Our tour will take you to Pietrelcina, a small town in Sannio, in the province of Benevento, where 133 years ago Francesco Forgione was born, whom the world knew as Padre Pio, and who continues to love for his testimony of Christian life and for his innumerable charisms. We will let you know the house where our beloved San Pio was born, is located at number 27 in Vico Storto Valle: a single room, which is accessed by three external steps, to the right of those who enter, a bedside table and a double bed squares, supported by wrought iron currents and iron feet; in front of the four-glass window, on this side a much-used hand-basin and an old chest, beyond a square table covered by a faded carpet, on which the books are piled up, those used by Padre Pio when he went to school; in a modest frame, a photograph of her sent to her mother by a young lady from San Giovanni Rotondo. Don't miss out on this authentic local experience.

As a family of three, we were excited to go on the 7 day northern lakes and Dolomites tour - especially as it would be very difficult to visit these areas by ourselves (visiting from Australia and not confident driving/getting around to these areas). The tour started well, we were the only English speakers but we had been assured our guide would provide fluent English commentary. Perhaps we expected too much but there was very little information provided about where we were or where we were travelling through. In fact, the first three days we received very limited information in total while the Spanish speakers were provided with much more. We visited some stunning places but too much of the tour focused on lunch breaks and eating rather than seeing the sights. Halfway through the tour more English speakers joined the group bit we still had to seek information rather than being provided with it on some occasions. The bus was too big for navigating city streets and mountain switchbacks - the driver often had to reverse and try multiple times to get around corners and switchbacks. I felt very sorry for him - he did a marvelous job but it would have been so much easier for him and much more enjoyable for us if we weren't concerned about falling off the side of a mountain. The company can't seem to decide whether they are catering to small groups or large and this has a huge impact on the enjoyment of the tour. In Trento we were advised that we would have several hours and could visit the castle. After paying for admission and entering we were then advised that because it was raining some people didn't want to stay so we were cutting the visit short - this should never happen! We then had to get back on the bus only to stop at a truck stop for lunch (instead of staying in lovely Trento). There wasn't really any point to having the guide as he did not provide much "guiding" only very limited information and directions to places he thought we should go and eat. We would have done as well with just the driver. If you can navigate your way around the northern lakes and Dolomites by yourself then I recommend you do that. Otherwise, perhaps a different company would provide a better tour.

4. Tour Of Padre Pio: From Pietrelcina To San Giovanni Rotondo

Shore Excursion in Naples

The journey to Puglia takes us to this town in the province of Foggia, which receives 6 million visitors every year. All thanks to the figure of St. Pius, who lived and did good works here. Beloved and controversial figure, he is undoubtedly the great protagonist of the history of Catholicism of the last century. A reputation that lasts for decades, if not centuries, to come. He thanks a small town in the Gargano, which saw its tourism explode thanks to the portentous presence of this man. In San Giovanni Rotondo, Padre Pio spent almost all his life, and he did the works there. The faithful look to miracles, but even those who do not believe cannot deny the influence that the humble Capuchin friar has had on the masses. A great personality. Whether you are believers or not, the cult of San Pio can be an excuse to visit a delightful village in the country, those that can only be admired if you opt for holidays in Italy.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, parking - fuel - tolls, Bottled water

Exclusions: Tips are not included - meals and anything else that may be considered extra

We can't adequately express how great it was to work with this company. They picked us up from the train station, took us on tours of the Amalfi Coast and Napoli and provided transportation back to the train station at the end of our stay. Over the course of four days we were treated to the best of southern Italy. Ricardo was an amazing tour guide and went out of his way to make sure we saw the best of Napoli and the Amalfi Coast. Ricardo's restaurant recommendations are the best.The cars are clean and the drivers are very safe and professional. We highly recommend them and we look forward to riding with them on our next trip to Napoli. D. Vessey Phoenix, Arizona USA
