Skip the Line: Doge's Palace Secret Itineraries Tour
Venice, Italy
My Rating

My wife and I had been to the Doge's Palace on previous trips but this Secret Itineraries Tour took us to areas off the beaten track, truly to "secret" places. It was fabulous...the highlight of our time in Venice. Our guide was first-rate and clearly loved the history of Venice. She had great knowledge of Casanova's time as a prisoner in the secret portion of the Palace. Highly Recommended.

Everything on time. Great accordion player and singer! You can't miss with this one! You definitely cannot leave Venice without taking a gondola ride. My wife and I have done it before, but this was the best....from the price to the overall experience.

Venice Ghost Walking Tour

My Rating

This tour is worth doing, if nothing else but to walk through the narrow streets of Venice in the dark with someone who will not get you lost. It was extremely difficult to hear the guide and the majority of the "stories" were uninteresting. If you skip this, you are really not missing much.

Verona and Lake Garda Day Trip from Milan
Milan, Italy
My Rating

Definitely worthwhile. My wife and I had been to borth Verona and Sirmione before, but wanted to return as both places are so picturesque. Not disappointed at all. Our local guide in Verona was very knowledgeable and enjoyed his work. The bus ride was pleasant, also...a brand new, comfortable bus!

Cinque Terre Day Trip from Milan
Milan, Italy
My Rating

My wife and I are rating this as "Highly Recommended" because of the beautiful locale and experience of the ferry and train. While the guide was extremely nice, he did not provide much information and did not appear too interested in the trip. The scenery is breathtaking, however, and did not disappoint in the least.

Great tour. All of the important locations were covered with a knowledgeable and pleasant guide. A "must" for anyone who has not been to Milan before.
