Ciao Gloria,
Sorry it has taken us a while to respond, but gosh what a trip. Italy is well Italy, so old, so much history and so full of Italians who’s zest for life is contagious.
It really was a wonderful ways to spend 10 days after the Grand Silverseas cruise, a beautiful black Mercedes sedan, our driver was delightful, very helpful and with local knowledge we saw so much more and experienced the local food, mixed with the people and saw off the beaten track, had we been on our on our own our experience would have been quite different, and whilst I love the Italians, I would hate to drive myself there, they think they are all on a race track.
Kindest regards

Michael & Ros
