KM Zero Tours: Zero Kilometers Between You and Genuine Human Connection

The region of Tuscany named Chianti boosts soft, rolling green hills, chestnut forests, vineyards and olive groves set amongst welcoming Cypress trees. It is here we find Km Zero Tours, a boutique tour company specializing in slow travel. All their tours are aimed at making meaningful connections and memories with the cultural heritage of their Tuscan region. They thoughtfully choose locations, farmers and artisans rooted in the ancient flavors and passions of tradition to visit with their guests.

 

In this episode, I talk with Arianna Cini of Km Zero Tours about why and how they have joined the slow travel movement. To begin, their company name symbolizes a “zero kilometers” relationship between travelers and the farmers and artisans of their region. It embodies their philosophy of genuine stories, and the enriching impact of uncompromised, sustainable and honest travel. The heart of travel is human connection and we discuss how they accomplish that for each and every guest, including children.
