Overall are experience was good. We really enjoyed Venice then Florence then Rome. The scheduled rail transportation was easy and convenient with our hotels closely located in Venice and Florence. We did not experience any issues with airfare either. Just note airfare will be overnight. If we were to offer any constructive criticism it would be our last hotel location in Rome (hotel Pineta Place). It was 30-45 minutes ( not including traffic) outside of central Rome rail station by Taxi ($40-$50 each way cost) where the hop off hop on city bus tours are located and 10 minutes away by vehicle to Bus lines (taxi $10). The hotel offered transportation to the bus lines but their schedule was limited and did not work around our tour times (early morning). We also learned airport taxi was to be another $100 one way. We ended up not staying at the outside hotel the last night in Rome because it cost too much to get back-and-forth with taxis to downtown and airport. The hotel was nice it was just the location. We actually scheduled another hotel downtown for our last night. I researched other central hotel locations and many were cheaper than where Pineta hotel was located outside of the city. Other than that location issue, the other city hotels were convenient, Although, we wish that us would’ve actually been in actual Venice island and not Mestre (outside Venice) to save on transportation costs. Florence location was perfect. Other city hotel locations locations were fine and not as big of an issue, when compared to Rome.

Hotels were far from city center/popular spots so it made it a hassle to travel between the hotel and attractions. We had one really nice hotel, but the other 2 hotels were closer to 3stars than 4star places. Our city walking tours were scheduled for our last day in the city which defeated the purpose.

Valued Opinion is asking govt id. and personal documents with eye scanning demographic data to share with them after 1 year I created account and as I urged that I cannot share this crucial data and it can easily be misused by a third party out of my country ,they blocked my account on which I had 1700 points left .

My suggestion to all that please keep in distance from this fraud survey entity who asks your personal national ids to continue survey account only.
