of Group Trips is more usual to eat outside as we will be visiting the whole day, although you can also arrange some packed lunch to save money.

For us, flexibility is key and we want anyone to be able to attend a trip, without too many limitations for the traveler’s specific budget!

The Money Pot is a group deposit in local currency, managed and collected by your Trip Coordinator.

The amount of the Money Pot is around 150-300€ for the whole trip duration, but it changes according to the destination and duration of the trip.

Money pot includes:

  • Petrol and road tolls
  • Tourist taxes
  • Coordinator’s money pot share
  • Any extra activity that all members of the group agree on doing. Of course, if someone doesn’t want to participate in a certain activity, we will return that specific amount to the person who doesn’t participate in the activity. 
 

In case of any spare money, the remaining amount will be split equally and returned at the end of the trip.

We understand that plans can change, and we aim to be as fair as possible while covering the costs already incurred for organizing the trip.

  • Cancellations made 30 days or more before departure:
    You will receive a refund of 70% of the total amount paid, excluding any bank transfer fees. The remaining 30% is non-refundable due to trip-related costs already incurred.

  • Cancellations made between 29 and 15 days before departure:
    Your 30% deposit will be converted into a travel credit, which you can apply to any other Andiámonos trip within six months from the cancellation date. However, the 70% remains non-refundable due to pre-paid trip costs.

  • Cancellations made 14 days or less before departure (including no-shows):
    Unfortunately, no refund or credit can be issued, as all trip expenses have already been paid.

     

If you anticipate any changes to your plans, we recommend notifying us as soon as possible to explore the best options available.

Bank transfer fees associated with refunds will be deducted from the refund amount. Customers are responsible for any additional charges from their financial institutions.

Please be advised that the responsibility for booking and managing flight arrangements lies solely with the traveler. Any costs associated with flight bookings, changes, or cancellations are the individual responsibility of each traveler. Andiámons does not undertake responsibility for refunding or reimbursing any expenses related to flights.

What if Andiámonos has to cancel the trip as the minimum number of participants is not reached?

In that unlikely situation, you are free to choose between 2 possibilities:

  1. Ask for a refund for the entire amount you paid.
  2. Transfer the credit to another Andiámonos trip.

This decision is completely up to you!

In case you have any doubt, you can reach out to us sending an email to monica@andiamonos.com

Of course! 

You have the possibility to join an existing trip (in case there are enough spots available), or if you prefer, you can have a fully customized experience for your group. Feel free to send us an email to monica@andiamonos.com explaining your needs and we will be happy to find the best option for your amazing group!
