This was an excellent experience for my family and we would recommend Trafalgar to others. My recommendation would be to incorporate some of the "optional" experiences into the standard package, otherwise traveller's are left at the hotel during prime times of the day. We could have done without the stops that sell us things along the way (ie. leather, Lemoncello, etc). We had a lovely Travel Director (Pamela) and that makes a huge impact on overall experience!
Italian Tour
The tour was quite an adventure. Hotels were clean and the breakfasts were great. I would recommend this because of the nice several cities. Transportation was really good.
A Dreamy 8 Days Across Italy
From start to finish, this tour was absolutely magical. The pick-up at Fiumicino airport went smoothly, and the hotels in Rome, Florence, and Venice all felt properly 4-star—clean, comfortable, and in good locations. Florence was my favorite stop, especially seeing the Duomo up close with our local guide who was a total expert in Renaissance history. Venice was equally unforgettable with the walking tour in Piazza San Marco followed by spritz and cicchetti—it felt so authentically Italian. The motorcoach rides were comfortable, and I loved the Tuscan countryside views between cities. The itinerary was busy but very well organized, leaving enough time for some personal wandering. The Vatican "skip the line" pass saved us hours, which was priceless! I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see the highlights of Italy in just over a week without stressing about the logistics.
Best trip ever!
We saw just about every city we wanted to see in Italy in the 13 days! Our tour guide, was wonderful! He took excellent care of all of us! And he told us so much of the history! And he kept us laughing! It was a delightful trip!
