Italy Local culture Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Local culture Italy tours
Barb K. | Traveled in June
The tour was just fabulous- so many wonderful sites and experiences. Our tour guide, Cinzia, was passionate, organized and knowledgeable. We were in good hands with our bus driver Danielle too. As favorite things go, 2 things come to mind, the olive farm of Nicola Clemenza. Tour & Food were really great. And seeing Mt. Etna out of our hotel room in the morning then going there followed by a special little lunch in a rather remote area was memorable. Even the sheep came by!
ELIZABETH M. | Traveled in May
Sicily was quite the surprise to me and amazing to discover! Lots of fun on the tour and many extras added.
Richard C. | Traveled in May
Collette did a horrible job with airline reservations. They did not include us with the tour and left us stranded. Follow up and assistance was not good. Customer service was also lacking.
Anonymous | Traveled in May
A magical two weeks. Very well organised and a comprehensive itinerary offering a good understanding of the fascinating present day culture and the history of the island. Enough free time to explore whatever we wished – or just to relax and enjoy watching the Sicilian world go by. Our tour leader Tiziano was the key to the success of the Grand Tour, communicating his knowledge of Sicily with an infectious passion.

We really enjoyed the entire trip. The tour manager, Val, the bus driver, Bruno, and the all fourteen days were amazing. The only thing we did not like were the accommodations in Marsala at The Palace Hotel. It is very old and dated past being able to be enjoyable. The rooms were musty and full of dust etc. My wife and I actually had to change hotels and pay for our own accommodations for the three nights there.
Josee T. | Traveled in May
The tour was absolutely wonderful!!! Val (tour manager) was amazing! The only thing that I would recommend to remove for sure from the itinerary is the "Palace Hotel" in Marsala. It was actually terrible...It smelled musty and it was not clean. :( It looked like they just opened a week before we got there. I do have bad allergies to dust, molds and mites and let me tell you, I could not breath in that hotel. So we had to move to a different hotel for 3 nights because of it. It was not good for me because of my allergies but it was not good for anybody else on the trip either to breath that "stuff" either. Note: We staying at the Best Western in the Marsala Plaza and it was the best location!!! I would recommend this hotel for the future. Other than the Palace Hotel, the trip was a 10/10 for us! :) Totally loved all of it! Josee
