It was great and I am really glad I did it through a travel company, because planning it on my own would have taken so much time that i probably wouldn't be able to go.

The overall experience was a lot of fun. We were busy the entire time, and with the great organization managed to see a whole lot of Northern Italy within such a small amount of time. We were very nicely taken care of by our CEO. She was extremely responsive and helpful when any questions came her way, and she absolutely loved when people asked questions about Italy and it's storied history. Great trip!

The trip was awesome and a once in a lifetime experience. We hope to book future trips like this, but it will be hard to live up to the quality of this trip, especially our CEO Elisabetta and our fellow ducklings.

Very well organised trip. Logistics were excellent, accommodation was comfortable and central to all amenities of the towns. Hike maps and notes were extremely detailed. I would highly recommend them and am considering another trip in the near future.
