    There were a lot of things we enjoyed about the tour and some things not as much. We throughly enjoyed Alice, who was helpful, informative and kind. We loved seeing parts of Rome we hadn't seen before, but the first tour there was rather boring. Cinque Terra was beautiful as was the Tuscany area. The train rides were pleasant and comfortable. Venice was special.

    Had an absolute blast, still thinking about this!!. Our tour leader Diana was beyond sensational, extremely knowledgeable, friendly and fun - she was the cherry on top of this itinerary and added a sense of ease to the group. Lucked out with the other travellers on this one, any and all group excursions were shared with a smile and laughs.

    The trip was well organised and was fantastic for showing some of the highlights Italy has to offer. There was plenty of free time so I could explore the cities as I wanted, but the included activities were great as well. The guide was really knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the areas and gave excellent recommendations. Overall, an amazing experience!

    I had an amazing time doing ultimate Italy. The CEO and all my fellow travel companions were great fun. We got on so well. Italy is a great country, with amazing cities and towns. Everyone should go there at least once

    This was a spectacular, once-in-a-lifetime kind of trip: amazing sights, exceptional experiences, Diana was an incredible guide, and we had a wonderful group of really great people. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone, especially first-timers to Italy, as well as Europe. Thank you again - I cherish all my memories from this incredible adventure.

    Tina

    Asked on February 13th, 2025

    We have been looking with interest at your "Ultimate Italy" 14 Day small group itinerary. We are wondering if you have a similar package starting in Venice, going through Florence, Siena/San Gimignano, La Spezia (Cinque Terre), Lake Como, and finishing in Milan?

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten January 2025

      Unfortunately our itineraries are set and we can not extend during the tour dates. You can definitely book pre and post nights at the start and hotels, so you can get extra time in the start and end locations

  • S

    Sherry

    Asked on July 15th, 2024

    I have a severe height phobia. Does this tour have many sights with a lot of stair climbing or cliffs?

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten July 2024

      The only day that would have concerns about reaching major heights would be on Day 9 in Cinque Terre. There is a hike included on this day - but we can offer an alternative train-ride option (ticket included) to see the sites this way instead. Beyond this, there should be nothing too intense in terms of heights on the trip itself.
