    Our trip to Italy was magical, full of long lasting memories and spectacular experiences. Such as the VIP access entry to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, I will never forget how we zipped pass the very long queue. Also, staying right on Venice Island, what can I say, we were right in the middle of all the action! Another special place is the beautiful Capri Island and having one of the very best Lemon Granitas. This trip was so well planned however, our Travel Director Daniele made the trip extra special and had the most wonderful sense of humor!

    My wife and I experienced an Italian Adventure with Insight Vacations and it was beyond our expectations. The whole trip was just magic from the cities we visited to the people we traveled with. Our tour director Allison Gatt was highly qualified and a professional in everything she did. Her knowledge of Italy was outstanding and her management skills very impressive. Our bus driver Fabio was first class and safety was his first priority. He was an excellent driver who glided rather than drove the coach.
