We worked with Corey Bell of Venture Ashore in arranging 5 different tours for my group of 8 family members while on vacation in Rome and during our 7 night cruise in the Mediterranean. Corey was fantastic in helping us select and arrange for customized tours for our group. Corey was very responsive during our communications, we appreciated the inclusion of these tours in our overall itinerary, and the timely updates prior to our actual tours. Plus, we were very happy with the over all quality of each and every tour guide that was assigned to us. The overall process was very efficient and certainly helped me as leader keep track of all our activities, all in one place vs. booking them separately. And, we found these private group tours to be of good value compared to on-board tour options. Tom
