France Italy Tours and Trips

Nigel made everyone feel welcome and capable with some pushing and encouragement when required. There were a number of people who’ve done multiple trips with Nigel and plan to continue doing more. That says “it” for me.

The itinerary was beautiful. It would have been nice if some of the optional excursions were already included. Insight is a higher end travel group and should include more. The hotels were beautiful and in central locations. One improvement would be that there should be more menu options for the dinners that were included. Some of the guests ate very little at our farewell dinner. Our tour director Barbara Tagliavento was awesome. She was very knowledgeable and paid attention to details. We felt very safe with her. Our driver Antonello was excellent and we felt very safe travelling with him. Our biggest complaint is that there should be an option to be taken to Linate Airport at the end of the tour from the Milan hotel. There are no direct flights from Milan to Toronto so we needed to fly into Rome first. Flights to Rome are only available from Linate airport. This was an extra expense for us that I feel should have been covered by Insight. We did enjoy our tour very much very much!

Our “Taste of Italy” tour with Insight Vacations exceeded every expectation and truly lived up to its name. It wasn’t just a trip through Italy, it was an unforgettable journey that allowed us to experience the heart, culture, history, and flavors of each incredible destination. From the very beginning, our exceptional Travel Director and coach driver made every detail seamless. Their professionalism, warmth, and passion turned a wonderful itinerary into an extraordinary experience. They didn’t just guide us through Italy, they brought it to life. One of the greatest surprises was the incredible group of travelers we shared this adventure with. What began as strangers quickly grew into lasting friendships, and by the end of the tour, we truly felt like one big family. That sense of connection made the journey even more meaningful. Every city offered its own unique “taste” of Italy, from breathtaking landmarks and rich history to authentic cuisine and unforgettable local experiences. Each stop was thoughtfully planned and beautifully orchestrated, allowing us to appreciate the character and charm of every region we visited. The hotels were comfortable and welcoming, the food was absolutely outstanding, and the historical knowledge shared throughout the trip added so much depth and appreciation to everything we saw. Every day seemed to outdo the one before. If you’re considering an Italian vacation, I cannot recommend the “Taste of Italy” tour with Insight Vacations highly enough. It was more than a vacation, it was an experience that touched our hearts, created lifelong memories, and left us with new friends from around the world. We are already looking forward to our next Insight adventure!

We really enjoyed our cycling trip in Sicily. Our guide Davide was brilliant. Funny safe and extremely helpful he made the trip enjoyablefor us all. Organising evening meals transfer arrangements, lunches, and anything we required.. would strongly recommend to anyone considering this trip. Sebby, our driver was also very good too

We saw so much of France. We were busy every minute of the day, not much time to relax. But we took the trip to see the country and that we did.

We got to see so much in our two weeks, from the historical stops in Rome to the isle of Capri, balsamic vinegar facility, parmigiana cheese facility, winery and the waterways of Venice. The Optional Dinner Excursions were amazing, each providing a different menu and plenty of good wine.
