Our Story
We created Simione Travels for 2 reasons:​ firstly, to make travel more accessible, and secondly, to share our passion for the world's most stunning regions.
​​
We believe that this world belongs to all of us, and our travel advisors listen to you to ensure that each itinerary fits your desires, timeline, budget, and comfort level. Further, we strive to emphasize the beauty that traveling can offer, while making the stress of planning and coordinating disappear. Our knowledge and thorough investigations ensure that you'll make Simione Travels your first call for your travel needs.
Mission
Our mission is to create uniquely personal travel experiences while also respecting the cultures and the locations we visit.
We can guide you through centuries-old abbeys and to sip delicious wines while also appreciating the cultural richness of contemporary communities. We can take you sailing along the shores of the North Sea while also connecting you with services of the highest quality. We know this is possible because we have done it- time and time again. We believe that pleasure travel and ethical travel are one in the same.
Sarah Simione
Founder & owner
​Sarah is an experienced operations manager and traveler advisor and is originally from New York. She grew up in a Sicilian family filled with chatty uncles, loud holidays with cousins, and delicious Sunday dinners. She has been inspired by her own cultural background as well as others and received her Masters in Cultural Heritage in Rome.
​
She continuously immerses herself in cultures and languages and her favorite question to ask is "what is authenticity?". This is exactly what we ask ourselves whenever we start a new itinerary. Her professional goals include successful tour management for both groups and individuals, and product development. She leads her team in providing you with substantive experiences and optimal care for your trip North, South, and everywhere in between!
Here she is in Vatican City with St. Peter's Basilica in the background.
