Rome Tours in October 2026

The tour was wonderful, the last accommodations although very beautiful setting were a bit removed and hard to get meals if you didn't want to eat at the hotel. The most memorable experience I believe worthy Home hosted luncheon and the truffle hunt experience. Anton, our tour guide was absolutely wonderful very knowledgeable very accommodating and very patient

Daniel, our Tour Manager, took care of everything, anticipating needs and sharing his knowledge and experience in Italy. My favorite part - I spent the week enjoying and learning about Italy while Daniel took care of the rest.

The pilgrimage organized by Colette was managed superbly by Cincia Trappa! She executed the plan flawlessly, which had built in difficulties organizing 44 personalities! The site visits were exactly what we wanted to see, experience and love. The day at Assisi was wonderful, but St Peter's Basilica was the ultimate experience. Cincia made an excellent decision postponing our scheduled visit to a later weekday with fewer visitors. Seeing Pope Leo close up was an event none of us will forget! The hotel was excellent, the transportation first class, the guide, Christianos, was exceptional...don't ever lose access to that font of Italian history!! Being able to access the four Holy Doors, see Pope Francis's tomb, and experience all the Jubilee churches and sites, are why we went to Rome with Colette! Thank you for a wonderful week!

Our tour manager set us up for the best experience possible. We crammed in 3 days worth of events in one day. We were able to see so much. I learned so much about my faith. The beauty of it. The history and love and mercy for each member of God’s beautiful family. Wonderful wonderful experience. Don’t change a thing.

Awesome trip! It really gives a nice overview of much of the country. We saw so many gorgeous sights. The mix of included and optional activities was great, it gave us the ability to be as busy as we wanted, but also allowed for downtime if we so chose. Most of the activities are in classic tourist areas - very crowded. We also had some activities off the beaten path, which was lovely. Be prepared with good walking shoes, we averaged about 6km per day, and lots of it is over ancient cobblestone and stairs. Our Travel Director was wonderful and all the local tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. This was our first European trip and we loved it.

The Tuscan/Umbrian tour was a fabulous experience! Everything was perfectly planned and the immersion experiences were unforgettable! The family who welcomed us into their home for an Italian lunch, the olive oil tour and tasting, the wine tasting were gave us a real flavor of Italy. But I would have to say that for me the highlight was the truffle hunting experience! We learned so much that day, saw amazing views and enjoyed authentic homemade food. In every case we were greeted with warm hospitality. And I can’t forget to mention our tour guide Giulio (and our driver Gerry) who made the trip so enjoyable every step of the way!
