Experience the heart and soul of Italy's most sought after destinations in Italy: Rome & the Amalfi Coast.
"We went on the Mediterranean Bliss tour of Rome and the Amalfi Coast with two other couples. We thoroughly enjoyed our group and the camaraderie that developed. Our amazing journey director, Clarissa Mannino, watched over us throughout the trip, providing excellent guidance and support. The tour was planned with an excellent attention to details combining seeing major sites and allowing for moderate amounts of free time to explore on our own. We stayed in top notch hotels, particularly the beautiful villa in Sorrento. We enjoyed Italian cuisine in elegant spots as well as in a local family owned pizzeria. All of the meals were excellent with multiple courses and the opportunity to try the local favorites of each area. The length of the tour was perfect and we felt well-cared for during the entire trip! Our group kept remarking to each other that, on our own, we never would have experienced the incredible things that we did with Nada’s! We recommend Nada’s Italy highly!"
"If you’re looking for a company to guide you through Italy – yet you’re not comfortable with the mass-produced tours offered by many other companies – look no further than Nada’s Italy. We just returned from their “Mediterranean Bliss” tour and could not have been more impressed. Our group was comprised of three couples, and we received top-notch service and attention. Our guide, Clarissa, was awesome, both in terms of knowledge and in building rapport within our group, given that we had never met the other four folks before. She knew all the ins-and-outs of everywhere we went and made sure that she took us to all the places we wanted to see. In addition, the “city guides” who Nada’s uses are very knowledgeable and entertaining. In Rome, Barbara was able to get us in front of all the crowds with VIP treatment at the Colosseum and Vatican City. That alone saved us many hours of waiting in line. In Pompeii, Margarite brought us back in time to explain the history of the city."
"My husband and I were on the Mediterranean Bliss tour in late June/early July. This was our first trip to Italy and it was fantastic! Every detail was well planned and thoughtful. The hotels were beautiful in all the locations. Our city guides were very knowledgeable in every location that we visited and could answer any question, no matter how random, that we asked. Our trip guide, Alessio, was also this knowledgeable, friendly, and made every day fun. The tours, food and hotels were top notch. We also used their custom planning to add an extension to Florence at the end of the tour. The planning was executed well and the tours that we had were just what we wanted. The support given by Nada's was excellent as we ran into a delay in our train arrival to Florence. The team went into action and made adjustments so that we still made it to our tour that afternoon. I highly recommend Nada's Italy for those of us who want an exceptional experience!"
