Lexi Blade is Juniper's Southern European specialist, covering Italy, Switzerland, Portugal, and Spain. She is Florence-based, which means the firsthand knowledge she brings to Italian itineraries isn't sourced from guidebooks — it's sourced from living there.
Lexi designs everything from Amalfi Coast honeymoons and Tuscany wine tours to Swiss Alpine rail journeys and Lisbon city escapes. Her approach to Italy in particular reflects years of deep local knowledge: she knows the Amalfi properties that actually deliver on their clifftop promises, the Tuscany villages that aren't on every other itinerary, and the restaurants in Florence that require knowing someone.
Her clients tend to describe the same thing: a trip that felt genuinely curated rather than assembled. That's the difference between a specialist who has been somewhere many times and one who has simply read about it.
"Lexi with Juniper Tours was excellent! She was responsive, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. She helped us plan a 2.5 week vacation to Switzerland and Italy. She gave great attention to the details which made our trip go smoothly. All her recommendations were perfect. I highly recommend her when planning a trip with Juniper Tours."
"Taste of Tuscany with Lexi. To say this was a neat tour is a understatement. Lexi did a wonderful job in coordinating everything to a tee. Every day was action packed with everything we needed to see. looking forward to my next adventure with Juniper Tours and Lexi"
