Experience the magic of Italy like it’s truly meant to be.
Perfectly imperfect.
Join us around the table to share the food, wine and story of Italy.
Meet Tonic
We’re sharing what life really feels like in Italy.
Slow meals at local trattorias, local wine bars, evening aperitivos in bustling cafes. This is Italy, unfiltered, and we are inviting you to join us.
Let’s get our souls and plates dirty. Get to know Italy the way it was meant to be— through food. Let’s mangia, mangia. Our private experiences invite you to sit around the table with us. We’ll talk with our mouth full, drink too much wine, share our stories, and show you little spots we love.
If you crave authenticity, food, wine, and a side of real conversations and connection, this is the experience for you. We’ll sip great wines and cheap wines alike. We’ll eat what’s in season. We’ll meet local people, and savour passed-down recipes and locally-made products.
The experience
Travelling to Italy? Join us for a private, handcrafted experience that celebrates the flavours, stories, and soul of Italy.
Italy was never meant to be a clean or tidy, an Instagram version of perfection. The real Italy has deep layers. It’s messy and wild steeped in mind-blowing history. It’s tough and gritty, alongside unfathomed beauty. It’s desperate and simple, yet fiercely passionate and alive.
It’s perfectly imperfect, and that’s the Italy we want to share with you. Life, food and connection, just as Italy intended.

Wine Tasting + Lunch
We’ll start in a local wine bar for a tasting of wines soulfully curated just for us. We’ll savour lunch at a local trattoria that makes in-season meals from scratch, and share recommendations and stories.
Aperitivo + Dinner
Through thoughtful itineraries, we’ll explore Italy, enjoying the food and history of what makes this country, and this lifestyle, so unforgettable. You’ll learn how to slow down and enjoy conversations, experiences and connections.
Scenic Local Picnic
As weather permits, join us for a unique day you’ll never forget. We’ll curate local food and wines and set up a beautiful picnic in the park, where we can share bites and sips with a view
