    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.

    Do your tours to Italy have a guide throughout (excepting Pompei and a few possible others)?

    Tour Details
    • Destination ItaliaOperatorWritten November 2024

      you can filter the research on tourradar by agency and between the Destination Italia tours you can find the Sicily ones who are fully escorted tours. Furthermore we have our Amalfi Coast tours which are semi escorted. This means they are just partially guided.

Can’t find the answer to your question?
