"Derek planned a taste of Italy trip for us that far surpassed our expectations. Our itinerary included Rome, Pompeii, Capri, Florence, Tuscany, Venice, and Lake Como. All our accommodations were first class and centrally located in each city. We could walk to explore each area from our hotel. He arranged private tours of each city, including a private guide at the Vatican. He timed all tours so we had time to explore independently also - each day was perfect. Having private guides to discuss Italy’s rich history added to our understanding and appreciation for each area. We toured Ancient Rome and Pompeii in addition to the local history in each area. We drank wine at a vineyard in Tuscany and took a cooking class. We had a private charter around Capri and up the Amalfi Coast. Each day was amazing. Our hotel accommodations were outstanding. Derek’s knowledge of the area was apparent not only in the tours he scheduled but in the locations of our hotels. It was an excellent adventure through Italy. This was our first trip that was planned by Derek and the best trip we have ever had. We will certainly use Derek to plan our future travels!
