Religious Tours of Italy

Thank you for an experience we will never forget. Our Vatican tour guide was wonderful. We had 6 children, ages 8 and 15, and she captured their attention with just the right amount of detail. She selected a colorful local restaurant for lunch, which was also a hit with our group. She has wonderful English skills and is very knowledgeable in history and art. I travel a great deal and she is one of the best.

I came across Nancy Aiello Tours via CiaoBambino. Another family member was arranging tours, and having done this before, I was not comfortable with what I was reading in the tour he had selected. Many tours say children friendly which means they throw in a few items for the kids, but it is the usual adult tour. With 6 children I wanted a tour directed to them with the adults on the sidelines. Our guide gave us that, and the children were totally engaged. I would definitely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to my family and friends.

I travel with my kids constantly and so far this has been the best tours we have been on. We took a tour in Rome and Florence. Both were outstanding. I couldn’t believe how engrossed both guides were able to keep our kids. Just when they might lose them they would ask a question or pull out a visual. I feel like myself, my husband, and my three kids (13, 10, and 7) got a ton out of both tours. We learned a lot and saw a lot. Often when visiting European cities we get lost and turned around walk to much and just plain wear our kids out. The beauty of the tour is the guide knows exactly where they are going and you will see tons of attractions and sights in a short period of time. What we saw in 4 hours would have taken us 4 days!

Please do share this with Ann. We learned about Nancy Aiello Tours through Ciao Bambino on line while searching for kid friendly guides to Rome. We had about 6 to choose from and I chose yours after reading the reviews.
Ann was absolutely indispensable in planning our trip. She was very friendly and not only welcomed our questions, but answered ALL of them promptly and in an exceptionally organized manner. She is very efficient and you are lucky to have her on your team. She could not have made planning our time in Rome easier than she did. She even helped me choose a hotel. I asked for recommendations for hotels with pools knowing that my children would want to relax after sightseeing. These are apparently hard to find in Rome but she suggested several. I would just like to add our hotel to your list of hotels with pools in Rome. The Crown Plaza Hotel at St. Peter’s. While it was an American Hotel off the beaten path, it was luxurious and very accommodating especially for the price. We took both public transportation and cabs to get to the city and the Vatican.
Lucia was also an excellent tour guide in Rome and we enjoyed being with her every day. Her knowledge of the city was expansive and almost unbelievable. We all appreciated her laid back manner and her efforts in always trying to engage our boys.
I will definitely recommend your company to others traveling abroad especially those with children. Thank you for your services and giving me the opportunity to write this review.
