P B, CANADA
The tour was terrific as was the hotel accommodation, and Andy was the best! It was well organized and we didn’t skip a beat. That last night at the farmhouse was memorable and the perfect send-off. The tour guides in each of the cities we visited were well informed and did a great job explaining what we were seeing.
I highly recommended Italy With Pleasure to people I know that might be interested in travel to Italy. The small group size, and in our tour, Andy, is what makes it happen.
J I, AUSTRALIA
The tour was first class, excellent in every way. An amazing way to see & learn about Puglia. The accomodation, sightseeing, superb food & mini van with great driver and Anita leading the group was sensational.
We highly recommend this is the best way to see and learn about Puglia.
M G, USA
We had a most wonderful time and a most wonderful tour guide, Mark. Mark was personable, knowledgeable and accommodating. We would love him as our guide on another tour. Each town we visited had another guide specific to the that history and culture. Everything was beautifully planned out and well executed. Our room was beautiful, our view was breathtaking, we could not have asked for a more memorable trip!!
Why travel with us
We are a hands-on company. Family run. A small team. This means that we are genuinely interested in the success and enjoyment of your tour, and your time here in Italy.
The personal touch
Our tours are a balance between being informative (examples of the culture and lifestyle, historical details) as well as having everything that makes for an enjoyable trip (long lunches in good restaurants, a relaxed pace). We plan the itinerary in the way that you would plan to travel yourself, or with a group of friends.
Your tour leader is your ‘safety net’
Many people appreciate having someone to turn to who is familiar with the local area, whether it be for help getting something from a pharmacy / drugstore, or simply where to find the best gelato! Throughout your time with us your tour leader is on call for anything that may come up.
We have a maximum of 14 in our tour groups
and this is a very important feature. We’ve trialled a range of group sizes over the years, and even with a group of 16-18 people, you start to lose that personal touch. We find anything up to 14 works well and gives you a focussed and in-depth tour – we know that not exceeding that maximum number is key to this.
Free time
As well as organised excursions, we leave some time each day for you to explore at your own pace so you can get a sense of how it is to live like a local. This is what memories are made of.
We Refund Your Deposit
Your deposit is fully refundable, up until ten weeks before the tour start date. We recognise that your plans may need to change, perhaps for circumstances beyond your control – and we do not penalise you for this.
The tour price is comprehensive
It includes transport, accommodation, and all the visits and activities listed in the itinerary. Really the only thing left is dinner some days – we include breakfast and lunch, and actually most people eat very lightly in the evenings after our Italian long lunches!
