Guest reviews from travelers on Cultural, religious and historic sites tours in and around Rome
Anonymous | Traveled in December
Time at Pisa was a bit rushed but I understand it's a matter of timing with the local guide. ************* is top notch! Well organized and worked hard to keep group activities on schedule despite a couple of unavoidable disruptions (one being that the Pope had a special event the morning we were to visit St Peters, but Gordon and the local guide got us there that afternoon anyway). Most importantly, Gordon is sincere. His dedication to do a great job shows through. We'd book a tour with him in future if at all possible.

This was a fast paced tour, but it covered a lot of different areas and gave us a chance to determine where we would like to focus more on for the next trip to Europe.

It’s hard to narrow down The to like this to one favorite experience. From the very beginning this trip was amazing. Getting to see the Colosseum for the first time was definitely a highlight and getting to go to Venice and ride a gondola was another.

Our tour director and bus driver were excellent all along the way. And the local experts were very good, particulary at the Vatican Museum and in Milan. Also at Pompeii was very good. The hotels and food were very good along the way and we covered a lot of ground (over 3,300km) and excellent tours and sights. Some good optional tours and food in Sorrento, and to Como and Lugano. Very nice to get the perspective of all along the way. Many interesting details and stories provided on the long driving sections. Everything was well-organized and on-time. The group on the coach were also good people.

It is a rigorous itinerary and should be explained as such for older travelers!! It should be made known that Italy, while beautiful, is steep, rugged walking and filled with stairs to climb everywhere! The food provided on the tour was good but it really wasn’t Italy’s best!! When eating on our own we were able to sample some truly good Italian pizza and pasta. The tour should be leaving guests with a better experience of Italian eating!
Brittany N. | Traveled in November
My trip to Italy with Contiki was truly wonderful. Everything felt thoughtful and seamless, which allowed me to relax and simply enjoy the experience. Our guides were genuine, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable—they brought each place to life with stories and insights I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. From the beautiful cities to the incredible food, every day felt special. I’m really grateful for how well everything was organized, and I highly recommend Contiki!
