"Patrick Twomey was great as our overall guide for the entire expedition and each local guide was the very best. Everything we hoped for was there is spades: Great food, fascinating tours, perfect locations for sightseeing on our own, spacious, well quipped bus. This was the best way to see those Canadiancitirs and provinces which we had never gotten around to exploring on our own."

"Wonderful, educational ,
Interesting, time well spent."

"Experience better than expected. Guide and driver were very good."

"This island has more history than I ever imagined. Each town has a unique story. Our Tour Director, Sabra, was a wealth of knowledge and provided us with details of every place we visited. Our bus driver, Mimmo, maneuvered our motor coach through very tight and challenging streets in order for us to get an idea of the lifestyles in each town. My only regret was not to have purchased the extension, because 11 days is not enough time to take in half of the history of Sicily. Thank you for another amazing, unforgettable experience. See you next year!"

"Excellent tour guide Patrick Long!!
Very nice accommodations. Close to public transportation.. loved using the Metro. Made some great new friends. "

"I was alittle concerned about being a single traveler at first but melted into the group very well. Tour guide was very organized professional and knowledgeable. I cant wait for my next tour"

"One of the main sights of Rome is the Roman Forum. We were in line, the weather was fine but the line was very long so our tour director made a decision to cancel this historical sight ! I am heartbroken. This trip was planned in early May so I cannot imagine how long the lines will be in the summertime. So anyone wanting to see the Roman Forum - good luck. I was surprised that we were scheduled lunch stops at gas stations along the Autostrada twice. Expensive and food that had been sitting in cafeteria trays for hours. Our tour director was knowledgeable and fun. But I am disappointed in not being able to see the Roman Forum. Our hotel in Rome was located very far away from the Central Rome in a suburban area. The Metro was a long walk away and 3 of the Metro exits that were closed. The Coloseum, Spanish Steps exit and then the next exit. Which made that way of transport to Cental city difficult. We ended up taking taxis which were very expensive since we were located so far from the city. I let GoAhead know about my concerns and disappointments and the offered me $100 off MY NEXT TRIP. not refunding my money I paid for transportation to Roman Forum, tickets to get in, the guide specifically hired for tour of Roman Forum. At this point, although I have travelled 5 times with GoAhead, I don't know if I want to pay in full for my trip and then get my flight arrangements and then get my hotel assignments. I am so disappointed. "

"I highly recommend this trip. The views were spectacular! We had an excellent guide, excellent meals, and met a lot of wonderful people. I look forward to traveling with Go Ahead Tours again!

"Go Ahead is a fine company. This was my 3rd trip with them. To start 1st hotel was too far from Lake Como. Next thing that has to be changed is only stay 1 day in Assisi. Add 1 day to Sorrento. Trips to glass blowing, leather, and cameo shops a waste of valuable vacation time. All in all it was a great trip, but it could have been superb. Our tour guide Chiara was wonderful. Lastly INCLUDE some of the optional tours like other companys."

"Excellent. Great great tour director cant Whitman for next trip "

"This tour tries to fit a lot into a short amount of time. When there were cancellations or delays as there were on our trip, there was no wigggle room to reschedule. Some in our group whose flight was delayed coming in to Athens really had only 1 full day to spend in the city. Our ferry to Mykanos the next morning was cancelled and the Delos add-on was also cancelled. Boxed breakfasts for early morning departures are not worth taking. A late arrival back to Athens followed by a late fantastic farewell dinner could not really be enjoyed due to a 3:15 a.m. departure from the hotel for the airport. Greece is beautiful but this tour did not do it justice."

"There were several additional trips added by the tour director. They were interesting but they needed to be paid for in cash, which was unexpected and unplanned which put me in a money crunch. Also meals that were " on your own" were several times organized by the tour director and, while good restaurants, did not always fit in with my plans and dietary needs. I ended up spending more on food than planned; again a financial crunch. The tour director was excellent but a little more notice would have been appreciated."

"My husband and I traveled to Italy with Go Ahead tours and I was so pleased with my experience that after my husband's passing I encouraged my Aunt and cousin to travel to London. We went to England to see where my father was born in Aldershot... an hour by train from London. It was awesome. Everyone on the tour was patient, informed and so helpful. Our tour guide Kay was exceptional and the hotel was very comfortable. My only issue was the inability to acquire family accomodations which ended up being more costly. I would travel with Go Ahead again. "

"This was our 4th Go Ahead tour and once again the tour guide was excellent and did many little things that made the tour personal and special. Hotels were excellent and in good locations with easy access to public transportation. We particularly loved the evening canal tour and dinner in Amsterdam and the WWII War Museum in Bastogne. We loved the stop at a family farm where the very entertaining farmer demonstrated both cheese making and the making of wooden shoes!"

"It was a tour of a life time. We can’t wait to book our next tour. Our Tour Director was wonderful. Loved the wine tasting tour. I wish we had more time then just 8 days."
