What people love about Italy Tours in March
- 5-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
Was a great tour of so many cities. Would have liked a more detail itinerary at the beginning of the tour.
- 8-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
We had a great time, we saw so much. Tour bus was comfortable, hotels very nice, clean and comfortable. We had big breakfast every day, the other meals on tour were OK. the final lunch was WONDERFUL, lasagna was delicious!
The trip was a great time and enjoyed by all four of us. The accommodations were not needed in Venice, but our stays in Roma and Amalfi were lovely. Shout out to the Guardian Hotel and San't Angelo Resort and Spa. The staff at both were very helpful while we stayed with them. The train connections were no trouble at all. Overall, the only thing that would be nice is being given options for hotels to choose from along with the addresses so that we can plan what items of interest might be nearby to continue our adventures. Questions were answered in a timely manner for most things. The staff was helpful although it seemed with one or two of them, there may have been a communication barrier or lack of understanding. Overall: Great tour to go on and would recommend.
