Along Europe's Scenic "Yellow Roads"
When you think of Italy... you evoke thoughts of leisurely cruises on picturesque lakes lined with villas against the backdrop of the Italian Alps... the Byzantine grandeur of San Marco and serenades aboard gondolas in the age-old canals of Venice... Florentine art and architecture that sing of life in the Renaissance, and a stroll in the garden where opera was born... a glass of Chianti in a sidewalk café in hilltop Siena... the haunting ruins of Imperial Rome... hand-painted frescoes whose eloquence is most poignantly experienced in the Sistine Chapel, after the day’s crowds depart...

As always, Tauck does it right. From the hotels, tour director and various excursions. Information regarding each area by the tour director is right on. I like the idea of getting into a site early before the crowds appear. Once you travel with Tauck, there is no going back to any other tour company!!!!
Most Memorable Moment:
That's a difficult one as there were so many memorable moments. I guess the one to stand out is visiting the Sistine Chapel in the evening without all the crowds. As stated above getting into a site before the general population is a very big plus.
We took the Italian Lakes, Venice, Florence, and Rome tour. It was our first tour with Tauck and we were very impressed by the fantastic accommodations, food, excursions, and guide. The hotels were as good as any 5 star hotels in the U.S. The food was absolutely fantastic and it was very nice to skip the 3 hour queues for places like St. Peter's.
Most Memorable Moment:
The Sistine Chapel after hours tour was a highlight. We were allowed to spend over a half hour wandering around with only 2 other tours. Usually you are herded through with a mob of people. They even let us take photos. We also loved exploring Venice on our own. Tauck allows ample time for exploration, which is very nice indeed.
