The trip was fabulous -beautiful places , lovely hotel and friendly warm staff , excellent food wine and our leader Veriano was so kind engaging fun and made the trip even more enjoyable and our group was fabulous. Would go back tomorrow! Highly recommend it!
This was a great trip. The leader, Manny (Mahnai), was excellent. The accommodations, while not high-end, were certainly adequate, especially considering you will be spending very little time at the hotel. The places we visited were all beautiful and the food was amazing. The highlight was probably the private boat tour to Capri. One thing to be aware of: there is a lot of walking involved, at least on a few days of the trip. Nothing too physically taxing, but you will put in some kilometers on certain days.
