What is Enjoy Marche?

Enjoy Marche is a group of people who live in the Italian region of Marche and know it from the inside. We advise where to go, when and who to see — and connect visitors with the farmers, winemakers and artisans we know personally. It is not a travel agency and it is not mass tourism.

Where is the Marche region?

Marche is a region in central Italy on the Adriatic coast. Barely seventy kilometres separate the sea from the peaks of the Monti Sibillini.

Are you a travel agency?

No — and we have no wish to be. We sell neither package tours, flights nor accommodation; you arrange those directly. We are consultants who live in the region: we listen to what draws you and tell you where to go, when and who to see — including meetings you cannot buy anywhere else.

Which routes do you recommend?

Routes from the Monti Sibillini national park through the Val d'Aso valley down to the seaside town of Pedaso — mountains, vineyards, olive groves and the Adriatic coast. They are not tours with a fixed programme: they are suggestions you can build your own journey from. You will find them under Itineraries.

What exactly will you do for me?

We listen to what draws you and turn it into a recommendation: which places and in what order, when is the best time for each, where it is worth staying and who to meet. We arrange the meetings with winemakers, oil producers and cheesemakers for you — that is the part you normally cannot buy. Bookings and payments go directly between you and your host.

How much does it cost?

For our work — preparing the recommendation and arranging the meetings — we issue a simple invoice or receipt, entirely transparently. You do not pay us for accommodation, transport or entry tickets; those you pay directly. We quote the exact amount according to scope, so just get in touch.

How can I contact you?

Write us a few lines through the contact form or at info@enjoymarche.eu and we will get back to you.
