Essential Italy
Brittany · Traveled September 2024
This was my first time using a tour group like intrepid and it was the best experience of my life! As a solo traveler, it can get stressful planning everything, worrying about safety, and you sometimes miss out on experiences since you don’t have a group to do them with. This trip has given me peace of mind, the BEST group of people, an entire itinerary, and the luxury of blindly following a leader like a little duckling on travel days. I plan on traveling with Intrepid for all of my future trips!

My trip to Italy was incredible! I met amazing people and the cities and activities were fantastic, with plenty of free time to explore on our own we were able to do a gondola ride in Venice, go paddleboarding on Lake Garda, and much more. Our guide, Federico, was amazing! He was always there for us and his food recommendations never disappointed :D. Truly a trip I'll never forget.

My daughter and I very much enjoyed Highlights of Italy. This is our third Intrepid trip, and it did not disappoint. The itinerary allowed enough time in each city/area for optional activities, and included activities that we were not expecting. Prior to starting the trip, Intrepid staff on the "online chat" helped me book additional nights in hotel at start and end, as well as transport from airport. When the transport for airport didn't show, Intrepid made it right by refunded what I had paid in advance.
Our group leader was fantastic. Serena's friendliness, personality, knowledge, and problem solving skills allowed for a smooth trip despite some challenges with transportation. I would so enjoy another Intrepid adventure with Serena as a leader!

Italy Experience is a well-thought out trip. Just when you have had enough “city” experience, you get a break in Cinque Terre with nature (the mountains and the sea). Likewise, after Florence and before Rome, you get a break with a stay in Perugia and Spello. I enjoyed the quiet in these smaller towns before the hustle and bustle of cities. I highly recommend this trip.
