- LFLaura· October 23rd, 2024Our trip to Italy with Meet and Greet Italy and Riccardo was the trip of a lifetime! Riccardo was so organized and fun and made sure we didn’t miss a thing in Italy! We had a great small group of 24 and traveled by rail which we loved! Riccardo took such good care of us as a group and we will always carry with us the wonderful memories of Italy!Show moreTrip date: October 2024

Walter· June 16th, 2024I participated in the early June Venice, Florence, and Rome tour. Everything went as planned. Our tour guide was Milena and she was simply outstanding in leading our group. All of my requests for pre/post hotels, airport transfers. and extra group activities were well organized and provided exactly as promised. I highly recommend this Meet and Greet Italy tour.Show more

Trip date: June 2024- LPLeeAn· May 29th, 2024I just returned from a great week in Venice, Florence, Sienna and Rome with the great Melenia as my tour guide. Melenia was very knowledgeable about the areas we were visiting and very organized with getting all of us from city to city which proved to be a difficult task at times due to people wandering when she needed us to stay together. I could not have asked for a better tour guide!Show moreMeet and Greet Italy commented on this reviewWe are delighted to hear you had a fantastic week exploring Venice, Florence, Siena, and Rome with Milena.

- GVGerry· October 29th, 2023Like the rating indicates … the overall experience was okay. Nothing special. Was disappointed that the 7 day tour was a part of a longer tour. The groups didn’t really mesh. And the fact that tour members booked through 5 or so different travel agencies … each with group had different perks.Show moreTrip date: September 2023

- PRPhilip· May 5th, 2023Ourfearless tourleader Annamaria did an outstanding job. She gave us 110% at all times and rolled with the punches from train derailments to explaining to our group the optimal way to get 10 pounds of touring in a five pound bag and while still keeping everybody happy. Annamarias' experience combined with her local touring associates in Venice , Florence, Sienna and Rome gave us as much depth of information, history, and local flavor as possible within our alloted schedule. The best thing about the walking tour is the waistline didn't take a hit in spite of the occassions of overindulgence. Great folks Great memories Phil & Sue from The MittenShow moreTrip date: April 2023
- Jeff· April 30th, 2023The guide, Constantino, was good. He was always willing to try and help those of us on the tour when we wanted to make reservations for tours or had issues. I would give 3 stars to the tour otherwise. I was not happy that we were not provided a more detailed itinerary of exactly what we would see and when. I know some of the others on the tour were frustrated by this as well. Because there was not clarity, I found I had to scramble and make extra arrangements, which cost money I was not expecting to spend! I did not know, for example, that the statue of Michaelangelo's David was in a location not included in the tour. When I asked Constantino, he advised me that an English-language tour was not available in the time frame we had. In Rome, I booked a Colosseum tour (extra), but because the Vatican tour ran behind schedule (and the guide was in a big rush), I was unable to visit St. Peter's Basilica.Show moreTrip date: April 2023
- MCMichael· November 3rd, 2022Our tour guide was marvelous. He repeatedly went out of his way to make sure our trip was as flawless as he could make it. When we needed help arranging items, he took charge to ensure that we got the help we needed. He was knowledgable and considerate and dedicated to making sure our vacation trip was everything we wanted. I can't say enough good things abouit him and about the trip in general.. We were fortunate to have selected the tour. Thanks to everyone involved in putting it together.Show moreTrip date: October 2022
- JBJanice· October 28th, 2022Before we left there was some concern our trip was not going to happen. But we had Valentina and her partner that made everything work out. They actually made our trip more special because of the issue. It was well organized all activities included went without issue. Favourite excursion was day trip to Sienna/Pisa/vineyard and favourite city by far Venice! Recommend extra days in Venice and Rome. I would book through Tour Radar again.Show moreTrip date: October 2022

Asked on January 29th, 2025Cost of single supplement please
- Meet and Greet ItalyOperator•Written January 2025
The price for a single traveler is displayed on the second page after selecting your desired departure date. As I am not sure which date would work for you at the moment, I am unable to assist further. However, if you click on your preferred month, the available dates will appear. Once you click on "Confirm Dates," a second page will open with all the details, where you can select the number of travelers and room type. After this, the Cost Breakdown will appear on the right-hand side, and you can decide whether to proceed or not.

Asked on January 7th, 2025do we get to see Moses holding the 10 commandments
- Meet and Greet ItalyOperator•Written January 2025
The visit to this basilica, where the statue is presereved, is not included in the tour, however, during your free time, you can reach it on your own in the Rione Monti district of Rome.

Asked on January 2nd, 2025This is nubiles year in Italy. My question is concerning the wait lines: with a guide do we can access faster ?
- Meet and Greet ItalyOperator•Written January 2025
During the Giubilee this year in Italy, of course you will find more people (especially in Rome) than normal. But this will not be a problem for our tour since we book in advance the entrances included in our itinerary. The activities included with an entrance tickets are with skip the line access but, as you know, there is a queu for the metal detector before enter in the sites for security reasons.

Asked on December 26th, 2024We are interested in taking this rail tour of Venice, Rome, etc. in 2025. It is our understanding that next year is some kind of Jubilee in Rome with various extra activities. It is likely that crowds for everything will be bigger than average. Does your tour take any steps to reduce waiting in lines? Maybe like pre booking tickets in advance? Or maybe other steps to reduce waiting?
- Meet and Greet ItalyOperator•Written December 2024
I'd like to reassure you that all our tours include Skip the Line access for ticket purchases, which helps you avoid the long queues at the ticket counters. However, it's important to note that Rome is always quite busy, regardless of whether it's a Jubilee year or not. While Skip the Line will certainly save you time when buying tickets, please be aware that at all the major attractions, security checks with metal detectors are mandatory. This is a standard procedure at all the sites, and it's required for everyone, including those with Skip the Line access. That being said, we believe that our tours offer the best way to experience Rome's incredible sights with minimal waiting, allowing you to enjoy more time exploring!

- Meet and Greet ItalyOperator•Written December 2024
Unfortunately, we don't have a Waiting List. We still have availability for the next departure.
