We book a trip of a lifetime trip for our 25th anniversary. We decided to stay a month in Italy. We used Italy Luxury Tours. They planned every detail. It was the easiest trip we’ve experienced. The private drivers, hotels and tours were exceptional. The hotel accommodations were superb! Surprisingly, our favorite time has been the cooking class in Bellagio with Chef Alessandro Redolfi. My husband doesn’t cook normally but he felt very comfortable with the instruction and result! During our stay we absolutely feel in love with Italy. You can select the type of trip you want to experience and they will do all of the planning. Highly recommend!

We recently had the pleasure of traveling to Italy with Italy Luxury Tours and we cannot recommend them highly enough! From the moment we landed in Italy, our experience was exceptional. Upon our arrival from the USA, we were greeted at the door of the plane by a friendly representative. They helped us with our luggage and made our transition from the plane to our accommodations seamless. A special shoutout to Mirna, our tour coordinator, who exceeded all expectations. She provided extraordinary support, checking in with us daily and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Mirna's management of our guides and drivers was impeccable, and her attention to detail made our experience even more enjoyable. Every aspect of our trip was perfectly orchestrated, from the tours to the transportation, allowing us to soak in the beauty of Italy without any stress. We truly felt taken care of every step of the way. Thank you Mirna, for making our trip unforgettable! If you're looking for a top-notch tour agency for your travels, look no further!

This tour surpassed our expectations and delivered great value. Guilio was so easy to work with, he listened and created an itinerary perfect for a mother-daughter adventure, including a private cooking lesson in Bologna and a private tour of the 4 Madonne parmigiana reggiano factory. Our transfers were seamless. When our original hotel in Florence had issues, Guilio upgraded us to a 5 star hotel at no additional cost. I highly recommend!

This tour was just what we were looking for. We were able to tweak the itinerary to our liking. All the restaurants and wineries were exceptional. Accommodations were great. Drivers and guides were personable and knowledgeable. Having a person on the ground to check in with us every day made us very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Explanation needed - I gave this trip three stars partly because our first trip with ILT was so great. This trip was more custom through the northern lakes and felt less organized. When we asked for several lake boat tours with Prosecco to tour the lake, we got several small boats with no lake tour just transportation. Had a cooking class and didn't know we could organize the menu so instead cooked food none of the family enjoyed. The coordination of all the travel was impeccable as usual. Will use again but will be more explicit in the needs and desires.

We had no issues. All aspects of our trip went flawlessly. Tour guides were all excellent. Cooking class chef was a real treat. All the drivers were extremely professional, and all the restaurants and restaurant recommendations were wonderful. Transfers happened without any problems.

LOVED LOVED LOVED our Italy luxury tour. It was our 20th anniversary and my birthday vacation. 18 days, April 29th -May16th, Venice, Chianti/Tuscany, Florence, Sorrento, Capri Amalfi coast Pompeii and Rome. Thanks to Valerie and Gennaro our initial contacts at Italy Luxury Tours for an incredible job helping organize and guide us to the perfect itinerary personalized to our wishes. Then Mina took over for organizing the 18 days, she is the best ever, texting us every day to make sure we were having a great time and letting us know who our guide and driver were the next day. She got us some great guides, restaurants, hotels, beautiful things/places to see and we didn't have to do anything just meet our private driver/guide after breakfast at our hotel and the rest was all taken care of. Thank you, Mina, for an incredible trip of a lifetime. Thank you, Valerie, and Gennaro as well for all you did to make this trip truly memorable You should give Mina a raise she is really a great asset to your company. We are hoping to return to Italy next year? perhaps Southern Italy and Sicily and will of course use Italy Luxury Tours again and ask for Mina to be our organizer. I could write a lot more but bottom line this tour was worth every penny, and we had the best time. We hope maybe in the future they have other European Luxury tours and would be the first ones to sign up for Spain, Portugal, Greece and more. Grazie mille Valerie, Gennaro and Mina for a truly luxurious stress-free vacation

From the initial contact with Gennaro all the way to boarding the flight home our experience was above and beyond our expectations. Clearly ILT strives to be excellent and pay attention to every detail. Throughout our 2 weeks we were amazed how smoothly everything ran and how well we were taken care of. We started in Venice and then traveled to Florence, Sorrento/Amalfi Coast and ended in Rome. Every assistant, driver and tour guide was professional, polite and spoke English extremely well. In Venice we thoroughly enjoyed a day with Francesco. His knowledge and passion for the city were very evident. When our gondola ride had to be canceled due to rain he immediately called and rescheduled it for the following day. In Florence we had 2 full days with our guide Luca. What insight and knowledge! And he definitely went above and beyond when my husband's cell phone was stolen, even accompanying us to the Carabinieri to assist in filing a report. The driver Andrea was also extremely professional and friendly. Then in Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast we had 2 wonderful guides, Patti for our day on Capri and Max on our trip around the Amalfi Coast. Both were a lot of fun to be with and made the beautiful surroundings even more fantastic. We really enjoyed our interaction with Marco the driver as well and appreciated his skilled, cautious driving! The hotels definitely lived up to their 5 star ratings, especially The Bellevue Syrene in Sorrento. What a place, what great staff! As part of the planned itinerary we had a fabulous lunch in Venice, Florence, Capri and Amalfi, each superb and unique. We were treated to great food, wine and service. A highlight in our time in Tuscany was a delightful multi-course lunch and wine tasting at Tenuta Casanova. We were treated to a personalized tour and overview of the family owned organic farm/vineyard by Ricardo, as his shared his passion for winemaking and Tuscany. But without a doubt the most excellent and praiseworthy person was Mina, our point of contact throughout the 2 weeks. We can't applaud her enough for her professionalism, care and attention to detail. She communicated each day to inform us of timing, drivers, guides, etc. so we were never left wondering what was going to happen. The most impressive example of her personalized care was the day we arrived in Sorrento. Relatively quickly we knew that we'd like to extend our visit there and shorten the time scheduled in Rome. When we contacted Mina and inquired if that was possible she immediately made all the necessary changes. Within a very short amount of time we had exactly what we had requested! She also helped us plan an excursion for 1 of the extra days. She consistently provided excellent and personal service, even to the point of coming to meet us at the hotel in Sorrento. What a pleasure! The only downside to this fabulous and memorable Italian vacation is that the bar has been set very high now! How can you improve upon perfection! Thank you Gennaro and Mina!
