"Well, I think I would argue that Italy perhaps has it all,” says Odysseys Tour Director Igor Ribic, when asked what he most loves sharing about the country with his guests. “To begin with, it has one of the most beautiful and diverse landscapes in the world ... and when it comes to art, Italy has no equal. And then Italy is a country with a delicious and authentic national cuisine ...”

All of this is to say that Igor is in his element as a tour director. He explains, “I most enjoy presenting to guests a reality perhaps slightly different than theirs, different food and drinks, different customs and ways of life. I absolutely love how curious guests are not only about history and highlighted attractions but about everyday life too – their questions about how we live today are probably my favorite!”
“Igor gets an A+++."

A native of Croatia (“I take pride in presenting myself as Istrian!”), Igor keeps busy when not working with trekking, yoga, foraging for mushrooms and wild asparagus, cooking, and reading. “And yes,” he adds, “traveling myself when I can make the time."
