What people love about Italy Tours from Rome
- Mamma Mia! - 13 Days/12 Nights
My trip with italy on a budget was awesome! They were very helpful with communication and had all accomodation, transport, optional tours, etc outlined in a package on my first day. The tour leaders are friendly and helpful and genuinely care about your experience on the tour. I would have liked to have spent more time with them. For my first time to Italy I think 13 day Mamma Mia was the perfect way to see as much as possible. I just wish I had more time! The accomodation in Florence was amazing and the views from the campground in Sorrento were stunning.
- Classical Italy
Only problem when called emergency number thinking we get help. I and another person got lost. They made it more frustrating thinking we will get help, we asked the company to give us our tour guide number so we can call her but they said it wasn't allowed. After this incident Abby show us the location then give us a map like she did in Rome. Other then that was a great tour.
- 5-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
We had a great five days with our tour director Stefano, and our excellent driver Luigi. Stefano was outstanding at his job, he was very informative and always patient, and kept everything running smoothly. We appreciated how he took care of all the details, even writing out the city bus instructions on our itinerary in the lobby of the hotel in Mestre! This tour is an excellent way to see a lot in a short period of time. We visited many more towns than I would’ve ever seen if I’d planned it myself! The hotels were both clean and convenient, and we were lucky to have a small group on the bus, so we had lots of room to stretch out.
