Travel Review: Luxury Italy Tour, Rome, Positano, Sorrento, Trivoli, Ostia, Pompeii, Vatican, Colosseum, St Peter's Basilica

This Italy travel company was absolutely incredible. The trip would not have been nearly as memorable and enjoyable had we not worked with this company. From the first moment I started working with the staff they were uniformly professional and helpful. Our group was made up of five very experienced travelers and we were quite specific in terms of our itinerary including when we wanted and didn't want to have guides with us. Our travel company worked with us to put together a complete and personalized plan for our trip. Upon arriving in Italy we were met by a driver and given a local cell phone to use for any last minute changes of plan or anything we might need. This was a really useful way for us to get in touch with our drivers and change meeting points on the fly.

Everyone we worked with in Italy were complete professionals, from the drivers to the guides and the staff of the hotel that our travel company had helped us locate. Thanks to working with this company we got a great rate on our hotel rooms and they made reservations for us for things like the excavations underneath St. Peter's in Rome, that can be quite tricky to arrange. Our advance reservations for the Vatican Museum allowed us to walk past hundreds of travelers who had not known to get their tickets in advance and the same was true for the Colosseum, where we walked past long lines of sunburned tourists to pass directly into the arena.

The long and short of it is that this company made us feel coddled and thanks to them we had a stress-free, perfectly planned vacation.
