SMALL GUIDED VACATIONS: EUROPE AWAITS!

Italy’s magnificent trio! Sorrento’s air has the heady scent of citrus, and you’ll go to artisanal food shops with a master. A full day with your driver takes you to the Amalfi Coast, village by village, and in Capri you’ll explore the island and her grottoes. Nearby is Pompeii, captured forever, as it was in 79 AD.

Your Roman guide will transport you with stories from the Spanish Steps to the Trevi Fountain. Skip the lines at the Vatican and discover renowned treasures, ending at Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel. You’ll have a food tour by sunset, see the Colosseum with priority access, and visit the pulse of Ancient Rome, the Forum.

In Florence, a personal shopper leads you on an Artisan Shopping Walk, taking you to mosaic, sculpture, hand-crafted shoe, and Florentine paper workshops. No lines at the Accademia Gallery for Renaissance masterpieces, including Michelangelo’s iconic David. The lush hills of Tuscany are nearby, and you’ll visit three medieval villages, Chianti’s finest, and dine at a Tuscan estate.

"Family Chauffeur Tour in Ireland"

Paula M.

Arizona

My clients have been having a great time in Ireland. Jackie and John just turned 60, and George proposed to his girlfriend Grace at the Cliffs of Moher.It's been a big celebration tour! Their driver has been fantastic and deserves a special shout out. I'll have the full post trip debrief for you in the coming weeks, but just wanted to let you know the clients are happy.

"Amazing Group tour in Ireland"

Patricia Hand

Florida

Another outstanding experience! Thank you, Michaela and Authentic Vacations. Our group of 11 had an amazing time exploring the beauty of the Emerald Isle! The accommodations were stellar properties and perfectly located in the middle of each destination. Unique experiences awaited us everywhere and I was thrilled to be able to be on this special tour.

"Australia Family Visit"

Fran L.

NY

The Indian pacific train ride from Sidney to Atlanta a Dream come true. The train is exquisite. The meals are fabulous and the staff wonderful. Adelaide arrangements and tours were excellent. Only suggestion: try to find another hotel away from the bars and nightspots. I would highly recommend Authentic vacations to anyone.  Thank you Joleen.

"Bucket List trip to Scotland"

Anne Marie N.

South Carolina

A trip of a lifetime! Had some very specific wants for our time in Scotland and Jennifer with Authentic Vacations was able to piece it together wonderfully. We had high expectations going into the trip and they were far exceeded.

"Ireland Vacation"

Bruce and Cheryl F.

California

The 14-night Ireland vacation was pretty amazing. While it included a lot of driving and staying in nine different hotels, I don't think there is any other way to see as much of the country as we did. Every hotel check-in and scheduled event went smoothly with no glitches or delays. Ireland is such a beautiful place with an incredibly rich history. Visible everywhere you go are ruins of ancient fortresses, each telling an amazing story of the founders and conquerors who shaped this country. People in Ireland are proud, warm, friendly and happy. We always felt safe and welcome. Thank you, Amber and Authentic Vacations!

"Iceland Vacation"

Jessica K.

Orlando

Iceland is an amazing place and we had an amazing time. We enjoyed every minute of our adventure.  Thank you Jorie and Authentic Vacations.

"Family Vacation to Scotland"

Sharon L.

Utah

We had a really amazing time, obviously 12 days just isn't enough to see everything in Scotland. Ellie with Authentic Vacations planned a Lovley trip, and we will be going through her again.

"Trip of a lifetime in Scotland"

Beverly P.

Florida

We had a trip of a lifetime in Scotland, thanks to Joleen, Destination Expert for Authentic Vacations. Words cannot express how exciting and memorable this trip was. It was a journey of beautiful sights and exceptional adventures. It was all choregraphed perfectly with Joleen's assistance and direction. The timing of our stays and adventures worked out perfectly.

The hotels were perfect and amazing in every way.  I could go on and on about the experiences, adventures and breathtaking countryside, but it would turn into a novel by the time I was done.

All that being said, a round of applause to Joleen and Authentic Vacations for making this trip happen for us. It truly was a trip of a lifetime! Congratulations on a job well done!! She truly cared about planning our trip and making all the arrangements for a special and memorable travel experience. Joleen's time and patience in answering all my questions and directing us along the way was invaluable. I really felt how invested she was in our trip, and it made all the difference. Her knowledge and guidance fine-tuned our trip to a flawless experience. We can't thank her enough for all the hard work, time and effort she put into making this happen for us. We will never forget it and truly owe her a debt of gratitude for all the support she and your team put into this to make it an unforgettable trip. Thank so very much!!
