GBFabulous Trip to Sicily Ciao Italy did a fabulous job arranging our last minute trip to Sicily. The accommodations, tour guides and drivers that Ciao Italy arranged were amazing! The Hotel Boras was beautiful and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Our tour guide Marina was a wealth of knowledge and just so sweet! And our drivers were friendly, efficient and safe. I have to compliment our driver, Cenzo for not only getting us to my grandfathers village safely, but helping us locate our family there! That is something we never thought would happen. Ciao Italy soiled us and I can’t imagine planning a trip to Italy without using them again!

GB2023-Family Vacation We all just returned back from the most amazing Family Vacation celebrating my cousins 50th Birthday. It was such a fantastic, once of a lifetime experience on our private tours. Mario in Rome was extremely knowledgeable in regards to the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, St. Peter’s Cathedral, Colosseum etc. He made our tour very interesting. Salvatore in Positano, Amalfi Coast, Sorrento and Winery was also extremely informative and entertaining. He and the driver made our long trip alot of fun with music and singing on the way back to our ship. Both tours were awesome and all 11 of us were really impressed with our tours and the guides. Thank you Ciao Italy. 🇮🇹❤️😘

GBCiao Italy knows Italy!!! We started planning very close to travel dates but Ciao Italy worked with our local agent to get us into great hotels in Florence, Milan, and Rome. They booked tours for us: some private and some small group as well as transportation. The highlight was an expensive private tour of the Vatican Musuem and St Peter's Basilica. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly but also politely assertive with other tour guides to move us through without waiting anywhere. The architecture, the church, and the extensive collection of artworks, including walls and ceilings completed by Raphael, Michelangelo, and others is so vast that this really is the best way to take as much in as a day allows. Tours of ancient Rome, highlights of Rome, highlights of Florence (Uffizi and Accademia Gallery), and train tickets between cities were included. Details and vouchers were provided for printing.

GBConfirm with Sub-Vendors Most of the client experience that I booked through CIAO Italy was good. The couple of experiences that went bad were due to CIAO Italy not confirming with their sub-vendors that everything was all set. Both bad issues were in transportation. One local company had the wrong date for the transportation, and the other the driver got lost on a 2.1 mile ride...and the driver was a local. Not quite sure how that happens. Neither of these issues were CIAO Italy's fault, but I think they should get in the habit of confirming the information with their vendors so the clients have a smooth experience.
