I contacted Daniela at Find Your Italy for a last minute itinerary for a friend's birthday. Her response time was amazing and so was our itinerary. We both enjoyed her celebration trip which included wine and cheese tasting, cooking school and several other fun things. I am looking forward to a return trip to Italy with my mother, and to see what Daniela plans for us.

This was a great tour. I did it solo so I was a little concerned but my guide Mr Chandala was great and put me at ease. He was both driver and guide and he looked after me really well. On this tour, I saw lots of dolphins at Kalpitiya, tons of elephants at each if the four national parks on the tour. Minneriya and Udalawawa were the best for elephants. We climbed Siguriya and Pidurangala, which had great views, just be aware that you will scramble over rocks climbing Pidurangala so you'd better be in decent shape. But the views and the photos were worth it. I suggest a decent camera with a telephoto lens for the national parks and bird sanctuary for the best photos, but I got decent ones with only a cell phone. I was lucky enough to see 2 leopards in Yala. Wow! With a better camera, my photos would have been amazing. I visited an elephant transit home for orphaned baby elephants also. I was initially worried it was a fake one and just to make money but they are recognized by a German zoo and the baby elephants are not chained or anything. All the places visited on this tour treat animals ethically and humanely. The company was very concerned with my satisfaction and went above and beyond. I highly recommend this tour and the tour company.

We had so much fun on our Bike n Wine tour! It was a really wonderful way to see small towns and countryside, and a fun mix of vineyards, buildings/churches and scenic views. The guides were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and had everything organized perfectly. Bike n Wine customized a tour for our group that was exactly the mix of what we wanted to see and do for the day. We would definitely use them again for another customized experience! Fitness note - the e-assist bikes are absolutely necessary on the hills in Gavi, unless you are a very experienced biker.

Sunday early morning, grey and chilly air... "Daytime sleep is like the sin of the flesh" The mountain was hided by a low cloud but when we went up, here we are, the abbeys appear on top of the rock, strong and proud, majestic even and so humble at the same time. We made the tour on our own and we enjoyed a lot, following our instinct and timing. We just had to be out of the church by midday because of the Sunday mass - obvious. It is a touristic place but used by living monks! Don't forget, it is a beautiful location but most of all a religious mecca, a strong spiritual location on the Saint Michaels's line. I'll go back on Spring for sure. “Love is wiser than wisdom.” Umberto Eco

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.

There is a chance that your tour may include a mixture of nationalities (such as English and Spanish-speaking so if you prefer your own language exclusively, we would recommend making this clear to the operator to avoid disappointment. Some of the island visits are fairly brief, otherwise the tour operator has indeed set the tour around each of the major lakes in Northern Italy – we missed some of the spectacular views as it was fairly wet and foggy, so you may wish to cross-check the weather forecast for the time of year you’re thinking of doing the trip – we went late Spring. The operator keeps the tour to a relatively small group which is a nice bonus. This tour seemed suited to an older demographic. Some of the hotels that we stayed in were great – especially the one they chose for Lake Como – it looks like an old convent and has a lot of old-world charm. The Hotel in Verona was centrally located which was convenient, however probably not the best hotel we stayed in during our trip with some maintenance issues related to air-con. We have had a wonderful time in Italy, and Verona was the highlight for us with a walking tour around the city, taking in some of the history and older buildings.

Wish we had read the reviews before booking. Palermo is quite small and most the main sights are very central, so you don’t really need a bus tour. However, even if you are not keen on walking, the bus tour will be of little use, as the advertised ‘hop on, hop off, every 20 minutes’ is simply untrue. The bus only arrives every 90 minutes (we lunched in a restaurant next to the stop we alighted from and that was the time gap). In addition, there is no access to a live map for bus arrivals, so you have no idea when the next bus will arrive. In a nutshell, it’s a rip off.
