All roads lead to Rome, or start from here in the case of Walks, Italy's leader in small group tours. In this episode of Ciao Bella, Erica sits down with Stephen Oddo, co-founder and CEO of Walks, a tourism empire that marries modern “digitourism” with classic small group tours. Steven talks about entrepreneurship, the Walks philosophy, and how his company is collaborating with local communities in Rome and around the world to fight the effects of overtourism.
