Italy 12-Day Tours and Trips

I had an amazing time on my trip and have made brilliant new friends. The choice of countries, hostels, activities and restaurants were great! I enjoyed every aspect of it!

this trip was so perfectly mapped out, Sanne was the group leader and she did a sensational job. she had the perfect balance of professionalism and friendship, accommodated to everyone's needs and wants, was thoughtful on dietary requirements and was really good at reading the room to make sure everyone would have the best experience. the trip itself had great amount of activities without being boring or overwhelming. the people i had in my group were so lovely, it was great to make new friends who i believe will be life long and future travel buddies, so many fun times, inside jokes and entertainment i'll remember forever. i honestly couldn't have imagined a better experience, this trip has given me the confidence i needed in future solo/group trips.

The Tuscan/Umbrian tour was a fabulous experience! Everything was perfectly planned and the immersion experiences were unforgettable! The family who welcomed us into their home for an Italian lunch, the olive oil tour and tasting, the wine tasting were gave us a real flavor of Italy. But I would have to say that for me the highlight was the truffle hunting experience! We learned so much that day, saw amazing views and enjoyed authentic homemade food. In every case we were greeted with warm hospitality. And I can’t forget to mention our tour guide Giulio (and our driver Gerry) who made the trip so enjoyable every step of the way!

This really was a great time. I liked learning more about history. Food, olive oil, and wine that were all very good were tasty. I made some great new friends and had a great time.

Rachelle was the best tour leader. Some hotels needs to be reviewed/replaced. Chris and Simon very professional drivers. All side excursions were worth the money. Planed meals were very good and represented the local flavor. Be prepared to pay to pee and all the labor strikes in Italy.

Excellent, interesting tour, amazing scenery and visiting some wonderful places like Lucca my absolutely favourite place on the tour. We stayed in some really nice interesting hotels though I wasn’t that keen on Villa Pitiana in Tuscany. Lots of faded grandeur and an uncomfortable bed. I don’t mind old hotels at all but the bedroom I had at Villa Pitiana was gloomy and most unwelcoming and the bathroom was not great. The Villa was in need of major refurbishment and too far away from anything. I would have preferred three nights in Lucca to explore some more. A few people on the tour felt the same. I also really liked Rapallo and would have enjoyed more time there. Silvia was a wonderful guide.So knowledgeable, helpful and great personality. Our driver Gaetano was friendly and a skilful, safe driver. They made a great team.
