What people love about Assisi Tours
- 5-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
We booked a small group tour, advertised as 12 people in a minibus, we were actually 43 people on a standard large coach. We enjoyed the tour anyway, the coach was comfortable and radio transmitters and headsets made it possible to follow the commentary from the back of the group. Our guide Lucy, was very friendly and helpful and organised everything well, including wake up calls! There was however, some pressure to join optional activities, at extra cost. We went to Pisa and an excellent local guide made it an enjoyable experience. We were upgraded to be in Venice rather than Mestre, and the hotel there was especially lovely. The standard hotel in Florence was very pleasant but a bus ride away from the city centre. The set meals improved as the tour went on but only the final lunch in Montepulciano was above average. The included activities were mainly visits to cathedrals and basilicas with their incredible art. Some variety would have been good e.g. the Doge's palace in Venice. The 5 day tour didn't include any activities in Rome though we could have bought Vatican museum or sightseeing bus tickets by the same tour company, before we arrived. Overall it was a great way to see some of Italy's most picturesque towns / cities in a short time.
- The Marco Polo
An excellent way to visit Italy as a first time visitor. The tour was paced perfectly so as not to be too overwhelmed with sightseeing-the agenda was manageable and the options were appreciated. The hotels were perfectly acceptable and the food was fine.
- Italian Holidays
The first day was not to our liking. Our nephew's flight was delayed and cancelled due to weather. We asked if he could be picked up later and was told it would cost 244 Euros to help us out! The hotel we were staying in was kind enough to offer to do that. 244 Euros was an out outrageous amount to charge help a client out! Also the stop in Gubbio was a waste of time. Other than that, out guides were good.
