This tour was comprehensive and provided a great variety of historical and beautiful places to see and enjoy. The itinerary was really full and we felt a bit exhausted some days with all the activities! Some hotels were good, one was great and some were below average. Tour guides were mostly good (Carmen and Mati were excellent) Emanuele’s English was confusing. We were never sure what was happening next with him, I’m afraid. The food at most of the hotels was repetitive and not very authentic. Overall, it was pretty good value for the budget price.Show more
