FRANCES DUNLEVIE, AUSTRALIA (SICILY MAY 11,2019)
Thank you for organizing the Sicily tour- it was wonderful. Every place was special in its own way and all were interesting with so much to see and do. Hotels were good and the organisation was excellent. The dinner with the family was a lovely surprise. The cars and bus were great and Guiseppi Is a great driver – felt completely safe on the narrow roads.However, even with the beautiful hotels , towns and activities the tour would not have been as successful without Rosaria. Her knowledge of places, her determination to ensure everyone had a great time, her willingness to answer any question / sort any problem and most important her abundant enthusiasm and wonderful personality made the trip. She is a gem and an asset to your company. I would go on any tour where Rosaria was a guide.

MR AND MRS MCDANIEL, USA Sicily small group tour October 2019
After being home 3 days , I am still reliving our wonderful trip.Everything was far better than we ever expected. The flawless connections from hotels to buses to taxis were amazing.All of the hotels were perfectly located and charming in each city. The restaurants and food was great. We loved Gisseppi our calm and friendly bus driver.And now for Luca, He took the best care of us. Leading us so smoothly through every city.We fell in love with Luca and bonded with him and each other forever. He helped me find my heritage and the beauty of Sicily every step of the way. So happy we found Secretitalia.it. Your hard work and planning gave us a trip of a lifetime.I always knew I was proud of my Sicilian heritage but Luca and your company showed me a homeland I never could have imagined .

Hello Aldo,We returned from our wonderful trip to Sicily. We are so pleased that there was a spot for us on short notice. The trip was fantastic! Our group was easy and friendly—and most of all our guide, Luca was superb!!! He is excellent—so good at age 26! The pace, places we stayed, the sights we saw—you have put together an outstanding tour. We are hoping to look at Puglia for next year.Best wishes to you.

MRS J MITCHELL (CANADA) Sicily 12 days October 2019
My husband and I just finished our 11 day Secret Italia tour with Luca. It was one of the best tours we have ever been on and Luca was fantastic.The attention to detail was evident, the pace of the tour was perfect, the activities well planned and the variety greatly appreciated.The quality and location. of the hotels excellent and the food experiences fantastic. Our only complaint is that we put on a few pounds.A very special thanks and acknowledgement to Luca. His caring, thoughtful and professional manner are to be commended. We also loved his sense of humor and of course his beautiful voice which touched us all.Our tour group was also exceptional. We all got along so well and commented many times how much we liked travelling with a smaller group of travellers. The van we traveled in was very comfortable and our driver Giuseppe was very good. We felt safe and relaxed.You have truly discovered the secret of what it takes to create an exceptional tour experience and we will definitely spread the word.

MR AND MRS ELIPORI (USA), Puglia & Basilicata October 2019
My husband and I were searching the internet for a small group tour specifically covering the Puglia region of Italy when we came across Secret Italia Tours. Their Puglia/Basilicata itinerary fit the bill perfectly but we were at first hesitant to book the trip because Secret Italia was very small compared to the bigger and more well-known tour companies out there. After reading reviews and speaking personally with Aldo by phone several times, not only did we book the Puglia tour, Aldo also worked with us to put together a private four day add-on tour of the Amalfi coast. We just got back a week ago and can honestly say it was one of the most wonderful travel experiences we have ever hadAll accommodations were in small boutique hotels located in or very close to the city center.In addition to breakfast, included meals each day, either a lunch or a dinner, highlighted the specialties of the region and left us all quite full and very happy! From the olives, cheeses and Salumi, to the grilled vegetables, fresh pastas and seafood, pizza, taralli, and luscious desserts, we were simply in food heaven!While we stayed in four different cities, we also visited many small towns along the way with ample free time for exploring. There were also wine tastings, an olive oil tasting, a hands-on bread-making experience, Sunday dinner at a family-run working farm, and a cheese making demonstration, among other things, which were all informative and fun.Our trip was made even more enjoyable by Paola, our guide. Not only was she very well-organized, professional, knowledgeable, warm and friendly, she also had a wonderful sense of humor. Truly a delight to be with!All other elements of the trip like transfers to/from airport or train station, luggage handling, bus transport throughout the tour, communications regarding payments, final itinerary and other pertinent info, were all excellent. During our separate personalized Amalfi tour, the outstanding service continued with great drivers and tour guides as we visited Amalfi, Ravello, Positano, Sorrento and Pompei. Aldo checked in with us daily to make sure everything was perfect!If you’re thinking about using Secret Italia Tours for your next vacation, don’t hesitate another moment. You will NOT be disappointed!

MR AND MRS GOODMAN (USA), Puglia & Basilicata September 2019
Hi Aldo, We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our recent Secret Italia Tour of Puglia. We have traveled a lot all over Europe, but our time in Puglia was probably the best vacation we’ve ever had. Every little detail was planned to perfection, and Paola was the epitome of an informed, fun and caring tour leader. Our hotels were very comfortable and offered delicious breakfasts. The restaurants (and other food offerings) were wonderful. The many sites we visited were interesting and varied. There was free time included so we could also explore on our own or rest. The small bus that ferried us from place to place was comfortable and always waiting for us at the appointed time and place. We saw a lot, ate a lot, laughed a lot and learned a lot – doesn’t get any better than that! Our thanks and congratulations to you for offering such a fine tour. Hope to travel with Secret Italia Tours to another interesting place!

I just completed the Sicily tour and wanted to let you know what a wonderful experience it was. You have a real treasure in Rosaria. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were contagious. The whole group bonded and were unified in our admiration for Rosaria.The hotels were very nice, especially the final villa in Taormina.I could go on and on about the food, but that too was terrific. Many thanks to Secret Italia!

MRS L GOODMAN (NEW ZEALAND) Sardinia & Corsica, October 7,2019
Hello Aldo and Katrin,Now we are back in N Z we have been reflecting on our time in Sardinia and Corsica.I can only say it was all wonderful!Paola was such a good guide – it all seemed so well organised – even when there were small hiccups they were discreetly solved .
We thought the hotels were superb and the food was fantastic!!Loved the variety of visits from history,and archaeology to cathedrals, churches and from a personal point of view the crafts , wineries , cheese & oil production.The bus was very comfortable and the driver superb.I can’t really think of any downside ( except perhaps walking out to restaurants when tired – but we are in our 70 ‘s ).Generally it catered beautifully for a range of ages and fitness and a good amount of free time.We were very lucky with the weather and the company.
Not sure this helps you make changes.Many thanks for a great holiday with new experiences.

MRS BLACKSTONE (CANADA), SICILY MARCH 2019
I wanted to write and let you know how much we enjoyed Secret Italia’s tour of Sicily earlier this month.It has been my dream to visit the island for some time now, but I must say the tour exceeded our expectations, not only because we were surprised at the breadth and beauty of both Sicily’s landscape and its fascinating history, but also because your choice of restaurants and other interesting venues helped give us an in-depth perspective on the local foods, wine and people of the island.Being strangers to the area and not speaking the language, it’s something we could not have done on our own. The time we spent there was jam-packed with activity, which is something we look for in a vacation, and we came away full of great memories.Finally, I’d like to say how much our guide Luca added to the experience. We felt like royalty as he took care of all the things – such as drivers, local guides and restaurant reservations – that often make visiting a new country a confusing and sometimes harrowing experience. Luca’s extensive knowledge of the island’s history and culture, his clear communication about where we were going or why plans might have to change, as well as his fun and friendly personality, made us all fall in love with him, something you warned us would happen in one of your pre-tour information reports!We surely will recommend Secret Italia’s Sicily tour as a terrific way to enjoy this part of the world.

ANNETTE AND TONY LOMBARDI, USA (PUGLIA- APRIL 29,2019)
We recently returned from our trip with Secret Italia Tours in Puglia & Basilicata. We wanted to let you know that our trip from April 29th through May 10th was absolutely fabulous! We have traveled to Europe numerous times over the years, on our own and with other tour companies.Your attention to detail in planning a wonderful itinerary in every location is unsurpassed. You and your wife are to be commended for your excellence in running a very special family tour company. You deserve all of the accolades and awards you receive! Our trip was a perfect blend in each city of guided tours, fun experiences, delicious food, wine and gelato (Tony’s favorite) as well as free time. Our hotels were all delightful in their own unique way. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in every location. It was so interesting to learn new things about each area. I was delighted to realize that we were so close to where my maternal Italian relatives lived prior to immigrating to the United States. My mother’s grandparents were from Picerno and she was so excited when I told her how close we were! Tony’s parents were both from Italy, so he was able to understand and from time to time actually speak Italian! We traveled with our dear friend, Anne Browne, but made new friends in our group. We loved the small group size and were able to get to know everyone quite well. As you are well aware, our tour manager, Paola is a true gem! We had so much fun with her leading the way! She was also very helpful to us, particularly in regards to Tony’s missing luggage (unfortunately, it is still traveling the world on its own). Prior to my retirement, I was in the public sector as a manger for the State of Connecticut and had staff who worked very hard. I value the importance of having the right people to do the job. This is another testament to you as the owner of your fine company.
In closing, thank you for an amazing trip filled with a lifetime of wonderful memories and lots of funny stories! Until next time, ciao!
