    We were very happy with the hotels in Amalfi and Tuscany

    Traveled to Italy

    We were very happy with the hotels in Amalfi and Tuscany and having driver service at all our stops. The customer support team provided links and emails with all the information we needed. They did their best to make adjustments when needed, although it didn't work out very well. The whole Lupaia experience was the highlight of our trip. The accommodations and staff exceeded expectations. Our hotel was in Amalfi, not Positano. It was spectacular and beautiful. We loved everything about it. Francesco was our driver all week and was excellent. We enjoyed him a lot.

    Really liked our Italy travel

    Traveled to Italy

    Really liked the two main hotels, particularly the Albergo Del Sennato right NEXT to Pantheon: a very pleasant surprise. Guides were terrific, knowledgeable and nice- particularly enjoyed our day at the Colosseum, where we were shown Campo del Fiori and the best place for cappucino. Next time, I would suggest scheduling some evening tours or activities on some of the days, as our tours all ended by 1:00. Things went very smoothly logistically for the most part- hotels, guides, and drivers were on top of everything.
