Suite Travel, the first network of co-branded agencies, will organize a trip for one hundred US students from the prestigious Wharton University, underscoring the role of travel agencies in bringing foreign tourists back to Italy.
The students will visit Apulia, Matera and Rome
Behind this initiative are Giada Marabotto and Antonella Ruperto, the founders of Suite Travel. The group of students will visit Puglia (Lecce , Galatina, Gallipoli, Ostuni and Alberobello) and Matera, and the exchange event promoted by the Wharton Italian Club in collaboration with Luiss Business School will also take in the capital on 20 May.
Experienced international staff
"We feel a great responsibility as tourism professionals - explains Giada Marabotto – and Italy deserves the attention and interest of the world. We are selecting international and highly experienced staff to be competitive on the main markets of the world. We already have Takeo Yajima, a Brazilian who has been managing groups from South America visiting Italy for years, and Sandra Woro from Indonesia, an expert in the Asian market. "
‘We would like to contribute to a real restart’
"We want to get this Suite Travel project off the ground - adds Antonella Ruperto - we are a benefit company, and we place a lot of importance on enhancing culture and locations. Tourism has suffered a lot with the pandemic, many highly experienced people have lost their jobs and we would like, in our small way, to contribute to a real restart.”
360° support for trips to Italy
The goal is to provide 360 ° service aimed at tour operators, travel agencies, associations and clubs who want to organize trips to Italy and, with this in mind, Giada Marabotto and Antonella Ruperto have selected fresh and interesting itineraries in various Italian regions, from Lazio to Liguria for unique and unforgettable experiences. From visiting Rome in an Ape calessino to cooking classes, Suite Travel's goal is to provide an original product capable of responding to the new needs of travellers.
