How LivTours Got Started
The story of LivTours begins in 2004 when Angelo Carotenuto started leading tours in Rome. He quickly discovered he wanted to share his passion for art, culture, history, and Italy with others. In 2009, Angelo crossed paths with Kristin, a logistics expert from Sweden, in the vibrant streets of Rome. In 2011, fueled by their love for Italy and a shared desire to create meaningful travel experiences, they founded ‘LivItaly Tours’, now LivTours.
LivTours initially offered semi-private and private tours in Rome, Florence, and Pompeii. Responding to the strong desire for customized, small-group experiences led by top-rated guides, the company expanded its curated offerings to Spain in 2017, France in 2020, England in 2021, and Austria in 2023. With their unique private and “semi-private” (six people, maximum), LivTours became synonymous with intimate and carefully crafted experiences. As LivTours has expanded throughout Europe, they remain dedicated to offering tours and experiences that are well-priced, customizable, and accessible.
Sustainability has always been a key factor for LivTours and the company is now a member of GreenStep Sustainable Tourism, a GSTC-accredited certification body. Where large group tours both exploit local heritage and put micro-economies through boom and bust cycles, LivTours’ small group tours are designed to reduce negative impact, authentically explore local culture, support small businesses and give back to the local community.
As of 2024, LivTours offers over 350 unforgettable tours and experiences across Italy, Spain, France, England, and Austria. When travelers choose LivTours, they select from a wide range of experiences: from walking tours of historical centers to cooking classes, and from visits of museums and monuments to exhilarating helicopter and boat adventures.
