5.00Kimberly has been great to work with while helping us plan part of our Rome trip. She’s been quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and clearly knows what she’s doing. We booked the Ponza day trip and it looks like an awesome experience. A boat day with lunch and swimming stops sounded like a great break from the city and something a little different from the usual tours. We also appreciated that they can accommodate gluten-free meals, which made it an easy choice for us. So far everything has been smooth and straightforward, and based on our experience planning with Kimberly, I’d definitely recommend Open Up Italy.
