My Story

A curios, enthusiastic traveler myself, I love creating unique experiences for my clients — and I curate every detail meticulously. Whether it's arranging a special surprise awaiting in their cruise stateroom or ensuring VIP treatment at their hotel, I want my clients to feel truly pampered during their dream trips! Also, as a Lake Como native, I love to share its hidden gems with visitors.

My Travel Style

Someone labeled me ‘Renaissance Traveler’, and I like it! I’m curious about beauty, culture, experiences, places, art, design. I love wandering off the beaten path for that chance encounter or a rare find. Sometimes I wish I was all eyes.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Francesca, our incredible travel advisor! She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure our travels are seamless and stress-free. We are so happy she recommended Backstage Hotel Vernissage! We are so appreciative of her arranging our dinner reservations, transfers, and train tickets to handling any unexpected issues with ease, Francesca is always there, making sure everything runs smoothly. We’ve worked with her on multiple trips, and her expertise, professionalism, and warm, personal touch make every experience exceptional. Our extended family has used her services as well, and they all agree—she is simply the best! We truly could not organize our travels without her. If you’re looking for someone who takes the hassle out of travel and turns every journey into a dream, Francesca is the one! We consider her as family...an absolute Godsend! Thank you for another fabulous holiday!~

Best travel agent I've ever worked with! She'll be our only one from now on. Highly recommend Francesca! She plans out every detail and is very responsive and attentive throughout the process and the trip itself.

Francesca helped plan our entire 2-3 week trip to Barcelona, Venice, Florence, Elba, and Sorrento. In the initial stages of planning, she and I spoke for 1-2 hours about me and my family...our likes/dislikes, must see/do list, and financing. She then came up with an itinerary of activities, tours, places to stay, and restaurant options for eating. We then discussed the options she had presented us, and she put together the perfect trip for our family! She booked everything from train tickets, hotels, private car transfers, boat rental, tours, activities/shows, and even made all of our restaurant reservations! She put it altogether with all of our vouchers and tickets into an app that we could look at and see detailed plans and descriptions of each day. There were even maps that showed walking routes from our hotels to meeting points for excursions and restaurants. She thought of every detail and emailed us each morning to remind us of what times we needed to leave and things like "make sure to bring some water as it will be hot today." She was available to us throughout our trip and responded immediately when we had a question (which was only once about a hotel charge discrepancy that she took care of right away.) I will definitely be using Francesca for my future travel, and I highly recommend her to everyone!
