Magari Tours Launches 2026/27 Programme
Magari Tours’ escorted tour programme features five key regions of Italy including Tuscany, Lombardy, Umbria, Puglia and Sicily with the additional exclusive departures available across all. Under the Magari Team’s guidance, agents can control their passenger numbers, tailor the departure airport to suit clients* and only need to commit once clients’ deposits have been received after advance promotion. Agents can also travel with their clients on the tour to build strong relationships and develop their own brand.
To meet increased demand for authentic cultural excursions, further enhancements have been made to the immersive experiences in the 2026/7 programme by working with exclusive suppliers and individual agrotourism farms and wineries. Just some of the new experiences include dairy farm visits to see mozzarella being made using generations-old recipes, an outdoor pasta making class in an ancient orchard and being driven in a classic Italian car.
Tony Flanagan, Director of Product & Sales, Magari Tours commented: “Based on the positive feedback from our inaugural exclusive tour, we are delighted to provide the same opportunity for other agents. Being able to offer the flexibility to manage their own tour and tailor flights puts agents in a strong position. No other agent in their area will be selling the same departure date. It really is the perfect way for our partners to provide clients with their dream authentic escorted tour to Italy.”
He added: “We are passionate about providing ‘off the beaten track’ sustainable and truly authentic adventures for clients. By enhancing our local excursions, we ensure our itineraries reach the heart of a region as clients meet locals and discover more about their way of life, culture, food and heritage. We are working with suppliers who share the same passion for showcasing sustainable culinary experiences and hidden gems which are not included in more mainstream tours.”
Escorted tour prices lead in at £1995 pp** based on the six night The Secluded Tuscany with March, May, June, September, October 2026 departures. Based at the four-star Grand Hotel Impero in Castel del Piano, the tour provides an insight into lesser-known Tuscany as well as must see Siena and Montepulciano. For a true taste of Tuscany visits to artisanal estates for delicious olive oil, wines and cheese tastings as well visits to ancient Orvieto and seaside town of Castiglione della Pescaia are some of the highlights.
Magari Tours operates small group tours with a maximum of 19 participants in the shoulder seasons when the weather is ideal for sightseeing, destinations are less crowded and traditional food & wine festivals take place. The choice of tours features off the beaten track ‘hidden gems’ and lesser-known locations with stays at handpicked hotels where food, authenticity and sustainability are the focus.
Magari Tours works closely with the UK travel trade to offer agents a range of benefits. As well as exclusive tours, agent training and client events are also available. Magari Tours is a member of AITO and is ATOL and ABTOT protected. To work with us call 01732 879199.
