    From the time we booked to our trip to the airport for our return home, Colette was amazing. Having never been to Italy, we wanted to see a lot. The Italian vistas tour was perfect. We never need to worry about anything. Hotels, travel, meals, tickets to sights were all taken care of. Very efficiently. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly and fun. Highly recommend
