    The tour was beautiful. The tour company had everything very well planned out. Hotels were 5 star. The private drivers were all very professional I would highly recommend using this tour company. They were very responsive to all my questions.

    Hotels well located from train stations and activities. They are 4 stars but organisers need to ensure rooms provided are not of two star quality and twin rooms need to be large enough to place suitcases and access bathrooms.

    We loved the itinerary and the people who helped with transfers. They were all very helpful. The hotels were nice, but we had several rooms with horrible views and one was shoved in a corner next to all the housekeeping rooms.

    Asked on May 26th, 2024

    why so inexpensive compared to similar tours? also, some reviews were very good and others were disappointing...why the varied reviews?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Destination ItaliaOperatorWritten May 2024

      each person's opinion and experience are different. This tour is a group tour so you have to be open to be with a little or bigger number of participants depending on the date you book. The cost depends on the fact that this is an escorted tour so there will be a guide with you throughout the tour.
