About us

 

✋ We Said “Enough Is Enough” — And Started Something Better 👇

We’ve been doing day tours from Milan for years.
And one day, we just had enough.

“No more bilingual tours with 55 people crammed onto a bus.”

So, we launched Abroads Tours — a better, smarter way to travel.
Created by guides who care about the experience, not the crowd.

Here’s what makes our tours different from all the others 👇

✅ Small & Medium-Size Groups

12–30 people only
vs.
❌ 55  people on one bus

✅ One Language Only (English)

vs.
❌ Bilingual tours where you lose half the story

✅ Hidden Gems + Smart Timing at Famous Spots

vs.
❌ Same old tourist traps, packed and stressful

✅ Passionate Freelance Guides Who Love These Tours

vs.
❌ Burned-out staff guiding overcrowded tours they don’t believe in

👋 When I Travel, I Don’t Follow the Crowd

I always travel with a plan.
And when it comes to restaurants, hotels, or tours — I don’t trust the five-star hype.

💬 I read the bad reviews first. That’s where the truth is.
A lot of people give 5 stars just because the weather was nice or the views were pretty.

Not me.
When I leave a five-star review, it’s because the company and the guide truly deserve it.

And when I see a huge crowd?
I turn around and walk the other way.
