Client who went on the "Highlights of Rome Pompeii Capri & Sorrento" tourIt is our pleasure to state a testimonial. We enjoyed every minute of our tour. Each day was wonderful. The accommodations were first rate and comfortable. The buses were air conditioned and clean. We were treated respectfully and with a great deal of charm. The Tour Director was warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. Our tours in Rome and Pompeii were excellent. This was a vacation, and a enchanting learning experience for us. We have recommended this tour to many family members and friends.
Client who went on the "" tourMy daughter and I just returned from this wonderful trip and we want to thank all at Riviera who made this possible. The hotels were elegant, and the meals very French and delicious. We ate and drank in such beautiful settings, and thoroughly enjoyed the sights and sounds of France. Our coach drivers were all very helpful and geniuses at making their way around what looked to me to be a difficult driving situation with roads so narrow and the zigzagging crazy motorcyclists.
Mostly though, I want to thank you for our fabulous tour director. They are extremely knowledgeable about all things French and gave so freely of his time and energies to make sure that all of us were comfortable and that we saw what we wanted to see. They are an absolute gem. The Tour director was always on time-even if we were a bit tardy. He made arrangements for everything, and he is just plain fun to hang out with. He is an outstanding choice for a tour leader.
I plan to write to the Chicago Tribune to rave about this trip, and I hope that you can continue to offer tours to Americans-especially if they are as good as this one.
Thank you very much—merci beaucoup!
Client who went on the "Highlights of Italy - Rome, Florence, Pisa & Venice" tourHighlights of Italy
This was our first trip with Riviera Tours and my wife and I were so pleased with the total experience. Our Tour Director, was phenomenal. The local guides in Rome, Venice and Florence were excellent. We were attracted by the itinerary, but also by the train travel between cities. The luggage was transferred for us, so we never had to drag suitcases from place to place.Our Tour Director of course was everywhere. He made the trip memorable with his stories and historical perspectives on the places we visited. We especially liked the casual walks around Rome, Venice, Florence - and Pisa and Assisi.They took care of everything we needed - ticketing for the Eurostar, the Metro in Rome, the trains and water taxis in Venice. He enthusiastically provided all information we needed about when and where to meet, and was never at a loss for local restaurant recommendations for lunch and dinner. They made us all feel like we were travelling with a good friend.
We will definitely book more tours with Riviera - and most of our friends have already heard about what a great experience we had on this trip. You’re the best!
Client who went on the "Highlights of Italy - Rome, Florence, Pisa & Venice" tourDear Riviera Tours Travel Team,
We would like to submit these comments from our recent tour.
There are two things that made this a five-star tour, Riviera and the Tour Director. The tour was well organized and professional managed. We cannot praise the Tour Director enough as they were simply fantastic. Every day they continued to inform us on all the details of what we were about to encounter, gave us detail maps and gave us suggestions to make our tour to best ever. I don’t think there could be a better director anywhere. All the hotels were great as well as the transportation. The tour exceeded all of our expectations. One of the major highlights was the trip to Assisi. We would have never thought to see this city if we were planning the trip ourselves. This was our first group tour and overall it was a wonderful experience. I cannot recommend this tour enough, a first class tour that has no negatives. We look forward to our next tour with Riviera.
Thank You,
Client who went on the "Highlights of England" tourThanks for providing this delightful tour for my enjoyment. The accommodations and the associated service and dining facilities were always of a high standard.
Having been an Anglophile and student of English history for many, many years this was the perfect tour for my first visit to England. I enjoyed the selection of tour stops which was obviously very well considered, including the substitution of the trip upriver to see Hampton Court instead of Kensington Palace. The colorful Tudors deserved the attention. I cannot imagine a finer tour guide. They combined an affable and entertaining personality with an extensive knowledge of the places and the flavor of the places visited. He was always ready to answer or research any question that came up regarding English history, geography, or sociology. Importantly to me, he kept good humor when I occasionally had the impertinence to correct him. More importantly, in turn, he was not afraid to gently correct me when I was off a bit. the guide’s sidekick, the driver, was also a wonderful, complementary (not complimentary) personality. I am sure I will be contacting Riviera Tours in the future for other trips I wish to take.
