What people love about Italy Tours in March
- 5-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
5 star!!! we truly enjoyed the whole trip!!!
- 8-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
Victor from Carrani tours was very accommodating regarding hotel transfers to and from the airport.
- Classical Italy
This tour was great mostly because of the main guide and Rome's city guide (Phillipo). Our group was fantastic. We had a lot of flexibility with the itinerary. Yes, it feels rushed sometimes and there aren't a lot of included options but it is a budget tour with not many days. The hotels weren't great but they are good enough for a bed to sleep in and a bathroom to shower in. You are barely in the hotels. Gaby was so kind and caring. Will def go with this group again.
