Private Tours & Trips in Italy
Pompeii froze in 79 AD, and you can walk those streets now. Head to the Amalfi Coast and enjoy twisting roads along dramatic cliffs, or Capri's sunset on a boat trip. Don’t forget Naples, where pizza here tastes totally different, Vesuvius vineyards in volcanic soil, and Matera's Sassi caves. Dont forget Pisa's leaning tower, Tuscan wineries, and learn to make mozzarella with your own hands.

Good itinerary. Great hotels. ALL were great . Great vehicles Will recommend tour Need to stick with what is offered. Changes were expensive. So, we did not make any .No optional excursions, so you arrange your own, which is not hard . I think itinernary can be improved . Not best english speaking guides . May be that is the way it is .
7-Day Sicily in Style from Palermo to Catania, Private TourI was struck by the attention to detail even in a simple and friendly context.
Luxury Private Tour of Sicily: HighlightsExcellent - / Good +++ The concept, content, and delivery of the tour were excellent! The places and sites visited were well selected and planned and the van was very comfortable. The additional tour package that we bought was worth the money. And, most importantly, we were lucky enough to have Marco as our driver/guide-the very best person for this job in all of Sicily! He truly made our journey special. A few small negatives: the chocolate shop and winery tours were OK but not great, one or two of the hotels could have been better, and the trip felt rushed on some days. We would suggest that you keep the same places but extend the nights by one or two so that there would be a little more free time and fewer places to visit in one day.
