“The trip that the Bellarome Travel team put together for my Mary and I to Italy and Greece was unbelievable! From the planning and itinerary creation to the trip itself, we couldn’t be happier. Our accommodations were in great locations and the included breakfasts were just what we needed to start our days. All our in-country travel and transportation — from planes, trains, ferries, water taxis and private drivers — were great. It was so nice to have a person waiting for us upon arrival with our name on a sign board. Our guides and hosts were amazingly knowledgeable and personable. The team checked in with us every afternoon to let us know the details for the following day and were readily available if we had questions. We feel you had our best interest in mind, provided us with good value and were always only a call away. We would highly recommend Bellarome — we already sent your contact information to two people today — and we will be using you again in the future.”

“I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how incredibly wonderful our trip turned out. If — no — when we return to Italy or Sicily we will not hesitate to book with Bellarome again. The entire trip was amazing, the destinations and the accommodations were superb! My husband was amazed by the beauty of each city we visited. The drivers were punctual, very helpful and friendly, and knowledgeable about each city. We loved each and every tour guide and we made memories with all of them. I even met two nonnas on my Great grandfather’s street and I sang them an old Italian song my Grandmother taught me. They laughed and said ‘you are Familia!’ — I cried. Thank you sincerely, Rene and Randy Picard.”

“Our travellers have returned from their holiday in Italy and have had an absolutely wonderful time, enjoying every moment of their stay. This is very much down to yourselves and I appreciate all the thinking, planning and execution that have enabled this to be such a great success. Knowing that your company is behind the plan — especially the safe and secure transport arrangements — is Super. Please convey my appreciation to all members of the team involved in putting the holiday together. A really big personal thank you. Freddy Fuller”

“I had a pretty crazy re-entry week and have not had a chance to write — but I had to thank you for our incredible Greek vacation. It was truly memorable and equally as wonderful as our previous trip with Bellarome, which was a very hard act to follow. Our accommodations were beautiful and the staff at every property was exceptional. The sailing cruise was incredible, the cooking experience was meaningful and touching, and every excursion was wonderfully executed. One of our group, who tends to want to go home before the trip is over, expressed the desire to remain and to come back to Greece for another trip! We all felt the same way. Many thanks for a trip we will never forget. Warm regards, Amy Rothberg”

“It was a wonderful trip!! All of the guides were terrific — SO knowledgeable and personable. Our accommodations were excellent, the locations were fabulous and the rooms large and very comfortable. The tours were exactly what we wanted and there was just the right amount of driving and walking. Thank you so much for your patience and very good work in putting this trip together for us. We were not an easy group — and we really appreciate how kind, responsive and professional you were about it all. We will certainly recommend you to others. All the best, Gene”

“Michael and I wanted to share a sincere thank you to you and your entire team. From the very beginning, you were always available to answer any questions and were patient with our changes. Your knowledge and guidance throughout the planning process made everything so easy. All of our tours were absolutely perfect and the trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our guides were wonderful — they made every destination come alive. If we could give more than five stars we would! We have been telling everyone how great our trip was and how perfectly it was planned. Thank you for helping us create memories we will always cherish. Taylor & Michael Reidy”

Posted on Melissa GebbiaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sicily is a spectacular island. It has everything - seaside to city, hiking, history, food, and we enjoyed it all because we had the best guides, drivers, and planners. Everyday of this trip was better than the day before thanks to Francesca and Bellarome Travel!Posted on Maxine AndaryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely a trip of our lifetime. Bellarome Travel prepared us a customized trip to Rome and Sicily. I cannot emphasize enough how professional, helpful and knowledgeable the staff was throughout the entire process-a special thank you to Frederica. Will definitely use for all future travel.Posted on Kevin MortesenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It has taken a while...too long...to post this review of Bellarome travel and their amazing team. The delay isn't because there was anything wrong, it's because everything was so PERFECTLY right that I struggled to keep it short and to the point. From the moment we contacted Bellarome and spoke with Antonia to the moment the final car dropped us at the airport, everything ran lock clockwork. And the understanding and care they put into our itinerary made it seem like we'd worked with them for years (this was the first, but definitely not the last, experience with Bellarome.) Antonia and the entire team are the definition of bespoke service. Everything was personal. The trip, which included a few days in Rome and three amazing stops in Sicily, could not have been better planned. And the communication during the trip was exceptional. Each day was preceded by a quick message detailing the specifics of who, where and when. And, on the rare occasion we wanted to change something (happened once, primarily due to a little rain) it was adjusted immediately and without question. Each driver, guide and back office team member was aware, considerate, knowledgeable, kind...too many superlatives to list. We cannot recommend Bellarome Travel more wholeheartedly. Can't wait to work with them again. Thank you!!!!Posted on Jessica KarleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Unforgettable! Planning and travel went very smoothly. Accommodations and guides were amazing. Very responsive to any questions we had. Definitely will use this service again!Posted on Mytch JeffreyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently came home from a Sicily/Malta Bellarome private tour. Definately 5 stars for service, communication and itinerary. Loved the 24/7 WhatsApp support. They confirmed each day's itinerary via WhatsApp which was great. Always on time, each day's driver and guide were 1st class and we were able to vary the itinerary to suit our wishes. Truly 5 star. We experienced 2 minor issues during the trip and Bellarome fixed both issues - one of which was on a Sunday afternoon. Great service. I could not rate them higher and would definately recommend them if travelling in Italy and Malta (which was beautiful). PS. We had used another private tour company in Italy previously and Bellarome were far better in terms of luxury, service, communications and overall support.Posted on Chuck LiddyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great Scandinavia trip organized by Bellarome. A few minor glitches related to pickups, but they were quickly resolved. Informative personal guides and tours that were tailored to our interests and budget.Posted on Robynne ScottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently booked our London trip through Bellarome Travel, and overall it was a wonderful experience. Antonia and Eliana were professional, responsive, and attentive throughout the planning process. Our accommodations were perfect; comfortable, clean, and very convenient to public transportation. We loved the food tour with Chef Riki, as well as exploring the beautiful Chilterns and Oxford with Moe. Both The Murder Express and The Mousetrap were fantastic additions to our itinerary. Our only concerns were that the first two tours with Olga involved quite a bit of walking and didn’t allow time for leisurely shopping had I known, I would have prepared differently (I wore boots!). The Rock & Roll tour focused mainly on Beatles history, and the Camden Market tasting included just one vendor. Even so, Bellarome delivered an enjoyable and memorable trip overall. Thank you, Antonia, Eliana and teamPosted on Leanne FarinellaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bellarome- I honestly cannot say enough great things about this agency and the trip they curated for my mother and me to Sicily. I knew from the first call and conversations with Antonia this was going to be an amazing trip, but the trip experience was even better than we could have imagined. When they say VIP, they MEAN VIP. Private transfers in luxury vehicles that take the stress of Sicilian driving off our shoulders. Amazing tour guides who are locals in the towns we visited that tailored the excursions to our preferences. Clean, safe, and centrally located hotels. If any issues arose during the trip, the agency took care of it right away. I most definitely will be booking future trips with Bellarome, they have spoiled me and reminded me why I love to travel!Posted on Gregory OldaniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Each detail of our trip was planned and executed perfectly throughout our visit. The transport, the guides and the lodging was well chosen and of high quality. All of us agreed that this was the perfect way to enjoy Sicily.Load more
