Perillo Tours

Since 1945, three generations of the Perillo family have perfected the art of traveling to Italy, making Perillo Tours America’s leading tour operator to Italy. Joseph Perillo began the company just after WWII with only $300 and a Remington typewriter; his hard work and integrity were key ingredients to its success. His son, Mario Perillo, known to many as Mr. Italy, pioneered the concept of tour packages and earned several awards of distinction. Today, Steve Perillo carries Perillo Tours into a third generation, promising to maintain his father’s and grandfather’s traditions of high quality and integrity in travel, so that Perillo Tours will remain an Italian-American Institution for many more generations to come.
