What people love about Italy Tours for Young Adults
- Mamma Mia! - 13 Day Italian Adventure (Age 21 To 41 )
The Italy On A Budget 13-day Mama Mia tour covers a lot of ground (literally because we walked almost 100 miles) journeying to several of the most well known cities and historic sites/ruins of the country. Good walking shoes and plenty of stamina are needed to keep pace with the friendly, knowledgable and flexible tour leaders who take into consideration the needs and wants and budgets of group members. The optional excursions led by tour guides are reasonably priced and can be tailored to your desire for specific types and locations of scenic sites. Or with plenty of free time integrated into the daily routine, you can venture out on your own or join an alternative excursion offered by a local tour guide. The accommodations match the "inexpensive budget" and are acceptable especially if you upgrade to a private room/bath.
- Italy: Pasta & Piazzas
I was 25 and it was my first ever trip overseas... I was nervous and picked this tour so I could sit back and enjoy Italy's finest with people my age. Well i was in luck, the group were fantastic and our trip leader Victoria was even better! Everyone bonded immediately and the rest was history! We drank Aperol spritz watching the sun set over sorento, Swan in the blue grotto, took a jet boat to amalfi... And this was the first 48 hours!! Everyday was better than the last and every moment was maximized... Vic our tour leader made sure of this. Everyday she gave us her inside tips, took us the some great restaurants, and made sure this was a trip to remember! I have such wonderful memories of this trip and would recommend it to anyone 20-30!
- Milan / Turin to Oktoberfest Weekender
Getting on that bus from Milan to Munich was the best life decision EVER!! Staying at the camp site with Stoke Travel was mad fun, and on some occasions it was even more fun than going to the actual festival because of the all the insane activities planned by the AMAZING staff. NOTHING beats drinking unlimited beer with awesome human beings from all over the world. For a clueless international student like me, it was super convenient to get to the Stoke campsite and Oktoberfest, and I'm doing it again this year! Facciamo un casino ragazzi!
