One of the worst tour I had taken. Guide was too lazy to do any guiding and wasted too much time on the bus, which he could have used to give us more info. Meals and hotel rooms were minimal and only that in Venice was adequate. On the way to Milan, it was stated we shall visit Lake Como but we were left at a park at the edge of the lake for 20 minutes and nothing else except a glance of the lake on the bus on the highway! Fortunately, we had a great group16 of us and had no problem with each other. This Tour needs to trim the number of towns to visit Assisi sight in less than 30 minutes? Just enough time to walk through and take a few snap shots! and find more willing to work guides.

Really enjoyed seeing so much in a short time. Hotel in Rome not so nice but good service made it better. Some of the meals were not great, but for the price of this tour, you could easily go eat dinner elsewhere and still have it be good value. Extremely well organized. We didn't have any problems at all thanks to our tour manager. Good value, lovely 'hit the highlights' tour of a few regions of Italy.
