    · May 6th, 2025
    I booked the 7 day Italian Holiday Trafalgar Tour for April 2025. I paid an extra $249 for the travel insurance in case of interruptions. Day one was supposed to be a tour of Rome, but the Pope’s funeral occurred and all sites/museums were closed. The following day we moved on to Venice. I filed a claim with Trafalgar Aon Affinity insurance for a 1/7 refund ($311) for that lost day. The claim was denied. Greedy management, don’t recommend Trafalgar.

    Although the tour was a great experience, it was full on (because I opted to do the optional additional experiences) but it was well organised and Paolo was an excellent tour director, nothing was ever too much trouble, from answering questions to the need to repeat the instructions/meeting times etc, several times to ensure everyone knew what was happening. I thoroughly enjoyed the 7-Day Italian Holiday Tour which exceeded my expectations. I now know which regions of Italy I would come back to spend more time based on the valuable information and experiences I gained on the tour. One of the highlights for me (there were a few) was the 'Be My Guest' dinner at a beautiful local family owned villa up in the Tuscany hills, it was an absolutely fabulous setting and Gioda was the perfect host (and cook)!! Perfecto!! I would definitely recommend to anyone to take a tour with Trafalgar, you won't have to worry about a thing! Grazie.

    We chose this as our teens’ first overseas exposure. We couldn’t be more pleased. Trafalgar provides a great trip (this is my second trip with them) and our tour guide, Giuseppe, was tops. He provided so much valuable information, even while riding between cities. Of course we could have spent more time in each of the cities, especially Florence, but it is a great overview for people who haven’t been to Italy before.

    PROS: Excellent service provided by our tour Director Alfonso who kept the group moving from city to city on time. He was very knowledgeable and shared many interesting historic details of the countryside that we were passing through. Driver Antonello was very professional and we felt very comfortable and safe with his driving through varying terrains. CONS: Academia Gallery of Florence which houses world famous sculpture of David by Michelangelo was a glaring omission. Optional experience “Piazzas & Fountains” would have been more enjoyable in the evening instead of 1:30 pm in blazing summer heat around 30C.

    So we were scheduled to travel March, Has a family emergency, saved 9 yr old from drug house. Call Trafalgar 2 times to change either cancel or reschedule. In the end i lost complete amount of trip, They stated to get in touch with the travel insurance company, which they provided in their email. They were as big a joke as Trafalgar, rejected claim BEFORE i could get paperwork in they asked for.. Unbelievable experience. And as info, you wont see negative reviews, they delete who does so. SCAMMERS and cheats. Trafalgar- yes the girl is recovering!
