The tour was an amazing mix of included activities and feee time. Our CEO (Stefano) was amazing and would organize group dinners at great restaurants so that we could get to know each other. The hotels were in great locations so that you could come and go during the day if you wanted to. The small group size made the tour much more enjoyable as you could get to know everyone. I would highly recommend this tour.Show more

The tour was fantastic. The only one issue we had was that one of the reasons we booked Iconic Italy was because it included the Walk of the Gods hike in Amalfi. We were told right before the hike that it was closed despite having no rain in the forecast. We met a couple later that night who had done that exact hike in the morning. We understood that the hike is weather permitting but very disappointed since we feel like we were lied to as the hike wasn’t closed and we could’ve done it on our own. Despite that one incident, we had an amazing trip. Lots of free time included which is nice.Show more
