Does the tour include time for an option for soaking in the springs at Montecatini Terme?

Regarding your question, while the tour does visit Montecatini Terme, there isn't a specific included activity for soaking in the thermal springs. However, you will have free time in the area, and there is also an optional Evening in Montecatini excursion available. During your free time, you're welcome to explore the town at your own pace, and if time allows, you may be able to visit one of the local thermal spas independently.

Do you provide gluten-free options? This is not a preference on my part. I have celiac.

We can accommodate vegetarian meals only; this means no beef or pork. Unfortunately, we do not provide gluten-free options.

I would like to know if the price is included with flights, or are they separately? And if soon they have a date for the last week of November.

Our tour packages do not include flights, so these would need to be booked separately. This gives you flexibility to choose your preferred airline, route, and schedule that works best for you. Regarding your travel dates, there are no departures available for the last week of November 2026 for this tour. However, we do have departures available in November 2027 if you're open to traveling the following year.

what airport should i fly into and out of? im assuming that flights arent included especially since im flying from Hawaii.

Since there are no direct flights from Hawaii to Italy, you're looking at a total travel time of around 18–20 hours. The most comfortable and straightforward option for 2026 is: The Best & Easiest Route: United Airlines via San Francisco (SFO) Route: Honolulu (HNL) → San Francisco (SFO) → Rome (FCO) Why it's easy: - Single stop: Only one connection, which is much simpler than routes requiring two or three stops. - Simple hub: SFO is well-signposted and modern. United operates mainly out of Terminal 3 and the International Terminal, which are connected, so terminal changes are minimal. - Comfortable pacing: You get the shorter 5-hour flight to SFO out of the way first, then a meal and a chance to stretch before the long 12-hour flight to Rome. Please note that flights are not included in the tour, so this would be arranged independently.

Is this tour available with Spanish speaking guide?

At this time, this tour is not available with a Spanish-speaking guide as standard. Expat Explore guides are typically English-speaking to serve the diverse international group on each departure.

Can we book hotel rooms that will allow 3 people to a room? I do not want my 17 year old granddaughter to room with a stranger or myself or my husband. Also are we able to view Neuschwanstein castle in Munich and villa balbianello (Star Wars) in lake como?

Please note that as per European hotel rules and policy, three travelers are not permitted to stay in one room with twin beds, this cannot be allowed. Therefore the third traveler would need to either be roomed with a fellow traveler of the same gender or purchase a single supplement. We currently cannot offer Room Upgrades and in your groups constitution, the granddaughter will be roomed with one of the adults in your group, while the 2nd Adult can either get a Private Room Upgrade or shame the room with another traveler of the same gender. Additionally, both locations that you mentioned in your message are regrettably not covered on the tour's itinerary and since the activities in Munich and in Lake Como are packed (with very little Free Time), you will not be able to schedule a side trip to visit them.

Taking flight to Rome, which airport should we land at? Close to hotel and tour start point. Also how is the weather in early Nov and clothing to bring.

The meeting point for your specific tour is, BW Blu Hotel Roma, Largo Domenico De Dominicis, 4, 00159 Roma RM, Italy. The Closest Airport: Ciampino Airport (CIA) Alternative Airport: Fiumicino Airport (FCO) Regarding the weather, mild but cool, and often quite wet. You can expect daytime highs around 16°C (61°F) and chilly evenings dropping to 8°C (46°F). You can expect about 5 hours of sunshine per day. Since it's one of the wettest months, I definitely recommend packing layers and a raincoat. The big plus, however, is that you'll experience much smaller crowds at the major sites!

At Expat Explore the standard minimum age is 10 years old. We set this limit because the itineraries are designed with a more mature audience in mind.

Pace of Travel: These tours are known for being quite fast-paced. Most days start around 7:00 AM or 8:00 AM to make the most of the sightseeing.

we need all inclusive with airfare round trip

Regrettably, we are not able to offer that type of package since we only Operate Tours and do not have the capacity to book flights for customers.

I recently did the Europe Escape trip with my parents through TourRadar and we had a really great experience. Our tour guide Gemma was wonderful—very organized, knowledgeable, and always made sure everyone in the group was comfortable. She kept everything running smoothly and made the trip enjoyable for all of us. We traveled through 8 countries in 12 days, which was a lot, but the itinerary was well planned. The hotels were good, and we also really enjoyed the company of our fellow travelers. A big highlight of the trip was the food. The culinary experiences were fantastic throughout the journey. We especially enjoyed visiting the cheese and wooden shoe factories in the Netherlands—it was a fun and unique experience. Italy was definitely my favorite part of the trip. Rome was amazing—the culture, history, and food were unforgettable. The visit to Tuscany (Montecatini) was probably my favorite stop. The old town felt like something out of a storybook. Florence was beautiful, and Trastevere in Rome was colorful and lively with great restaurants. Venice was also magical, and we had some incredible pasta there. Some of the optional tours do cost extra, but in our experience they were definitely worth it. Overall, it was a well-organized trip and a great way to see a lot of Europe in a short time—especially traveling with family.Show more

My Europe Escape tour with Expat Explorer was absolutely outstanding, and a huge part of that was thanks to our tour guide, Rachelle Brown. Rachelle is one of the most professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely skilled guides I’ve ever met. She handled every detail with confidence and grace—from smooth coordination and clear communication to sharing fascinating insights about each destination. Her passion for travel and her care for every traveler on the tour truly elevated the entire experience. Rachelle was always approachable, organized, and ready with helpful tips that made each stop even more memorable. Because of her guidance, I felt relaxed, engaged, and fully immersed in every city we visited. I would absolutely love to have Rachelle as my guide again on future tours. She set a very high standard, and I can’t imagine the trip without her. Expat Explorer is lucky to have such a remarkable guide on their team. Highly recommended!Show more

Rachelle Brown made our Europe Escape Tour (July 27–Aug 7, 2025) unforgettable! With seven countries, countless cities, and one fabulous group (shoutout to the Canadian ladies!), Rachelle kept the vibes high and the logistics smooth. She shared stories that brought each stop to life, knew when we needed music, games, or quiet on the bus, and gave spot-on tips for food and sights. Plus, she snapped and shared amazing group photos we’ll treasure forever. She’s the kind of tour leader who turns a trip into a memory-packed adventure. Highly recommend!Show more
