- Best of Italy (Summer)
We met the most amazing people, saw the most magnificent sights and experienced Italy in the best possible way......with our awesome Tour Director Marisa and Trafalgar.
- Italian Scene (Summer)
Trafalgar were very professional and very welcoming when we first me our Tour Guide at the Hotel in Rome. We quickly made friends with other tour participants and our Tour Guide was very informative wherever we stopped plus getting us to meet "promptly" before we departed to the next place. We had a ball in Tuscany where we all "let loose" and had a lovely meal and plenty of wine in the hot, sunny Tuscan hill restaurant, dancing the day away!
