“Another well organized trip which went very smoothly. Thanks to Hannah Netting for her impeccable planning and helpful suggestions. Thanks too for sorting out flowers for Valentines Day in Florence! Hotels in Rome and Florence were superb in terms of comfort and location. They were very different, one very traditional and one very luxurious, but well chosen. Our guide Ingrid for the Forum was very knowledgeable and good company. Our guide Davide at the Vatican was superb. Taxi drivers for transfers in Florence were both excellent. We felt safe and well looked after. We loved everything about the Hotel Brunelleschi and would not hesitate to return. All the staff were excellent, especially Sergio on reception and the front office Manager. We are glad you recommended the Firenze Card which enabled us to pack in plenty of sightseeing and beating the queues at each attraction. We didn’t realize we had to pick up the actual card from a ticket office until we tried to go to the Boboli Gardens, but after a swift walk we were sorted! Thanks again. Caroline and Ross”

Good afternoon Ross, Thank you for your fantastic feedback, I am so pleased you both had a great time. I have forwarded your feedback to everyone involved. You are right - the hotels are quite different to each other and I think reflect the city rather well. I hope you will consider us again for your next trip! Kind regards Hannah

“My friend, Helen, had long wished to see Venice at Carnivale; and I was charged to realise a dream. With the help of these folk - Italian Short Breaks - that was achieved. Our hotel - the Metropole - was of the first water. One of those places that does cost a little more but that shows you from the start that your investment is going to give excellent returns. From our arrival (by water taxi) via many days of pampering (and not overlooking unspeakably excellent hot chocolate) we felt welcomed and indulged throughout. A highlight of our trip was to participate in the Mascheranda; which we both really enjoyed. That, together with walking through the city in our costumes - not necessarily something I had been looking forward to, by the way - proved an excellent experience and really made us feel part of the carnival rather than just observers. Well done, Italian Short Breaks; and many thanks to you and yours all.”

“The combination of the Orient Express and the Hotel Metropole in Venice which was suggested was absolutely perfect, as was the Michelin star taster meal The organisation and transfers all went completely smoothly. The hotel even provided a free bottle of sparkling wine on the evening of the special meal”

“Organisation very efficient. Excellent seats at La Scala. Transfers on time and comfortable. Wondered what the definition of a Superior room was at the Rosa Grand hotel? Although both rooms were comfortable neither had any view. One was far lighter than the other which was much smaller and darker. Also the second room had no bath although the shower was spacious. Staff at the hotel were helpful and friendly.”

“Being met at the airport and taken back at the end. The guide was excellent although we were not told we would have to pay for a return taxi to see the last supper mural”

Good afternoon Shirley, Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent Milan trip with us. I will forward this to everyone involved. I'm a little bit confused about your comment about the taxi - as it is around a 15-20mins walk from The Last Supper to your hotel, we do offer the option of either walking or arranging your own taxi locally, so not quite sure what happened here. Kind regards Hannah

“Everything went according to plan. Excellent seating in the Arena to see the opera, hotel ideal for walking into Verona old town and to the Arena. The staff at the hotel were friendly and welcoming, also the rooms were well appointed and comfortable.. The Verona card proved to be ideal and good value for money for the short break as we were able to use public transport and access the sites with ease. On balance, the trip exceeded our expectations. thank you.”

“Transfers were really smooth with lovely limos. The hotel was fabulous, with lots of polite and extremely helpful staff. The constantly available drinks and the hors d'oeuvre availble in the bar were a nice bonus. The tours we took were pretty expensive but worth it for the personal touch. We didn't need to book hold baggage for a short stay and only took cabin baggage. That was rather a waste of money so maybe clients should have their attention drawn to the fact that there is a choice on that one. Aida at the coliseum was wonderful and we had the best seats in the place! Fabulous. You don't need to be an opera lover to enjoy a spectacle like this! Verdict: Expensive but worth it.”
