The Best of Italy tour is terrific and covers the important parts of the country if you want a good overview of Italy. The itinerary is well paced and the activity level is very balanced. The hotels were very good and we were taken care of very well by both our Travel Director and our Driver.
Elaine H. | Traveled in January
I especially enjoyed the local tours that included family wineries, distilleries, tile- making artists and the cork farm. Souvenirs, gifts and magnets I purchased are significant reminders of parts of the trip that I will never forget. Our tour guide, Joao, took good care of us, in sooo many ways that were above and beyond what a tour guide would ordinarily do; I appreciate his bringing my "left-in-the-hotel" cell phone to the airport and getting it to me before my flight departed Lisbon!

Fantastic site seeing places, covered all areas of importance at the correct time of year for each. Trip guide Nicole was extremely knowledgeable and our bus driver Jaka was fantastic & kept us safe. I’d be concerned for people who will need to catch public transport within Europe and london.
