A visit to any foreign land requires stepping out of your comfort zone, which is precisely why you need expert guidance as you plan your travel out, especially when running for more off-the-beaten-path destinations. A custom Italian tour is a great way to get the best scoop and inside knowledge on the best times as well as non-conventional places to visit in Italy. Many travelers choose to either book pre-planned tour packages or do the planning on their own, effectively limiting their options to typical itineraries every other tourist is taking. With a custom tour, you get to enjoy benefits and advantages unique to tailor-made holidays. What are these benefits? Read on to see the kinds of advantages you don’t want to miss out on:
You get to visit off the beaten path locations and destinations that are rarely if at all, included in pre-packaged tour itineraries. Most tour packages to Italy are focused mainly on famous cities like Rome, Venice, and Florence. While these places are definite must-sees, you also want to explore beyond what every other tourist to the country has experienced. Custom tours also come in handy for people who might have the desire to reconnect with or perhaps find distant family and relatives residing in smaller Italian towns, which may not typically be included in cookie cutter tour packages. Some may want the peace of lesser-known cities or merely want a unique travel experience that is not your typical Rome-Venice-Florence tour.
Custom tours also allow you more freedom to have things your way. This is especially true when it comes to tour schedules. Tour packages do give you blocks of free time, which you can use to do as you please. However, these tours limit customization options you can request. Most packages are geared towards maximizing your time in certain cities, so you can get more value for money. While this is for your benefit, it also often means packed itineraries where you barely have a few hours or minutes to explore an entire town. This is why may tour-goers usually feel too rushed actually to enjoy the places they are visiting. In a custom tour, you can visit destinations at a far more leisurely pace and enjoy activities without being too strapped for time.
Finally, a custom tour offers you all the perks of a Do-It-Yourself tour without the hassle and cost—it provides the best of both DIY and tour travelling, in that you get tour-prices for an utterly customizable itinerary.
