Much gratitude for making this brief vacation such a success. Thank you very much Italian Journey for taking care of this last minute arrangements so quickly and efficiently.
Very best from here,. They had an absolutely wonderful time and really enjoyed everything.
Thank you for making me look good!! Garrido Executive Assistant to Jacks W. Pinola is back and is VERY happy especially with your attentiveness so thank you for keeping them happy: Francesca was an amazing chef - made amazing meals - All the drivers and vans were outstanding Every tour was great - high marks for the truffle tour 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. We had a fantastic day! Our driver was so wonderful and insightful. 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! 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.
EXCLUSIVITY WITH SIMPLICITY
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. My clients just loved everything we did for them for their trip to Italy. Thank you so much again! We're having a blast!!
Can't wait to bring the boys back, hopefully next year. Thanks again for everything. 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! The Aeolian Islands were exactly what we wanted chic and gorgeous but under the radar and not overcrowded.
I will highly recommend you! Rosanna was perfection and although I had done tours before she was really charming and informative. Cindy in Florence was also terrific. Wish I had more time to spend with her. The trip was glorious The planning was superb. Thanks to you Dino.

This meant as we walk into the restaurant the owner presented my partner with his best wishes on her birthday and I feel we just received that little bit more magic from the waiter and staff that really made us feel comfortable. I travel for a living and I am currently writing this review from Netherlands away on business knowing that the travel agent my company uses, albeit a good choice, I would not book my holiday to Italy with them and I can assure you their customer service even though we spend in excess of 2 million per year with them never matches that you will receive from Italian Journeys.
Katy the bottom line is, you get married once, your honeymoon should be a magical trip to remember. If you explain to Italian Journeys what you want from your trip, I know from experience the small dedicated team at Italian Journeys will deliver you those memories of the trip of a lifetime. I hope you found these words helpful and I can tell you more and more about the places I stayed and the things they arranged for us. Not once have I been let down when I needed support. I have always just dipped into my travel documents to take out the next sheet explaining my next experience and how to get there and noticeable things to see on our way.
Just one last thing, every place I have stayed, every place I have eaten, someone from the team has been there, seen it, felt the atmosphere and if not they are so honest they tell you upfront. Enjoy your special day and relax on your honeymoon in one of the most beautiful countries in the world, and of could feel free to revert if you need more information. Their in depth knowledge and expertise combined with a personal service tailored to our needs have enabled us to fully enjoy the diverse places we have visited. City breaks to Rome and Venice in the summer and pre Christmas which is divine!
We have had 3 wonderful holidays in Sicily staying each time in one of our favourite hotels ,the Villa Belvedere in Taormina ,and also staying in and travelling to Syracusa, Ragusa Cefalu and Modica. Also holidays holidays in Tuscany Puccini Festival ,Unbria, Lake Garda and Ravello during the wonderfully atmospheric Music Festival and the delightful little town of Maratea in the unspoilt Basilicata region. All the holidays booked with Italian journeys have given us everlasting memories and we give them the highest recommendation.
We have just come back from our honeymoon, having used Italian Journeys for the first time, and our experience was great.
EXPERIENCE DESIGNERS
They booked us three fabulous hotels in Venice , Tuscany and Rome , but also arranged for our transfers to each hotel, a convertible for part of the trip as well as all our travel within Italy. Having not thought to mention it before we left, I called Italian Journeys a few days in to let them know my wife has a wheat intolerance not an easy thing when dealing with Italian cuisine! Within a few hours, they had sent us back a huge list of gluten free restaurants in all of the places we were staying, and had let our hotels know so that they could get special flour in for us!
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Italian Journeys - they gave us a truly memorable honeymoon. I can confirm everything above.
I have worked at Italian Journeys in London for four years before coming back to my native Italy , where I live now. As a Senior Travel Consultant at Italian Journeys I used to tailor-make travel itineraries to Italy mostly honeymoons as well as personally visiting places, hotels, villas and other suppliers to ensure they were up to the task. Dino, the Managing Director, knows Italy in depth, he can easily speak in Italian with any local supplier if he needs to get that "bit" more and make you feel treated.
He takes great care of the details. Details make the difference in this job, and this really seems to be Dino's Mantra, a policy which he conveys then to all the members of his team. I used Italian Journeys to book an anniversary vacation for my parents. I work in the US and my parents are near Liverpool. So i was quite concerned about the logistics of everything, but parents just returned and they had a spectacular time. The hotels they picked were excellent, they were made to feel special at the hotels, the restaurant that was picked for their anniversary, and by the drivers that picked them up and dropped them off.
So as someone who used Italian Journeys for putting together and booking a trip, i would highly recommend them. And based on the reaction of my parents who went on the trip, they would highly recommend them also. This topic has been closed to new posts due to inactivity.
