Hi Stefania! Sorry to take so long to write back. It has been crazy trying to get back into the swing of things at work after that trip. Italy was amazing!! We absolutely loved it! As for feedback on the trip, we really don't have anything that was negative. We loved everything that was planned! We especially loved how you planned the sites that we went and how the pattern flowed (not sure if you did it on purpose but we think so). Also, thank you for being very accessible to us during the whole planning of the trip. You helped put us at ease and it was very reassuring that we chose the right company. That is all that I can given you that might be considered constructive. The rest I could say would just be compliments on everything else. If I can think of anything else that I think is useful I will definitely email you. Hope all is well, Jane P.S. - Does your company only provide trips for Italy or other countries as well, just wondering for the future :)
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our walk in Piemonte through the Barolo area arranged by UTracks. First off, the response we received from UTracks for any question we had was almost immediate. The hotels/agriturismos chosen were excellent. Each was clean and comfy with great breakfasts (and dinners). Nearly all had swimming pools. Some of our rooms had outstanding views of the Alps or local countryside. Most of the time is spent walking through vineyards or orchards, very little on paved roads. One of the best features is the app provided. You can't get far off track before the app alerts you (if used correctly). I would encourage anyone on this walk to work with the app until it is completely understood. Once you understand it you appreciate how helpful it is. We met lovely people along the way including the hoteliers (who were just wonderful). The baggage service was seamless. All in all a well organized journey. UTracks exceeded our expectations. We are already sifting through UTracks' website for ideas for our next walk.
This trip was a thoroughly enjoyable experience in all respects. It has a well thought-out and interesting itinerary, good hotels and seamless travel arrangements. The tour gives sufficient time to explore many of Sicily’s architectural and cultural wonders, as well as spending several hours on Mt Etna and walking in the Zingaro Nature Reserve. Our guide Francesco was outstanding – very friendly, informative and helpful. At some of the sites we had local guides who were also very good. Our enjoyment of the trip was greatly enhanced by our fellow travellers who gelled extremely well as a group and were excellent company throughout the trip.
