About Esplora Travel

We specialise in escorted journeys for small groups of guests in some of the most interesting corners of the Mediterranean and the Caucasus. Founded in 2010 by Damian Croft, we have become known for our attention to detail and enthusiasm for the places we visit.
Our aim is to guide our guests to a greater appreciation and understanding of the places they visit, whilst at the same time making sure that their holiday is relaxing, enjoyable and fun. We introduce you to some of the more unusual foods, the undiscovered sites, the hidden cultures of the places we visit.

  • Alice

    Sicily tour guide

    Born and raised in the heart of Sicily, I am a native of Caltanissetta. I graduated in classics from the University of Bologna and have a postgraduate master’s degree in art history and archaeology from the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in Paris. I also studied for one year in Seville and took part in archaeological digs all around the Mediterranean before choosing to return to my roots to become a licensed professional tour-guide. I have always enjoyed promoting archaeology and art to the general public: I also teach history and archaeology and have been co-curator of exhibitions as well as authored many publications.

    Sicily tour guide

    I feel privileged to show guests around my lovely islands Malta & Gozo and many other European cities as I am doing the things I love; being with people, taking you around fantastic historical sites and talking about the historical, cultural, architectural aspects of the particular site. I studied International Relations at the Universita’ ta’ Malta and I also have a Masters in the same subject but the pull of history has always captivated me and I am always researching and reading new material on European history.

  • Lisa

    Tour Manager

    I’m Lisa, I come from a small village in the Emilian hills, but I’ve always had the travel bug. After 7 years abroad, I decided to come back, and to dedicate my passion for wandering, working as a tour leader. I’ve been doing it for 2 years and I love it! I am meeting a lot of new people, get to know different cultures and exploring my beautiful country.
  • Rosario

    Sicily tour guide

    Born and raised at the feet of Etna, I graduated in history without knowing what I could do with my studies in the workplace.
Since 2007 I have been one of the most active members of Couchsurfing in Catania which is a free hospitality site. This was my personal way to bring the world to my little village on the hills of Etna, hosting people from all over the world.
