I recently had the opportunity to embark on a wonderful tour of Italy, and it was an experience that will forever hold a special place in my heart. From the moment I set foot in this beautiful country, I was captivated by its rich history, stunning landscapes, and warm hospitality. Our journey began in Rome, where ancient ruins like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum transported us back in time. The grandeur of the Vatican City left me in awe, especially when I gazed upon Michelangelo's masterpiece, the Sistine Chapel ceiling. As we ventured north to Florence, I was enchanted by the art and culture of Tuscany. The Uffizi Gallery and Florence Cathedral were absolute highlights, and strolling along the Arno River at sunset was a truly romantic experience. Our tour continued to Venice, where the intricate canals and ornate architecture made me feel like I was in a fairytale. A gondola ride through the narrow waterways was a dream come true, and exploring the historic neighborhoods of San Marco and Dorsoduro was a delight.
It was one of the best trips that I ever had. It was a great experience from Paris all the way to Bruges (I did not go back to Paris). I saw 11 countries in 26 days, and it was surreal. I met some of the best people on this trip and now they are my lifelong friends. I had 2 excellent CEOs. I saw and experienced so many European countries in terms of their cultures, food and landscapes. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. It was well worth the money and the time. I thoroughly enjoyed it in every way!
The tours were set up with the perfect mix of tour/personal time. Stefan, Claudia and our bus driver were top notch navigating us through the narrow streets to make sure we saw all of the local highlights! Recommend to everyone.
While the physical travel locations and sights were exceptional, I cherished sharing the experience with my tourmates and being able to share and connect with each other.
I had a fantastic time on this 20+ day adventure. I met a lot of really great people and saw a whole lot in a short amount of time. I feel like I can say that I?ve visited these places and maybe didn?t get the full experience of the place, but I got really close. I know more about this region, these cities and these countries compared to before this trip. I?m grateful for G Adventures and our two CFOs for helping create a wonderful, safe and fun experience.
Embark on a true Eastern European escapade on this 22-day adventure from Berlin to Rome. With plenty of free time in each spot and a local leader providing recommendations along the way, you’ll get immersed in the buzz of Berlin, the beauty of Prague and the bustle of Budapest. Tour the grand summer palace in Vienna, step into a fairytale in Salzburg’s Old Town and walk through the enchanting Vintgar Gorge in Bled. Finish with the canals and clifftop villages of Venice and Cinque Terre, and the piazzas of Rome – this is an adventure you truly won’t want to miss.
Clever to schedule Paris tours on the weekend when there is less traffic. The long bus rides were nicely paced to include good rest stops and small villages to walk about. Happy to discover Lyon, Nice and Avignon.
All of our accommodations and transportation every place we visited in Greece on this trip were top notch. Comfortable and safe, and at each hotel location there was a lot to do within walking distance.
This all-Italian adventure swings you from this historic beauty of Rome through the home of pizza, Naples (where you can stop off in the perfectly preserved Roman town of Pompeii). Then, it's all about living the good life on the Amalfi coast, sipping limoncello, and stopping off at picture perfect Positano (if you're here in the summer) and Sorrento during those breezy winter months. Back in Rome you'll get a chance to check out the Colosseum, before this unforgettable 6-day trip comes to an end.
