Agricamper Italia is a new initiative that supports rural tourism on the move. The aim of this startup, which has recently been launched, is to connect hosts, such as local producers, and guests through an experiential and sustainable travel formula, as a way of allowing tourists to discover rural realities in Italy.
By joining the national circuit of Agricamper Italia, which has an annual subscription of 29 euros, motorhome owners can stay free of charge for 24 hours in private facilities which can be viewed on the platform.
A multilingual website is already active and an app for both Android and iOS will soon be ready, which will allow travellers to always have access to updated data that can also be consulted offline: data include detailed descriptions of the accommodation facilities, services and products offered, comments, photos, access routes, reference addresses and GPS coordinates.
Agricamper allows you to stay in farms, vineyards, agritourism sites and other rural accommodation. By getting in touch with the owners of your chosen destination via the platform, you will also have the opportunity to discover more about the area, receive suggestions on the the treats that await you, taste the culinary excellence of the area and find out how you'll be able to support the local economy by buying typical products.
Pauline Nava, founder of the startup, explained: "When I moved to Italy I realised that there was still no type of network in the country that allowed to experience travel in a way that is more in touch with history, traditions and the territory of each region." Pauline decided to launch in Italy the formula used by the French network France Passion, which has been offering lovers of mobile tourism secure overnight stays among vineyards and farms since 1993. She also added that she "decided to set up Agricamper Italia to offer the many campers present in the country and abroad the possibility to benefit from a network that would guarantee hospitality, originality, local flavours and attention to sustainability".
