We are at the Rome Airport on our way back to NY. We cannot thank you enough for all of your attention and assistance before and during our stay in Roma. The transfers to and from the airport were on time and the driver was so accommodating (he gave a tour and stopped at a location for perfect pictures on the way to our hotel). The Hotel was absolutely beautiful! Our suite was fantastic and the hotel staff were extremely attentive. Finally, our Scavi Tour was unbelievable - truly a once in a lifetime experience
Much gratitude for making this brief vacation such a success.
- Celia Solomita
Thank you very much Italian Journey for taking care of this last minute arrangements so quickly and efficiently. It’s wonderful to know that we can rely on you, on the Italian Journeys team, when something unexpectedly comes up. Very best from here,

Every tour was great - high marks for the truffle tour...and the wineries were excellent - the villa was spectacular too..
- Joe Lagana, Protravel International Global Account Manager
All the arrangements with Italian Journeys were quite wonderful and made it far nicer than it could have possibly been had we done it any other way. We are so appreciative of the care that was so evidently taken to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. Our guides were so helpful and informed and made all the difference in our experience. The staff at our hotel in Positano were extremely gracious welcoming and helpful. I must however single out our driver Salvatore. He drove us everywhere up and down the Amalfi coast ( on those heart stopping cliff hugging roads!). I cannot imagine anyone being kinder, more considerate, or more helpful. There is no way we would have enjoyed ourselves half as much without his safely and comfortably seeing us to each destination. Thank you again for all your help and care on this, you did an excellent job for us and we truly appreciate all your efforts. We look forward to our next adventure.

I want to express my thanks to you and all your staff that made my recent trip to Italy a wonderful, memorable experience. Everyone provided remarkable service at every step of the journey beginning to the end. The care everyone took to assure that every detail was smoothly executed and that our comfort and safety were never in question guaranteed we were able to savor every moment to the fullest. My mom and I are all agree that this trip was one of the most enjoyable and memorable of a lifetime! Our tour guide in Rome and Naples along with our driver in Naples did an absolutely outstanding job and helped this trip to become unforgettable. Special thanks to the Italian Journeys Team to put an amazing itinerary. Thank you for everything.
- Z. Inanli
We had a fantastic day! Our driver was so wonderful and insightful. GREAT asset! Also, I loved our guide Maria Elena. What a lovely, well informed and kind woman. I recommend both and of course will share with my office!
Again, thank you.
- Mari Marks Luxury Travel Advisor
It was a fabulous trip and we thank you for all of your assistance. The guides and excursions were all first rate. The boat excursions in Amalfi were also very fun. The captain had two young crewmen who explained things to us in English. We had a nice mix of sightseeing and swimming. We also had lunch at a really nice restaurant that you could only get to by boat. We ate there twice because we enjoyed it so much. Thanks again for all of your help. We look forward to our next trip.
- Antony Lembke
My clients just loved everything we did for them for their trip to Italy. Thank you so much again!

- Liza Brown
I just got words from Mr. D that all has been perfect with your services so far. Thank you for that! As I told you before, Mr Davis is quite hard to please and for him to compliment your services 2 years in a row - well that is saying a LOT!
- Robin Van Zack Protravel International
The trip was a total success!
The Aeolian Islands were exactly what we wanted chic and gorgeous but under the radar and not overcrowded. I will highly recommend you!
- Stacy Lauren
Thank you Italian Journeys providing the most Amazing guides in both Venice and Florence. Rosanna was perfection and although I had done tours before she was really charming and informative. A real pro.Cindy in Florence was also terrific. Wish I had more time to spend with her. Highly recommend both.Thank you
-Dr. Felicia Porges Client of Elaine Pesky / Protravel International
The trip was glorious...we had the very best of everything. The planning was superb. Thanks to you Dino. Is there a survey to fill out for the sake of the excellent guides, drivers and how smooth everything was? The hotel locations were excellent. Ease of movement, so pleasant and friendly! The Italian people, as I knew beforehand...were so very helpful, sooo friendly and pleasant!!!! and funny!
It truly was a trip of a lifetime. Thank so much Italian Journeys team for all your guidance and supervision concern and care!! We look forward to returning...I guess that is the best acknowledgment!
-Sincerely, Toni and Sean Redican
Ellen - Just quick note to say our trip was truly amazing. I get nervous before a trip that I might have set my expectations too high but for this trip Henry and I loved every bit of it. Each guide and driver was extraordinary. They each had their own unique qualities but each one was so fun to be with and to learn from. They all went to making for a great time. Although a fully packed itinerary we wouldn’t have wanted to miss a thing. As I told you earlier our hotels were amazing as well. Exactly what we wanted. Beautiful with great locations. Each hotel also upgraded our rooms. The Lake Garda hotel put us in a suite that was spacious and lovely. The hotel in Rome put us in the top floor with a terrace. Wow!! Thank you again for everything. Hope to be back to you soon with a new trip to plan.Gracie Mille
