Andrea Szyper

As Communications Director, I coordinate our marketing and social media, oversee client correspondence and publications, and manage website content. I am working hard to improve our website, share more travel resources, and make trip planning easier and more fun.

I like to tap the vast experience of our staff and loyal customers to create compelling and useful content for our website, email newsletter, catalog, guidebooks, and blog. I enjoying telling the stories of other cultures and promoting thoughtful travel. If someone appreciates a place more because of an insight they’ve gained from our website or publications, I have done my job!

Before my shift to communications, I spent many years developing and coordinating our Italian programs. I helped to start our Untours in Venice, Florence, Rome, Umbria, and Amalfi (and also Vietnam many years ago). I love setting up new programs, especially urban ones, as I am a city girl at heart.

In my off hours I freelance, work on my own blog, and write about Philadelphia for SpottedbyLocals.com. I also enjoy art, yoga, gardening, and hanging out at my son's soccer and little league games. I love how Untours allows me to work from home and flex my hours. This company really values work-life balance!
