What people love about Rome to Venice Tours
- Mamma Mia! - 13 Days/12 Nights
It's a great tour if you like full days and seeing as much as possible in a short time. All the guides were excellent! Very friendly and knowledgeable. All the accommodations were in great locations. Could easily walk everywhere (which you do tons of on the trip). We really enjoyed ourselves on this trip, and we would recommend this tour company to our friends.
The classical Italy trip provided a comprehensive tour of Rome, Florence and Venice. Our tour guide Chiara was outstanding and helped each participant with any questions during the trip. The hotels were excellent. I would recommend this tour company to my friends.
Classical Italy
- Mamma Mia! Best of Italy
This tour was sooo good. Only problem was that it felt way too short. Every destination had its own charming/uniqie features. My personal favourites were Rome and Venice. Rome's rich history was definetly showing itself through the architectural structure of the city. On the other hand Venice felt unreal to me it was just so beatiful. Our guide Luca was very friendly he was knowledgable, thanks to him we learned a lot. I made a lot of great memories ...
