    Well organized. Excellent, helpful, knowledgeable tour guide. Of the four hotels, two were great and two were just ok. The locations visited were interesting and each town had its own individual feel. The add on tours were very good.

    Good value for money, like the fact that tours can be added or free time can be utilised for 'chill time' if preferred.

    Tour was just right….leisurely and not on the go. Visited the major highlights of the Italian lakes with plenty of time to explore on our own.

    The tour was well-organized and our tour guide, Sonja, was so passionate about Italy that it made everything come alive. In addition, she demonstrated a heart of compassion and caring for all of us, as well as showing us her love for the country.
