We were a group of travellers to Italy from my local church in Derby Midlands Uk. Our ages
ranged from Seven to eighty-one years of age. So a pretty mixed bag of people.
We under took a journey from Rome to San Giovanni some 550 miles on a round trip. Joseph emailed me and spoke to me
on the phone prior to my trip to Rome, this was very
reassuring for me. I had his number through the
recommendation of a friend who has used his company
before. In addition to Josephs company i contacted a few
others all were competitive, but I chose Joseph because he
began to plan our travel agenda with me prior to our
holiday and was in contact via phone and email. Our
journey was planned and agreed before we left, price was
agreed and no further charges were made at the end of the
trip. Joseph even did a evening tour of Rome on our return
, with full commentary and historical data, this actually
was added to our trip for free by Joseph, he made no
charge for it.
Joseph and his fellow drivers spoke perfect english and
had great knowledge of all the country and villages we
passed through. During our 4 hour journey Joseph took no
personal calls on his phone and only communicated via
hands free. I think safety is paramount when you organise
a trip for fourteen people. On our journey we made an
agreed number of comfort breaks and non were to his profit
each stop was agreed. Prior to our arrival in San
giovanni he arranged for lunch at a local restaurant we
paid the local price of 15 euros, most other local
restaurants were charging tourist 25 euros so we got great
value. I have no hesitation in recommending Joseph at
@italydriving and we hope to return to Italy next year and
will be using his again.
Another note prebook him from the airport to your hotel,
we were overpriced by the airport taxi drivers by 40 euros
, they regularly overcharge tourist.
I would have no hesitation in travelling with him again if
you need any further information you can call me on my
cell phone uk 447968059768 or home number uk 0441332765571
Kindest Regards

I am pleased to offer comments on our trip:
Seven members of our family, including two senior citizens (80+ years old), booked a
trip to Orvieto and Assisi from Rome. We were delighted to have Carlo ( italy Driving Guide driver )as our driver.
He was extremely courteous and well-informed. He offered various insights into the places we visited and it was evident that he had a great knowledge of Italian and
Roman history. In deference to our senior citizens, he made every effort to drop us off at locations where we would not have to walk far or would be able to avoid walking uphill as much as possible. There is no doubt that we would use your
company's services if we visit Italy again and we will recommend your company to friends who travel there.

Hi Joseph
Thank you once again see you next year
below my thoughts on our trip Karan x
you might think that handling a Pilgrimage group of travellers ranging in age from 6 to 81 would be a difficult challenge for anyone , especially in a crowded city such as Rome, with the added request of a trip to the "Shrine of Padre Pio", San Giovanni Rotondo, but think again.
> Following the recommendation of a previous traveller I contacted "Italy Driving Guide" , from the first email , I was met with true professionalism and help. Joseph not only gave us an excellent price (which was lower that all quotes we received) he also organised our the visit to see Padre Pio in San Giovanni with precision, ensuring we had pre booked tickets for the visit, lunch at a beautiful local restaurant. From collection at our Hotel in Rome, "Italy Driving Guide" continued to exceeded our expectation through out the day, the journey to San Giovanni Rotondo is over four hours and Joseph ensured we drove with the upmost comfort, the journey was filled with fantastic views of Rome and Joseph and his fellow driver ensured we had both historical facts and local knowledge of the wonderful countryside we saw through out the four hour journey. After a wonderful day at the sanctuary we returned to Rome to be given a evening tour of the sites of Rome at night this along with its historical facts was all together a different experience than a day tour . The drivers were truly excellent commun icating in wonderful english and answering all our questions , engaging with the youngest traveller to our oldest pilgrim.
On leaving Rome we pre-booked them for our transfer to the airport, they transported us to the airport at the most competative price in Rome. Another bit of advice beware of Airport rank taxis always pre-book collection from airport you will save money and time.
I rarely write recommendations , maybe some would say I am very hard to please and i make no apologies for this, so here goes " Italy Driving Guide" have exceeded my expectation on all counts, Price , Service, local knowledge and customer care.
So for any journeys in or around Rome or even further afield they will deliver a number one service
Given this positive experience, my advice to Rome visitors is that, if you are spending time in Rome, especially during the high season, hiring a private tour guide is well worth the money. For our money, "Italy Driving Guide " added considerable value, enjoyment, comfort and experience to our visit to this magnificent city and beyond

Hi Joseph (Italy Driving Guide)Thank you for wonderful experience we had with you. We enjoyed our trip in Florence and Rome - Italy.
We are pleased with the bus service - it was always
prompt and reliable, and the driver was patient and helpful.
Thanks for giving us excellent assistance and professional information about Rome and Florence history and monumental arts.
My recommendation for everyone who will attempt to get in touch with Italy driving Guide is: you can rely with confidence to them cause service they render to their clientele goes beyond the normal standards requirements.
Ecellent is the tourist knowledge in terms of culture.
Thank you

Italy Driving Guide gave us the opportunity to admire italy beaties like, Rome, the vatican tour, Assisi, Florence, Amalfi coast and also took us up to Venice where we got a licenced guide.
Their expertise is so amazing and tours had a fantastic and positive impact on our time spent in Italy that we would recommend everyone and anyone to this company

CAR SERVICE: We used Italy Driving Guide 3 times:
aiirport to Rome city hotel, Hotel to Civitavecchia port, and then from port to Crown Plaza Hotel Rome Airport Hotel. They were always waiting for us at the designated time and were very professional. They also took us for a Rome by night sightseein.
I would highly recommend them and will use them again on our next trip.

We are safely home after a wonderful vacation in Italy. We greatly
appreciate the part that you played in this trip. You were a good companion
as well as guide and driver and that added to our experiences.
The trip with you through the Dolomite Mountains was terrific. I am so glad
that I had you driving instead of trying to do it on my own while navigating
and watching for the many photo opportunities.
Here are a couple of photos and others will follow in the next few days.
