Skip the Line: Borghese Gallery and Gardens Walking Tour
Rome, Italy
My Rating

Excellent tour - Rebecca's knowledge and enthusiasm was both informative and infectuous. The passion with which she described the Bernini sculptures and the Carvaggio paintings was truly amazing. In addition, the garden tour portion was equally relaxing and informative. I would strongly recommend this tour of the Borghese collection and the garden, which affords a beautiful overlook point of Rome.

Assisi and Orvieto Day Trip from Rome
Rome, Italy
My Rating

Wonderful tour - our tour guide was exceptional and provided great information during the tour. The trip to Assisi was the highlight and the spirit of the beautiful saint is prevalent in the area, and most intensely in the place of his tomb. Peace truly abides there. The local guide who led us through the city was top-notch with a great mixture of information, humor and passion. The lunch in Orvieto, with a short ride through Tuscany enroute there, was a great opportunity to taste local food and wine and experience an Italian "farm."

Capri Day Trip from Rome
Rome, Italy
My Rating

The location itself makes this such a worthwhile tour. The boat ride from Naples, the breathtaking rock faces rising out of the beautiful blue Mediterranean water were astounding. Make sure to take the chair lift up the mountain, and if you can hike back down for more vistas and a chance to see some of the residences of Capri.

Venice by Night Tour and Gondola Ride
Venice, Italy
My Rating

The walking tour was excellent - the guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The boat ride was a great way to end it - although it is short, it is a good and reasonable alternative to a more extensive gondola ride.

If you are interested in the history of Venice and in particular the behind the scenes of the Doges palace, in particular Casanova, you will like this tour. Our tour guide was exceptional . I would strongly recommend this tour for a good start to a good 2-3 day stay in Venice.
