WHO WE ARE: ORIGINS AND GOALS

Gialpi Travel founded on 1990, was the natural evolution of our career in tourism began 30 years ago as hoteliers in the Sorrento Coast. Since then, knowing both sides of the business, our goal has been to provide exceptional travel solutions to italian and foreign passengers. Constantly our expert staff search for innovative itineraries, unique packages to suggest, never losing the target of a good balance with price.

Our idea is that tourism is a complex system where suppliers, operators and passengers have each one an important role, so creating a chain of trust and reliability is our mission.
With 2 offices located in Naples and Rome and resident assistants in our planned destinations, we have direct control of the territory for a smooth and perfect service both for final passengers and tour operators. Long lasting and strong cooperation with hotels, carriers, bus operators and above all the direct control of thousands of beds all over Italy as we buy in advance rooms all over the country having in this way the best rate and the full availability.

Our strength is surely our staff: 30 skilled persons working with dedication and passion. They come from different cities in Italy and from different countries in the world so they know attitudes of passengers and have control of the territory. This is the key to serve better the passengers: an happy client is a loyal client.
