Great itinerary and tour director. Suggest: a slightly slower pace - limiting yourself to 1 optional experience/ day to avoid too/ long days -exhaustion, provide more suggestions for authentic food / restaurants on ‘free’ days.
Three of us girlfriends decided it was time for an Italian cultural recharge, and we picked the rail tour to hit the highlights with ease.
We explored Rome and saw the Coloseum as we opted for an optional tour. Florence was also beautiful.
Venice was pure magic. Our shared gondola ride under the Bridge of Sighs (with just six in the gondola) felt cozy and unforgettable . We spent afternoons discovering boutique shops and colorful squares.
For us, this tour struck the perfect balance. Relaxed evenings with wine and laughter. The train travel was a breeze, everything was well-coordinated.
I took this tour with my family, including my two teenagers, and we all had a blast! The tour was well-paced with a mix of guided activities and free time, which was great for us. My kids loved the visit to Pompeii—they’ve been fascinated by it since learning about it in school. The gondola ride in Venice was another highlight that we all enjoyed. The hotels were family-friendly, and our guide, Sergio, was wonderful with the kids, keeping them engaged throughout. I’d highly recommend this tour for families wanting to explore Italy together.
The "Tuscany to Cinque Terre: Wines, Villages & Unforgettable Walks" tour really lived up to its name and my expectations. In one short week we travelled to all these places to experience its beauty, nature, food and culture. We indeed had unforgettable walks with everyone, our incredible CEO Francesco and amazing fellow tour members. I highly recommend this tour!
