    Traveled to Italy

    My daughter and I had a wonderful time. Firebird did a terrific job putting our itinerary together! Hotels were great and had great locations so that we could walk to places in the evenings after the daytime tours for dinner and browsing.

    Impressions of the Italian tour Cultural Capitals

    Traveled to Italy

    The most impressive guide was for Pompeii and Amalfi cost with the full day activities until 9:00 pm. The Rome guide was even willing to spend extra time to drive us to the Borghese gallery after the full length of the tour.
