All I can say is Thank You. The experience we had was nothing short of excellent. It started with Rachel and her responding to all my needs. As for our driver, Fabio, if this is the kind of drivers you employ, you’ll continue to have great success. He was by far the best driver I’ve ever experienced and with all my travel, I’ve experienced many. Great job with Fabio. As for our tour guide, everyone and I mean everyone should be so lucky. Her name was Lucia and all four of us felt not only did she possess unbelievable knowledge, we felt like she was family. Her ability to manage us, the time we had and that we wanted to see was fantastic. We HIGHLY recommend Lucia to everyone. As I close, I feel these words fall short of what we experienced. To say we would recommend Nancy Aiello Tours would be an understatement, in fact, I’ve already recommended Nancy Aiello Tours, Fabio and Lucia to several friends planning a trip in the coming months.
Thank you again, and feel free to use me as an endorsement at any time.
