Our Vision
Geekz started its journey by envisioning a world with no mass tourism, but personalized traveling, at scale. While tourists are flocking to the city centers and hotspots, locals are drawn away to avoid the crowds, and enjoy their local life. This is where Geekz comes in. Connecting with locals gives you the chance to engage with the culture of a place first-hand, together with the people who know it best. Our authentic experiences let you dive into local life through food, including traditional lunches and dinners, hands-on cooking classes and immersive market tours, which take place in towns and cities throughout Italy. As every experience is tailor-made, there’s something for every travel lover. We’re so proud to create unforgettable moments for thousands of people on their travels.
