What’s it going to cost for a private vacation?

This is the number one question I get and and the hardest question to answer because I don't have pre-set, pre-packaged tours just sitting on my website so you can see the package and the price and decide for yourself. Here at Custom Tours of Italy I work with you through many conversations to determine how you'd like to travel and where you'd like to go an what you'd like to do before we can determine what a trip is going to cost.

I work alone and pride myself on being able to taylor make your trip to exactly how you want to experience Italy. It could your first time there or you've been there before on a packaged tour or a Cruise ship "drive by" and now you want to get more into a more real Italian experience and want to hire a private guide.

Italy is by far the hardest country to travel in but it's the most rewarding in my opinion. The combination of the cities, the sites, the food and the people won me over starting way back in 1997. If you've started looking into all the tour companies and all the possibilities and are turned off on some of the things that come with the tours then you've landed on the right place by googling "private Italian tour guides".

If you've started to try to start planning your trip yourself and are realizing that it's a lot harder then you thought it would be, then you've landed on the right place.

I'm an Italy tour expert and only do Italy and love to show people this great country year after year. Often times many of my trips come in around $400 a day per person and sometimes that includes your coach airfare as well. That means we're staying in decent 3 and 4 star places and NOT splurging on Business class airfare and 5 star hotels everywhere. BUT, if thats how you want to travel, 5 star hotels and Business class and you like that, then I book that, then we do that...

If you have a set amount of days, say only 14 days for a vacation and you're not retired yet - I can work with that. That means for me, I can book us into 4 locations and 3 nights in each place, 12 days in Italy - I usually don't book less then this, too much moving anything else. If you're retired and you have 21 days to go to Italy then we obviously go to more places.

The first step is that you're googling alternative ways to get yourself to Italy thats not on a pre-set pacakged tour or cruise ship. This is where I come into play.
