Group size varies from tour to tour; you will find a range of small group tours from 15-20 people to larger group tours up to 50. Depending on the season, typically you will find 30-50 people on the majority of the coach tours. There is lots of free time on all of our tours, so you will have plenty of opportunities to explore destinations with your partner, friends, or relatives in between our guided sightseeing excursions. And there are some optional excursions to the Amalfi Coast and to see the Leaning Tower in Pisa—not everyone on the tour will join these excursions, so groups will be smaller.
The pace of the tour varies from tour to tour. Usually shorter tours where time is limited are faster paced than some of our longer tours. As a general rule, we want to help you see as much of Italy as possible during your tour. On some days we will visit two or three destinations per day. In some of these you will enjoy guided sightseeing, whilst in others time will be free for you to find a restaurant for lunch or explore how you see fit. However, rest assured that in the main destinations, such as Venice and Florence, you will enjoy plenty of time to explore, usually with at least one overnight stay. Information about leisure time and tour activities can be found in our tour itineraries.
