What people love about Italy Tours in March
- 5-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
Good overall tour. Thanks.
- 8-day Best of Italy: Rome, Florence & Venice
It was great Clara was very nice and helpful. Giving was also great
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily 6 days
Excellent tour. A great variety of things to see 3 languages on a tour is not good. We'll never do a tour again with 3 languages. Not much support from the company. We didn't have a welcome meeting. Driver had to do multiple turnarounds trying to find an entry to the small towns. The company should have had this planned.
