    This tour was pretty fast-paced but worth it for all the places you get to see. My parents are in their early 70's and kept up. There were a couple stops where we could have used a few more minutes for pictures (Pompei) or souvenir shopping. In my opinion they should really change the beginning and ending hotel in Rome, the BV Oly. Dirty, WiFi spotty, and poor service. But overall the rest of the hotels were pretty decent. There was a switch-up between booking the trip and attending it - it was supposed to originally be a stay in Sorrento with an optional boat trip to Capri - but especially with the explanation we were super happy with the resulting stay in Salerno and the boat trip up the Amalfi Coast. Positano was gorgeous, and the tour of the ornate Crypt of Saint Matthew in Salerno with the hot priest was awesome (shoutout to Nella!). I can't say enough good things about our tour leader, Violetta! She made everyone comfortable, had a great sense of humor, and really went the extra mile. Our family had booked a boat tour on Lake Garda prior to the trip, which I ended up cancelling when I found out we wouldn't have enough time in Sirmione to make it. She heard about it, mentioned she might have a contact, and adjusted that day's schedule to add the motor boat tour around the peninsula as an optional excursion for the whole group! (I hope they add that as an optional for trips in general, it was fun!) Our family got to experience that boat tour, which really meant a lot to us since we traced our ancestors back to the 1560's on the shores of Lake Garda. So very grateful to Violetta and ExPat. Grazie mille!!!

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten January 2025

      We do not offer this tour for July (as it is a peak season for tours on the region). Instead, we have another Tour offerd for the region around that month, and you may check the itinerary and available tours in Tour Radar. You just have to search for Italy Tours, then filter the month and the operator (Expat Explore), to see other options.

    Bob

    Asked on January 2nd, 2025

    Does this mean the tour is really about the bus driving through each landmark or attractions staying for an hour and then going to the next? That 50 people is a lot for a group, too large a group to even hear anything from the guide via blue-tooth earing device.

    Tour Details
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten January 2025

      We believe the best way to get to the heart and soul of a city is on foot, surrounded by the people and the culture. For this reason, we do walking tours through most of the cities we visit. This means that Yes there will be a couple of stops in each city to conduct the walking tours (which could last upto 3 Hours). The maximum capacity is 48 Pax (2 spaces are allocated for the Driver and the Tour Leader) and so far, we do not have any negative reactions from our previous travelers for this capacity in terms of hearing discussions during the tour.

      Am I correct in saying in this tour, you don't stay consecutive nights in any hotel? In other words, you stay in a new hotel every night.

      Is there an option of including transfers to the hotel? If so, could you advise on the additional cost? There will be three passengers. If transfers are possibly, then could you please also advise on return transfers to the airport?

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      Could you tell me if there are any 'optional excursions' that are provided on this tour? If I have read the information correctly, the 'experiences' listed are included in the price and 'optional excursions' are not.

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      Can you confirm that all rooms will have their own bathroom and air conditioning?

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Some chooses to arrive a day early while others arrive on the day, as long as they are able to catch the 10AM Meet up. Regrettably, we are unable to assist in reserving pre and post-accommodation. You can use Booking.com for your reservations.

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Regrettably, we can no longer assist with transfers. We recommend using public transport for airport-to-hotel transportation. If you prefer a transfer service, you can easily book through Welcome Pickups, a user-friendly platform with competitive prices.

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Yes, the listed experiences are already part of the Itinerary but we do have Optional Excursions offered for the Free Time or Free Days within the itinerary. These Optionals are at an added cost and can be booked through the Tour Leader while on the tour.

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Yes, all rooms used throughout the tour have their private en-suite Bathrooms. However, air conditioning is not commonly used in European Countries as it is cold mostly throughout the year. However, customers can request for fans at the Hotel Lobby if they feel that their room's temperature not to their preference.

    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten October 2024

      At this stage, your departure is too far in advance for us to give you a confirmed starting hotel. Due to the fact that our hotels are subject to change, we do not provide inaccurate information beforehand to minimize any confusion that may be caused. We therefore suggest reaching out roughly 90 days prior for this information.

    Asked on September 3rd, 2024

    Do any of your tours give me the option to book airline tickets?

    Flights / Transfers
    • Expat Explore TravelOperatorWritten September 2024

      Expat Explore does not have the capacity to book flights for customers before and after the tour.
