Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

We recently return from 17 days traveling Greece and Italy on an itinerary and trip that this travel agency helped us plan. They listened to what we wanted, took our budget into consideration, and delivered an unbelievable package.

Every detail was perfectly planned and it made it so easy for us. We could truly use our time to enjoy exploring our stops in each country and had no issues whatsoever with our accommodations, tours, or transportation arrangements. The guides and tours were had were AMAZING and we truly learned so much. I have already provided our travel agency's contact info to several of my friends who have inquired and I would highly recommend them in helping you put together a custom trip of a lifetime.

I could have not done it myself and direct experience in a country can't be compared to trying plan plan off on-line reviews.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

We loved Greece! The people were friendly, the hotel accommodations were great and the staff went out of our way to make our stay wonderful. To treats left in our room, turn down service, and the views from our balcony on the islands was breathtaking. We would sit outside and watch the sunrise/sunset with a bottle of wine and it was truly spectacular.

Greece was easy to navigate by ATV and I felt like being there for a few days was just enough to see the important stuff. It wasn't overly crowded and the weather was nice (albeit way windier on the islands that we expected). The food was great and the overall vibe was laid back and romantic. Athens was good enough for 1 day and next time I would spend more time exploring the islands!

Rome, Florence and Sienna were our favorite of Italy. Rome has so much history and culture. So much to see! I would stay in Tuscany more next time and loved hitting all the small vineyards and cafe's. That was definitely my favorite part and we loved the people outside of the city.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

If I did this trip again, I would reduce the number of stops and spend more time in a few key place. It was our first time to both countries and I think at this point in our lives we like the path less traveled a bit more. A tour every other day can get to be exhausting after 17 days on the road and we just felt like we needed a day in between to sleep in and move at our own pace in order to decompress and recover from the information overload. Plus, on tour days it wasn't uncommon for us to walk a lot of miles. This helped with not feeling guilty to indulge in the treats along the way. ;)
