Review: Italy Birthday Tour, Rome, Florence, Naples, Venice, Postiano, Sorrento, Chianti, Siena, Cinque Terre, Amalfi Coast

We had a fabulous trip to Italy!  Our agent of this Italy travel company was a perfect fit for us.  She recommended moderately priced B & B accommodations.  We exchanged emails and shared several Skype calls with her prior to departure.

We stayed 2 nights in Rome, 2 nights in Sorrento, 5 nights in Florence, and 2 nights in Venice.  She made most of the in-country arrangements - fast train rides (Rome to Naples, Naples to Florence, Florence to Venice), half day group tour of the Vatican, half day tour of Ancient Rome, private drive on Amalfi coast plus some transfers, birthday dinner at a farm Fattoria Terranuova, full day group tour of Siena and Chianti region, full day group tour of Cinque Terre, half day tour of Murano/Burano. Group tours were a good way to avoid the lines at the Vatican and the Colosseum.  She gave us good advice on when a private tour was worth the cost. Private drive on the Amalfi was the way to go.  We would not have been able to do everything we did without her help.

Our agent made herself available not only before the trip but during the trip as well.  Her local knowledge were invaluable.
