We saw a lot, even more than I expected. It was a great overview of Italy. The only thing I wish I had done differently was to go a day early to adjust to the jet lag a little bit.

Only complaint I have is - it was hot and humid and on the day we toured Rome, too much walking in one day, burned out a few of the folks in our group.

The additional add-ons, we found these to be costly but enjoyed all of the experiences.

Fantastic trip. The knowledge and expertise of the tour guide and the skill of the driver of the coach were outstanding. The price, in my opinion, is worth it. Never have to worry about your luggage. It’s waiting in your room or not far behind when you check in. The itinerary of the trip was very good. Very organized . Started off very fast and very busy. Two days in Rome is not enough to see everything at a leisurely pace. After Rome, the pace was just right with lots of free time to explore on your own. I would definitely use Trafalgar Tours again.
