Veneto Hill Towns Small Group Day Trip from Venice
Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Venice, Italy
My Review: Really enjoyed this tour; the small group size was much more enjoyable and laid back than being on a full tour bus. Our guide, Marco, was sweet, patient, and helpful. There were five stops, which gave a nice taste of what the Veneto area has to offer.

Venice Gondola Ride and Serenade
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Venice, Italy
My Review: One must have a gondola ride while visiting Venice! There were about five gondolas that went out together, with two musicians in the middle gondola. The musicians were talented and the music beautiful! This tour isn't personal and intimate, but is the best way to have the experience while keeping the cost down - highly recommend!

Skip the Line: Venice Walking Tour with St Mark's Basilica
Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Venice, Italy
My Review: This is a nice tour to do on one of your first days in Venice, to get acquainted with the surroundings. None of the stops are in depth, but they give you a taste of different areas and places you might want to come back and spend more time in. Our guide, Francesco, was from Venice, friendly, and provided a lot of information.

Skip the Line: Guinness Storehouse Entrance Ticket
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Dublin, Ireland
My Review: I almost didn't do this tour, but glad I did! No waiting in line. It's self guided and interesting. It was raining the day I went and seemed like every tourist in Dublin had the same idea to be there, yet it wasn't too crowded, and getting served at the bar on the top floor was quick. The only lines were at the gift shop, but you can by Guinness items all over town. Even if you think you don't like Guinness, you might find out you actually do :)

Dublin Traditional Irish House Party including Dinner and Show
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Dublin, Ireland
My Review: Originally I was only going to sign up for the entertainment, but others had made positive comments about the dinner, so I decided to do both. The food was great and the entertainment was brilliant! My only complaint is that I wish the music had gone on a little longer :) Nice experience!

Wild Wicklow Tour including Glendalough from Dublin
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Dublin, Ireland
My Review: One of my favorite tours! Glandalough was beautiful! Plenty of time to take a little hike to the lakes and then tour the monastic city. The stop in Avoca may seem like a touristy gimmick, but it's a great shop with a lot of beautiful Irish-made items.

Paris to Bruges Day Trip
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Paris, France
My Review: Highly recommend Bruges as a place to see - very picturesque! It's a full day trip, but not long enough to see and do it all. If it's important to you to be able to visit all the sites, and do some leisurely shopping, you might want to consider a trip by train to spend a night. Otherwise, this day trip tour from Paris is very enjoyable and well organized.

Giverny and Monet
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Paris, France
My Review: A perfect afternoon trip from Paris! The information provided during the drive there was interesting and informative. Visiting during the fall colors was beautiful! Hope to do it again during a spring trip to see all the flowers. This tour made viewing Monet's work at the Marmatton even more meaningful.

Northern Lights Night Tour from Reykjavik
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Reykjavik, Iceland
My Review: This is a must-do if you're in Iceland during the winter. They were visible the night of my tour, but you do get the option of trying another night if you're not so lucky. Be sure and dress very warmly, as you'll be spending some time outdoors to capture photos.
