MILAN - From an idea of MANCINIWORLDWIDE, Connect2Italy is the new virtual lounge between B2B professionals in the tourism sector.
“In this last year, with the troubleshooting situation due to COVID-19, our virtual lounge closes with a +90% traffic, more than 500 new web pages launched and a readership increasing over +25% each month.
Our main target is travel experts, tour operators, opinion leaders and of course our Italian experiences” comments Vincenzo Pizzolante, co-founder Connect2Italy.
“After a massive international demand, and the new travel trends, we have uploaded magnificent Villas and Palaces, travel designers and new travel experiences, all integrated to make the trip to Italy more and more unique. Connect2Italy is aimed at local operators and excellences, as unique hospitality solutions to guarantee an unforgettable stay or trip. Come back to Italy!” says V. Pizzolante “Recently we have welcomed some brilliant names from Virtuoso and Travelers Made. From Canada Educational World Tours joined Connect2Italy, with Luiz Chimanovitch, which aim is to create custom travel itineraries to explore the different cultures, peoples and lifestyles across Italy. From Buenos Aires we welcomed Lloyd Transatlantico who has already booked two main trips, twice next year, for a total budget of over half million Euro. The prestigious Looking for Charly, based in Monaco with Simonetta Bertoni, has recently joined us, they are in Paris, Bruxelles, Lyon, Nice, Geneve and Luxembourg. Thanks to Le Magnifique Travel, we will welcome its unique Indian weddings and celebrations for Families coming from India and the Middle East. Asian Trails from Beijing will bring to Italy a selection of Chinese travelers, while Perfetto Travelers from New York will be able to embody an exciting new concept in the world of luxury travel”.
How it works: on the one hand, worldwide Tour Operators who habitually buy Italy and are always looking for new solutions and on the other hand, Italian tourism realities, with the possibility to get in touch with them directly, without having to attend international fairs or invest in building a network.
Besides, benefiting from the worldwide institutional relationships created in almost twenty years of tourism, those buyers present and active on the platform will benefit not only to increase their knowledge about Italy but as well to take part as Hosted Buyers to Italian International Fairs and Fam Trips.
"Connect2Italy gives you the possibility to stay directly in touch with Italian providers, like in a lounge, any operator can freely talk and interact with other members in order to understand better services and products, knowing better about local Italian excellences and customize tailor-made experiences, according to the international traveler needs," says Alessandro Mancini, Co-founder connect2italy.com .
The platform is online and operates 24/7. Every day is increasing the number of particular and unique solutions to organize an unforgettable trip to Italy for travelers.
