What our clients are saying about their journeys through Southern Italy
Wonderful tour of Rome and Amalfi Coast Rome & Amalfi Coast , NSW, Australia, Mar 2026
It was great to be back in historic Rome, especially exploring with a group. Our local guides were knowledgeable and the hotel's central location made it easy for us to see the city's major landmarks. The transition to Amalfi Coast was seamless with well organised excursions. We enjoyed the stunning coastal views. We stayed in Vietri sul Mare, a quieter read more base with beautiful scenery, though we would have preferred Salerno for more activity and easier access to restaurants and transport.
The extension to Naples was an eye-opener. We were glad to experience its organised chaos. We were surprised the group wasn't taken to Piazza del Plebiscito, which we discovered on our own.

Our tour manager Giorgio kept everything running smoothly and our driver Luigi ensured we were taken to our tour destinations safe and on time. Our group of 31, all from the States and who mostly knew each other, with just the two of us from Australia, was warm and friendly making the experience even more enjoyable.
Also have to highlight the help from Tracey Standing, who assisted us in reinstating the tour in time after we had cancelled due to uncertainty in our flights via Abu Dhabi. We're glad we made it to this trip.

Leisurely Puglia tour Secrets of Puglia , QLD, Australia, Oct 2025
This was my 1st Backroads tour. This is a regional tour visiting some lovely scenic towns. Lecce was my favourite: biggest town we visited with wonderful limestone Baroque architecture. We stayed in a lovely palazzo here. Very energetic, fun, tour leader. A full group of 18. Bus was very cramped and not comfortable. Thank goodness we weren't travelling read more long distances. My gluten free diet request was well catered for at all hotels and included dinners. The last 2 hotels we stayed in were quite basic. I am usually a solo traveller. On this tour I travelled with a Canadian friend. We prefer a busier, more active style of travelling. I felt this tour was more suited to couples rather than solo travellers.This was the 2nd of 3 tours over 6 weeks that I arranged with the friendly and professional assistance of Georgie and Hannah.
Fun, supportive, worry free holiday in Amalfi! Highlights of the Amalfi Coast , QLD, Australia, Aug 2025

Walking in Puglia and Matera for a first timer Walking in Puglia & Matera , VIC, Australia, May 2025
I had a wonderful experience and travelled with a great group on this walking tour. Our guide, Gabriele was absolutely fabulous. I was a little nervous doing one of these tours as I had never done one before but found it terrific. The places we stayed in were lovely and the landscape and walks memorable. Lots of wildflowers and poppies along the way...
Country Roads of Southern Italy and Sicily Country Roads of Southern Italy & Sicily , VIC, Australia, May 2025
We enjoyed this tour along the country roads of Southern Italy and Sicily, with a cohesive group of people from the U.S, Canada and Australia. Our tour guide, Mark, was highly rated, as well as the individual local guides. We transferred to Insight this time over Trafalgar in order to upgrade the position of our hotels to more central locations. We read more were most disappointed with hotels placed a distance far away from central locations. We were expecting a higher standard from Insight.
