I enjoyed this tour as much as I had perceived it in such a short period of time except for the 2 days in Rome which I felt were a bit mis-managed partly, because of the unexpected snow storm in Rome which caused everything in Rome to shut-
..down. I would suggest the company to have back-up plans in case such a thing arises- For example - getting a free dinner (depending upon the composition of groups-alcoholic, non-alcoholic, vegetarian or non-vegetarian etc.) or some kind of compensatory activity for the group. Nonetheless, I would like to make a special mention of Mr. Mustafa -our guide who besides being well-versed with the History of Rome (was open-minded,democratic and friendly) as well Florence and Venice had some interesting inputs to create the context before handing us over to the local guides in each of the city, went out of the way and addressed our grievenaces of our 2 days in Rome by coming up with compensatory solutions to the former- by getting the visit to Michael Angelo's Academia ... having the original sculpture of David, as well as by offering Champagne to all the group members.
I also feel that the visit to Trasvere village could be better organised by giving more time to the group to walk around aplore the place besides eating as 1 hour wsn't enough.
Besides, the hotel in Rome could neither provide the basic amenities like complimentary water bottles or even a possibility of paying for the water, the breakfast was hopeless as well as the hotel restaurant opened only at 7 pm in the evening so if someone arrived during the day and wanted to eat after a long journey, they were directed to the nearby mall which was inconvenient for many of us. I would really suggest the company to consider changing the hotel at Rome for their future travelers. Read full review
