Jim and I are talking about touring Italy next year on either a totally land tour or a mix of a cruise and land. Because there is so much to see in Italy with so much history attached to it, we are actually thinking of taking an escorted tour. Plus, I wouldn't mind letting someone else do the planning, the driving, and carry the luggage for a change! Too bad RSSC doesn't offer land cruises!

Do any of you have experience with escorted tour companies or know anything about the good ones?? We'd like a company that stays at the nicer hotels, and spends more than one night in each location.

Thanks!
