How active are Journey Tours?

Our pace for sightseeing is leisurely with ample opportunity to stop and even opt out should a guest desire to do so. We walk about 45 to 90 minutes per day on our sightseeing tours on average.

What amount of leisure time is there on a Journey Tour?

Yes, Journey features a Slow Travel concept on most of our trips with most sightseeing occurring in the mornings and the afternoons at leisure.

How many guests are on a Journey Tour?

Our tours feature an average 10 to 16 guests — unlike most tour companies which feature an average of 35 to 44 guests!

What is the average Journey guest like? What kind of people travel on a Journey tour?

Journey's trips are designed to engage people of all ages and backgrounds, but the 'average' Journey guest is not average at all: they enjoy interesting excursions, learning about history and culture, and above all enjoy having fun while on tour. Experiencing foreign lands bring with it a host of amazing and sometimes challenging experiences, so a great attitude is essential for the Journey guest and the Modern Traveler!

Are guided tours worth it in Italy?

The value of a trip to Italy can be weighed in how much time is spent looking for the independently booked experience, entrance, hotel or activity versus having the Now Journey Tour Captain walk you directly to the next activity or experience — there is no comparison in how much time, energy and value exists in a Now Journey small group tour. While you can make friends on trains and through experiences, there's no better way to see and experience Italy than with the help of a Now Journey Tour Captain.

What is considered a small group tour?

We consider a small group tour is composed of 3 to 16 guests as small group communication tends to stagnate above 16 guests. Many mainstream tour operators like to promote a small group is up to 24 or 36 travelers; we do not subscribe to this for obvious reasons.

How much does a trip to Italy cost?

The average cost of a mainstream, large group 12-day tour to Italy is around $4,000 per person not including airfare, and is based on large motorcoach travel with many optionals promoted while on tour. Now Journey does not subscribe to this style of travel and features Classic and Deluxe hotel packages which vary in cost based on the number of travel days. A Now Journey 10-day tour in Classic will rund around $6,500 per person.

What is the best time to visit Italy?

Spring and Fall are often quoted as the best times to visit Italy. We believe late April, May and early June along with early September through the middle of October as the best times to visit Italy in terms of weather and crowd volumes. Summer months like June, July and August tend to have very warm temps and lots of crowds. The least expensive months to visit Italy are November through February.

How many days do I need in Italy?

We recommend around 10 days with up to 14 days on the high end.

How far in advance should I plan a trip to Italy?

Most Europeans begin booking vacations in January for late summer (August) trips — you should try and book before this time in order to find available lodging and experiences.
