Only 7 people and the tour was by Van. The driver guided us during the drive but no guide joined us at our stop in Castellina. Professional presentations at the wineries. Especially at Poggio Amorreli with Andrea where we were treated with Spumante, one white and two red Chianti and one supertuscan. We also got bread, cheese, salami with their own balsamic vinegar and olive oil. The driver called for a taxi upon arrival in Florence ????

This was booked through Viator, but the actual company doing the tour is Romaetravel. This was an excellent tour. They asked us if we could change the tour date from Monday to Sunday, which was fine. They picked us up at hotel, there were only 4 of us on the tour. We had a rest stop, then to Pompeii where we had another guide. Then on to drive through Sorrento and Amalfi coast, which was beautiful. Had a photo stop, then stopped at Positano for lunch and shopping, then on the Amalfi and a short stop there. Our guide Maure was wonderful, very knowledgable and personable. Our driver was excellent, expecially navigating all the windy roads. I would highly recommend this tour. It's a long day but totally worth it.

We were told Stefano tours were first class in providing a private look at Rome. Our guide Vinnie and Vatican guide Luiza were first rate. We were picked up at our hotel promptly and went right away to St .Peter's and Trevi fontain to avoid the tourist crowds. The rest of the day was a trip to the popular sights and included a trip to the Catacombs as we did the Colosseum the day before. Vinnie took us to a wonderful lunch spot. Our Vatican tour focused in its highlights and Luizangave us a great history lesson along the way. And the company was easy to communicate with via email all of the time. Highly recommend Stefano!

Dotted with medieval hamlets and quiet hermitages, the Umbrian hills are enchanting. A few kilometres are enough to find yourself immersed in nature, with centuries-old beech woods, deep caves and mountains steeped in ancient legends. Water emerges in springs and mountain lakes; it flows in rivers, carving out striking stone canyons; it gathers in swamps and artificial basins, transforming them into natural oases.
Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Guided tour, Entrance fees for Clitunno Park and Marmore Waterfall
Exclusions: Lunch, Gratuities

Excellent, thorough, and wonderful are just a few words to describe our great day with our guide,Livio. Since all four of us had been to Rome before, we really wanted to see some different sites. As we drove to Rome we planned our day with Livio suggesting that we first visit the Catacombs of St. Callixtus, since he knew that there was a 9am tour in English. This site is full of history, archaeology and faith. It truly was a highlight of our day. We then drove to a section of the original Apian Way. Our morning included visits to Circus Maximus, an overlook of the city where you can see the seven hills of Rome, The Keyhole Door, the ruins of the Forum, and the Trevi Fountain. We drove past several historical sites including The Wedding Cake. After a wonderful, delicious lunch at a local restaurant, we headed to Vatican City for the afternoon. There we were guided by a very knowledgeable guide, Rosanna. We spent over two hours visiting the Vatican Museum, the Sisten Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. A day tour with Livio and his company is truly the only way to see and appreciate this ancient city. If we could we would give Livio ********** for this great tour. Thanks Livio for providing all of us with a wonderful day and some great memories!!
