Italea

Italea is a project dedicated both to those who already know their Italian origins and want to organize a trip to discover and rediscover the places, customs and culture of their ancestors, and to those who need to identify them, and who will be able to make use of a network of reliable genealogists.

The name Italea derives from “talea”, a practice by which a plant is allowed to propagate. By cutting a part of it and replanting it, it can be given new life, making new roots grow: just as happens with migrations.

This program represents the gratitude of the “mother plant” to its flowering in the world.

Italea Calabria

Welcome to Radici in Viaggio: our history and our mission

We are a passionate group of 11 professionals linked by a deep love for Calabria, its communities and its fascinating territories. Our story begins years ago, when we began to work tirelessly in the region, trying to discover, preserve and share the authentic roots of this extraordinary land.

We have come together to create Radici in Viaggio Srl, a social enterprise born from the desire to offer travelers a unique and structured experience, immersing them in the authentic traditions and riches of Calabria. Our goal is to go beyond just tourism and create meaningful connections between visitors and local communities.

What sets us apart is our long-term commitment to the region. With years of experience in the field, we have developed a deep understanding of the local dynamics and traditions that make Calabria unique. Each member of our team brings with them a unique passion for enhancing cultural roots and promoting environmental sustainability.

With the Italea project, the journey to your roots, we want not only to offer unforgettable experiences to travelers in search of their family stories, but also to raise awareness among local communities on the importance of enhancing their cultural roots. We work closely with communities to promote sustainable initiatives, preserve cultural heritage, and create local economic opportunities.

Our social enterprise is the result of years of dedication and passion for Calabria. We pride ourselves on being a bridge between travelers and the authentic experiences this land has to offer. Join us on this journey to discover Calabria’s roots and help preserve its heritage for future generations.

Thank you for being part of our history and for sharing with us the wonderful journey through the roots of Calabria.
