Overall a good trip. Saw a lot which could not do on your own. Busy schedule but not stressed as everything taken care of.
Accommodation in Florence & Rome could be better. Really need to do the Optional tours to benefit from it so budget for these. So you could say the optional tours are not really optional.
Allow a few days at the end to relax
...read more & do shopping if you want as you don’t really get enough time for this on the tour despite what they say. The guide Gary was excellent & professional. As this was our first time to Italy & the europena continent it was a good way to do it with this tour.
