About us
The story, values, and vision behind Zeugma Travel
We believe in tourism that doesn't consume, but builds. We seek to inspire curious, aware, and respectful travelers, with experiences that leave a meaningful impact, both within and beyond.
Who is behind the project
My name is Ilaria and tourism has always been my world. After an academic path focused on this sector, with a thesis dedicated to sustainable tourism, I continued to train and work for years in the field of travel organization.
During that time, however, I often had the feeling of selling empty experiences, cookie-cutter packages for mass tourism that left nothing — neither for the travelers nor for the places visited. Clients rushing from one city to another, collecting photos and flags, but without truly connecting with the soul of the places.
So I decided to change course. Today I want to offer a different way of traveling: more conscious, more authentic, more respectful. A tourism that doesn't just "see" a place, but truly wants to discover it, through those who live there every day.
I'm building a network of organizations that share my same values — ethical, sustainable, real — to create together experiences that do good for those who travel and those who welcome them.
