Traveling to rediscover yourself, traveling to cultivate your faith in a new and original way, or more simply traveling to disconnect from the frenzy of work and cities, finally giving yourself a break for wellness and inner peace. All these experiences are connotations, different yet profoundly similar, of an interesting new branch of the world of travel and tourism of which Italy is the main protagonist: it’s spiritual retreat.

In recent years this tourist phenomenon has been constantly rising, an effect of the growing attention of some kinds of travelers from all over the world towards new intense, strictly personal (and personalized) travel experiences, seeking places of the heart and destinations capable of inspiring and exciting. An opportunity that puts the most spiritual side of travel back to the core, redesigning the patterns of Italian tourism from north to south.
