All roads lead to Rome

The most popular tour is the Vatican Museums Untold History Tour, which focuses on classical sculpture, on the Roman characters from Latin Era and of course on Michelangelo’s art. More than one tours in Rome and an amazing discovery in Tivoli, where Emperor Adrian celebrated his homosexual love for Antinoo (Villa Adriana). 

The "Bel Paese"

In Italy there are historical sites in almost every location. In Milan it is very popular the DaVinci Untold History Tour, focused on Leonardo Da Vinci and his relationship with Salaì shown at the Last Supper and the Ambrosiana Gallery. You can stroll down the ‘Navigli‘, the riverland of the city, dotted with restaurants and bars.

In Florence the protagonist is always Michelangelo, in Taormina the Gran Tour, in Ischia the noble houses where gays were exiled. In Venice you will find yourself in the middle of Thomas Mann’s novel ‘Morte a Venezia’.
Exclusive, like any other Untold History Tour, is the one in Naples and the Amalfi Coast where we focus on the life of the sculptor called Vincenzo Moan. A gay artist from Naples who never came out as gay, but was very talented, especially in the making of statues representing homoerotic love between young men. n the suburban baths of Pompeii sex scenes are represented, including those between two men and two women. In Sorrento the protagonist is Torquato Tasso and his beloved student Ariosto.

A World of Stories

The Untold History brand also allows us to live and travel to other countries. Always paying particular attention to details from the past that help us to rediscover a hidden side of humanity, often marginalized, but always on the move.

Good examples of these movements are the San Francisco of Milk, the fights of lesbians in Boston, the history of American and Canadian universities and their students who have invented the Pride and have changed the history of international student movements, and the new side of freedom in Tel Aviv.
