What people love about touring Italy solo
- Italian Discovery
Great tour, beautiful landscapes, the hotel was one of the most luxurious that we came across, everything fulfilled as agreed and with a guide like Sasha in Florence who was the friendliest and most pleasant of all those who we met on our trip. Everything was managed so well that we didn't have to worry.The trip followed the timetable that wa given by Alex before the trip. The tour itself was great. The tour covers the most famous places in southern and northern Italy. Food was wonderful.Met a lot of great people. All in all, amazing trip.
- Mamma Mia! Best of Italy
Our tour guide, Luca, was an extremely knowledgeable, which greatly enhanced our trip. Although I had expected a more leisurely pace, the tour was still enjoyable, even though a bit fast-paced and intense. Luca went above and beyond to ensure that the tour was excellent, even purchasing local delicacies for us in different cities and doing everything he could to resolve any issues that arose. We visited many amazing places and, in comparison to other tours I've been on, the accommodation and food provided on this tour were generally superior. Additionally, the hotels were conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to explore on our own when we had free time. Although we felt a bit rushed at times, and I would have preferred to linger in certain places, the tour gave us a great taste of Italy, leaving me eager to return at some point in the future.
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily 6 days
The tour met all my expectations. It was a little too hectic though for myself and my wife in our 70s. I realise you want to show us as much about your glorious island as possible. The reason given for the many early starts was to get to ticket offices to buy tickets Why not buy tickets in advance where possible? I also feel that some of the visits were overly long
What our customers ask about Italy Tours for Solo Travelers
Which Italian destinations are most recommended for solo guided tours?
The Amalfi Coast Tuscany and Sicily stand out as excellent choices for solo travelers. The compact towns of the Amalfi Coast such as Positano and Ravello provide easy-to-navigate streets with plenty of social spaces. Sicily's cities like Taormina and Syracuse welcome visitors with open arms as noted by a TourRadar traveler: "The family at Luna d'Agerola treated us like family." These regions work well for solo explorers thanks to their built-in social activities from Palermo food tours to Montepulciano wine tastings.
What is the typical single supplement cost for guided tours in Italy?
Single supplements for week-long Italy tours usually cost between USD 400-600. At the 4-star Hotel Ariston in Taormina guests pay USD 440 extra for a sea view single room. Some tour operators help avoid this cost by offering roommate matching services for travelers open to sharing accommodations.
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Italy?
The sweet spots fall between April-May and September-October when crowds thin out and temperatures stay mild. Data shows these months attract the highest number of solo bookings at 35-40%. One TourRadar traveler explained: "Traveling in May meant comfortable temperatures for walking tours and easier socializing with the group without overwhelming summer crowds."
How much free time is typically available on Italy guided tours?
Tours generally provide 2-4 hours of independent exploration daily alongside scheduled activities. In Venice you might spend the morning with a guide at St. Mark's Square then get afternoon hours to wander the canals on your own. Reviews often mention this format creates "the perfect balance of group activities and personal exploration time."
What evening activities are typically arranged for solo travelers?
Evenings often feature shared meals cooking demonstrations and guided walks. Common activities include wine sessions in Tuscany gelato-making classes in Florence and dinner at local restaurants. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The evening activities were perfect for socializing - from limoncello tasting in Sorrento to group dinners in Rome I never felt alone."
What's the typical group size on Italy guided tours?
Most small group tours accommodate between 8-20 people. The Sicily Food & Wine tour keeps things intimate with just 8 guests while the Amalfi Coast Walking tour typically hosts 12-15 participants. These smaller numbers make it easier for solo travelers to get to know their fellow tour members.
