    Asked on February 10th, 2023

    My wife and I are in are 70's. My wife is unable to walk long distances. Only a block or two at a time. Would theincredible Italy tour too be too difficult?

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • Luxury GoldOperatorWritten February 2023

      This trip is considered a dynamic trip. These journeys can feature 4+ miles of walking on some days and may involve some steep hills. It will include a variety of morning start times to maximize sightseeing and regular evening activities.

      Guests are also expected to be able to go up and down several coach steps multiple times a day without assistance.

      Should your wife be unable to keep up with this pace, I would not recommend this itinerary.
