Is This Trip Right for You?

This program is active. Walking is done over uneven surfaces, stairs, steps and significant slopes. Expect most of the sightseeing to require three to four hours of walking as well as a considerable time standing. Many historical cities have specific driving regulations, with set drop off and pick up points, that result in extra walking to and from the sights. The pace is fast as many sites are included. This is an Off Season program.
