Home - Want To Know The Cost Of A Trip To Italy Ciao Italy 718 351-4300

We booked two tours on our trip to Italy - one was in Rome for the Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums and the Basilica - the other was a day trip from Florence to Cinque Terre. The latter tour was fantastic and everything we had hoped for - well organized, wonderful tour guide and a great way to see a very special part of Italy. The first tour, however, was a complete let down. We started out with a large group of about 26 - however from the group meeting location to the starting point of the museum, an individual of a couple got lost. We spent 30 minutes outside the entrance to the museum while our group leader ran around trying to find the lost individual.

Needless to say we started the tour late and then ended up ending the tour 30 minutes earlier than we were supposed to. I am not sure if the tour guide, upon starting late, rushed us through the rest but it seemed that it was far too fast paced and we feel rushed throughout the entire tour. Very sad and frustrated that we were not able to fully enjoy the museums, the Sistine Chapel and the Basilica. I would recommend for this tour in Rome - the groups are smaller or you have two group leaders to assist with maneuvering such a large group from the meeting point to the entrance since it is a bit chaotic.

We went through Ciao Italy for a "Skip the Lines" tour of the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, and the Basilica in Rome, Italy. The tour was a major highlight of our entire cruise, and all of us agreed that our tour guide was both knowledgeable and interesting. We only had one day to spend in Rome and Ciao Italy provided us with a memorable one. The company also gave us a translation guide of common phrases in Italian; we were well-prepared for our tour! We visited 4 other cities in Italy so the information given to us by Ciao Italy was truly invaluable.

My experience has been great its my second time to use
ciao Italy & carrani tours and they have been great!!!!!

My clients recently returned from Italy. The private transfers and guides were excellent. They even waited for our train to arrive before helping up board before they left. Ciao Italy and Carrani Tours lives up to their reputation as an excellent tour operator.

Ciao Italy is a phenomenal supplier for everything Italy.
I know when I send clients with Ciao Italy they are going to come back raving about their trip. Never a single complaint. Guido and his staff take care of all. Grazie mille!

We organized a faboulous trip for our client in Italy with Ciao Italy travel. We thank all the staff for their amazing suggestions and tips, hotel recommendations like the Boutique Hotel Monte Cenci in Rome. Suggestions about tours in Tuscany and a very nice Hotel in the Amalfi coast. Renee is the best to organize everything!

My wife and I just got back from our honeymoon, we traveled throughout Italy for 2 weeks visiting many different cities and towns all over the country.
Guido from Ciao Italy was truly amazing. He organized the best tours with the most convenient transportation. Traveling in a different country can be very difficult but guido and ciao Italy tours made it extremely effortless and such a pleasant experience.
He outlined a thorough itinerary for each and every day. Each night we would look at our itinerary to see what adventure we had to look forward to for the following day. We would wake up and there would be a driver at the hotel waiting for us in the lobby to escort us to wherever we were going.
He was also very easily accessible by phone so anytime we needed anything he was always available for us.
I highly recommend Guido and Ciao Italy to anyone who is looking to travel, he made our honeymoon very special and I couldn’t be more appreciative. It was a trip we will definitely never forget. Thank you!!!!

I arranged private customized Sicily tours both last year and this year for clients of our agency. In both cases, although the tours were different and had separate focuses, the clients were totally thrilled with their trips. I am very satisfied with the company and recommend them highly.

The best part of my clients Italy cruise/tour was the Rome portion. They had a private transfer
And a private tour of Rome. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend Ciao Italy.

This is the first time I worked with Ciao Italy and Isida and I was very impressed. So were my clients. They liked the individual service and going to the front of the line on some tourist places, especially the Sistine Chapel. Being driven around in a private car was something special to them and made their trip even more wonderful.
I will truly be back to book more clients throughout their Italian travels.

I have used Ciao Italy & Carrani Tours for several years and they don't disappoint my clients. I've been told how wonderful their guides and drivers are and the reservation staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. Great company to work with

Fabulous tour operator for Italy! If you are traveling to Italy look no further. From the great options to the amazing activities they do Italy best.

No one knows Italy like Ciao! We like the many options they offer and the ability to completely customize a tour to the clients wishes.

My husband and I were extremely pleased with our 3 day stay in Rome with 1 day trip to Florence via high speed train. The private transfers were exceptional!! as were the guides in each location. Very professional. Everything went smoothly without a catch and we enjoyed the Hotel Empire Palace in Rome. Lovely quiet neighborhood with 3 nice restaurants few steps from the hotel. Isida at home office took care of everything and we highly recommend Ciao Italy and Carrani Tours!!

First time working with Ciao Italy. They were great putting a tour together for my customer. They mixed packages together to form the trip my client wanted. My rep Isida was patient with me and made changes as needed. My customer came back with great reviews saying the transfer drivers were worth the money and needed to help navigate with luggage.
They loved the cooking class and small group tours. They thought the big group tour of Tuscany was to long and much but glad they saw the sights.
I will use Ciao again. I just wish they had weekend hours so that I can respond to customers requests/questions that I work with on the weekends.

Everything the booked for our Clients in Italy was five star*****
They had private airport transfers, private tours in Rome. Everything was perfect. Market Street Travel uses them because they make us look good.

We booked our trip to Italy with Guido of Ciao Italy. Guido was careful to attend to every detail. He made sure that all went as planned from picking two beautiful hotels -Hotel Monte Cenci in Rome and Hotel Mediterraneo Sorrento in Sorrento to multiple private car pick ups, the custom tour of Rome and day trip to Florence, cooking school, lemon cello tasting, and private boat tour of the Amalfi coast and Capr/Anacapri.
As this was a trip of a lifetime, there are no words that can describe how pleased we are with Ciao Italy and Guido.
I look forward to working with Guido again and returning to Italy for another beautiful vacation!
