Another Masterpiece

16/11/2025

This was our 4th trip through Secret Italia Tours, and each has been great. The food, the venues, our wonderful guide Niki, the hotels, all were top notch. We really knew very little about the area prior to our trip, but from our first day in Porto Venere everything was perfect. Carol and I are amazed at how well Aldo (and his staff) create such consistently great tours. Additionally, they came to our assistance when we had a near disaster created by British Airways during our layover in London. Basically, our tickets to Florence from London were cancelled and we were forced to remain at Heathrow airport for an entire day, setting back our travel and arrival details completely. We really had no idea what we would do. Aldo and his staff took over. They found us a last minute reservation at a hotel in Florence where we had stayed previously. In fact, the new driver that we had for our trip to Porto Venere from Pisa was our old friend Walter from our original Toscano adventure. Aldo’s experienced folks took an unhappy incident and turned it into a very pleasant reunion, so to speak. It was a great surprise seeing our old friend Walter. I must speak about our guide Niki. Aldo, what a terrific addition to your staff. She is smart and caring and organized and clearly loves what she does. We had so much fun with her, and we would happily sign up for any tour that she might lead. And thank you Manuela for all of your help and for tolerating my insisting on speaking or writing in Italian in virtually all of my communication with you. Carol and I highly recommend this trip to beautiful Liguria.

Beautiful Liguria

Ciao Aldo and Manuela,

Just wanted to let you know that Clare and I had a fantastic time on your tour of Liguria. We both thought it was a great itinerary and well planned. We had never even heard of Liguria before, and we can’t believe what a beautiful place it is. And the food there was out of this world. The seafood was incredibly fresh and the trofie pesto and polpo were amazing. Also had lots of great wine that we had never heard of before! Niki did a great job of running the tour, and seems to have unending energy and enthusiasm. She really was a great tour director.

Best to you all and looking forward to our next adventure with you!

Best regards,

Tom and Clare

Thank you for an excellent tour of the Piedmont!

Just wanted to let you know that Clare and I really enjoyed our tour, the first time in Italy for me. It’s a beautiful region that was well worth exploring, and the tour guides did a great job filling us with sights and information. The cuisine and the wine were also first-rate, and the cooking class and truffle hunt/picnic are things we won’t soon forget. The pace of the tour was excellent for us to explore on our own or just relax at poolside for an afternoon. It was an excellent experience, and we hope to join you again on a future tour. Thanks for delivering such a wonderful experience! Here’s a picture for you that we took while enjoying sunset and a glass of wine at the hotel.

In Love With The Piedmont Tour

26/10/2023

Ciao Aldo,

I just wanted to let you know that we enjoyed the Piedmont Tour tremendously. It was probably one of the best tours we have ever been on. Felicity Moran was a great guide and was matched perfectly with this tour through Piedmont. All the hotels were excellent, and all our group meals were all culinary experiences that were not to be missed. I especially enjoyed touring the various vineyards and sampling their wines. The truffle hunt was also a once in a lifetime experience. All the small towns in the Barolo and Barbaresco area were especially memorable since Clara and I appreciate the fine wines of this area. Going to Aosta was a great way to end the tour along with its Roman history. The itinerary was perfectly planned. Each day was a memorable experience at a leisurely pace. Thanks again for a great tour and experience visiting Piedmont and Aosta.
