    Gave a great overview of wonderful places in Italy. I would recommend what others have said and get there an extra day early to Venice and stay an extra day in Rome. I also traveled to Verona and Pompeii, both of which I would highly recommend if you have a day to spend.

    Waste of money. Sent wrong tickets, one cancelled. Not much good to say other than it was a scam.

    The tour itself was amazing! A lot of value for money. The tour guide did seem to be a bit annoyed at us at the end when we wanted to get transport back to the hotel, after walking over half a marathon. This is notable considering a few members had lower body injuries/ health concerns. Other than that, I really loved my trip. I made friends for life, memories I’ll cherish for years
