Even though there was a lot of moving, the baggage handling and coach rides were done very well. No other way to cover so much ground in one trip.

Well thought out itinerary the meshed together well. Good mix of tours and education with fellowship time and free time. Don't change the itinerary!
Great tour of Italy 5 , VIC , Australia, May 2019
Cannot fault this tour. The tour concierge Andie, accommodation, coach and coach driver Francesco and delightful inclusions and sights made this an awesome tour to remember.
Awesome Italy   7 , New Zealand, Sep 2018
The hotel lobbies were very nice, and the restaurants generally good, however the rooms were more 4 star than 5 star. The only true 5 star hotel we experienced was the one we booked in Milan after our trip, for a price significantly less than the extra night at the beginning through Insight Vacations. We enjoyed our trip, but question the value of Luxury ...read more Gold over a normal Insight Vacations trip.
Excellent trip exploring the wonders of Italy 9 , VIC, Australia, Jun 2017
Excellent trip from start to finish. Main highlights were getting special access to areas in private like the Vatican Museum and the Dojo's palace in Venice. Highly recommend this trip and some of the experiences (wine tasting and making pasta) made the trip very special.
