We are not a travel company. We are Italy, experienced differently.
Born from the land, driven by passion, defined by authenticity.
Luxury becomes meaningful when it connects you to something real.
Italy, lived as it was meant to be: intimately, respectfully, unforgettably.
Le Baccanti crafts exclusive, tailor-made travel experiences throughout Italy, merging the finest elements of luxury with a deep commitment to sustainability and authenticity.
Since 1999, we’ve been trusted by discerning travelers and travel professionals seeking immersive journeys beyond the ordinary.
Behind every extraordinary Italian journey lies a team of passionate professionals who know that luxury travel is built on human connection, cultural authenticity, and flawless execution. These are the architects of your Italian dreams — each bringing personal vision, regional expertise, and heartfelt dedication to design your perfect adventure.
Under the guidance of agronomist and entrepreneur Vanessa Held, Le Baccanti has redefined what it means to travel luxuriously – with purpose. Our experiences are designed to protect the land, honor its people, and leave a lasting, positive impact.
Whether you’re sipping rare vintages in a private Tuscan vineyard, foraging for truffles in the hills of Piedmont, or sailing the Amalfi Coast on a private yacht, your journey reflects a deeper commitment to place and people.
At the heart of everything we do are four guiding principles:
Authenticity
Real access to Italy’s cultural and culinary heritage.
Exclusivity
Private, carefully curated experiences just for you.
Sustainability
Travel that uplifts communities and protects the environment.
Personalization
Every journey tailored with care, co-created with you.
