Our tour director, Daniela Spissu was fabulous-she treated us like we were all great friends😎 She went well above and beyond with amazing service. We saw so many beautiful places, and she was always providing us with helpful information. The bus was very comfortable, and we were pleased with our accommodations (hotel breakfasts were good - hotel dinners were average and could use a little more flair).

They will need 2 rooms, one with handicap access (2 beds), the other for the 3 sisters (3 beds or 2 queen) at no more than $400 per night. The trip will be 7-10 days.
