While our tour was good and our guide was excellent, I think the company is somewhat shady. We scheduled the tour for 10:30 am and it was confirmed by us and by them multiple times. The day before the tour they changed the time to 9 am and then changed it again to 8:30 am. One of our group was not able to make a tour that was 2 hours earlier than we had booked and he would have never have committed to that time or this tour at that time. When we requested a return of his portion of the money citing their change of the contract, it was denied with no explanation. For them to keep $182.68 when the issue was entirely their fault is very poor business practice.

The tour guide and driver were excellent. I would have given this tour 5 stars except for the vehicle that they used. It was a VW van and we were in the small 3rd seat. We are 6’3”:and 5’8” so it was very cramped. In addition, the air conditioning in the van was not working properly and it was extremely warm in the 3rd seat.

We had a wonderful tour, just the two of us, with a wonderful guide and driver. Castel Gondolpho was the highlight of the trip and especially the wine tasting at a beautiful restaurant overlooking the lake. Highly recommend.
