The App is helpful, but need to have a better idea of where and when we will be arriving at a city. Florence is probably the most interesting place to visit - especially the art, but you had us there on Monday when all of the museums were closed. Plan another day in the week for Florence. Found out that there are 3 Michelangelo sculptures in the Siena cathedral but arrived to late to see them. Too much time walking around inconsequential towns while missing some of the greatest attractions.
The locations were good but the arrangements for the optional excursions could have been better.
I really enjoyed the tour guide: Antonio Rivera. He was very professional, knowledgeable and incredible engaging. He is a people person, with an witty humor and a great personality He was also very attentitve to the groups needs, ensuring everyone was comfortable and had a great time. His storytelling were top-notch, making each stop on the tour both educational and entertaining. For the tour itself, I would prefer to stop in the bigger cities more days-even if I have to remove small towns. Other than that, everything was well organized and taken care of.
I liked the fact that we covered entire North Italy which was really good that we got to see many places
The group was nice so the experience was nice with them
