I want to thank you for all your help in making this the trip of a lifetime. Your ideas were spot on and I am so glad that you convinced me to take every one of your suggestions.
The hotels were all wonderful. They were located right next to transportation and easy to get to from train stations. The staff were all helpful and so kind. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The breakfasts were so beyond anything I could have expected and they even made a point to accommodate our dietary concerns ( gluten and dairy free!) The rooms in Italy had air conditioning which was great during their record breaking heat wave. The one in Germany did not , which was only a problem because of the unusually high temperature.
The tours you chose were superb! The guides in Rome were so knowledgeable and personable and made the history come alive for us. They were worth every penny. The trips to Cinque Terra and Salzburg were highlights of our trip. The sites were breathtaking. I am a Sound of Music fan and we reached the convent where the movie was filmed right at noon when the bells started chiming . We went around back and there were the Alps and “ the hills were alive!”
It seemed like we did a lifetime of bucket lists all in two weeks. My cup runneth over. I will certainly use your services again if we ever get to do another trip and have been recommending you with high marks to everyone I talk to.
