Susie
Everything Planned!
We absolutely loved our Nada's tours. We did back to back Sicily and Amalfi coast with a few days in Rome with customized tours. The hotels and restaurants were outstanding and I'm certain I couldn't have found them by myself. How wonderful to have everything planned, very small groups and time for ourselves in between busy days.
Kathie & Pat
Amazing Time!
I cannot use enough superlatives to describe the amazing time our two groups have just had in Italy thanks to your wonderful organization and your amazing leaders. From the moment that Sergio greeted us for our first ten days with his all-encompassing humor, energy and care, we floated through Italy amid perfectly chosen accommodations, sumptuous repasts, fascinating information and above all extraordinary care and attention. The fact that we are already planning our next Nada Experience says it all.
Margaret
Happy Repeat Customer!
We have gone on 4 of Nada's Italy small group tours. They are ideal for seeing the real Italy outside of the main large tourist cities. All of her tour leaders have been excellent and very knowledgeable. We plan to go on at least 2 more of her tours.
Bill & Fran
They are more than a group, more than friends, they are family!!!
The little box asks "what do you recommend about Nada's Italy? My answer...Everything. We just finished the Nada's Italian Treasures. It was truly amazing. We saw a perfect mix of "have too sees" like the colossuem, the David, the Vatican and fabulous must sees like San Gimignano, Ovieto, Murano and Burano (forgive the spelling) Such attention to detail from the lovely hotels, to mind blowing meals. We were truly pampered! We had a beautiful unexpected rain shower in Sienna and before we could blink, our guides had gotten umbrellas to escort us back to the vans. Speaking of guides, they were the true Treasure of the Treasures tour. Friendly, caring, incredibly knowledgeable, awesome humans! Constant surprises to make our experience even better! We came home with some beautiful, glass, fabulous leather, about 7 extra pounds (oh the food!!!) beautiful memories and forever friends. Our group (including guides) can't stop chatting on What's App. They are more than a group, more than friends, they are family!!!
