Every detail was so well organized, from the seamless travel logistics to the carefully selected sight-seeing spots. Our Canadian guide was amazing and went above and beyond to ensure our trip was fun and stress free. We explored stunning cities, shared unforgettable moments with great people, and created memories that will last a lifetime.
I would highly recommend Approach Tours. The company ensures all aspects of the tour are thought of. The level of service and care from our Canadian Guru who travelled with us was delightful. We didn’t have to do anything but enjoy.
This was our first group tour and it exceeded our expectations. Everything is taken care of so you just have to enjoy the trip. From getting you to and from the airport, flights, accommodations, food and tipping is taken care of. Would highly recommend Approach Tours.
This was a fantastic all-inclusive experience. Approach took care of all the details, and provided fantastic guides who were thoughtful and very helpful. I would highly recommend Approach for your next hassle free trip!
Well worth the price. Approach researches all the activities very well, and the food and hotels were impressive. Our favourite part was our Canadian Group Guru. She was so thoughtful and skilled.
It was a trip of a lifetime. Everything was planned perfectly and went off without a hitch. Our Canadian Guru was a complete pleasure to be with. Would recommend this company to anyone looking to travel.
This was our first trip with Approach after hearing rave reviews. We were not disappointed! Our trip was to Sicily and Southern Italy. Our guides were simply amazing… knowledgeable, with 100% commitment to the group. All details are looked after: travel, food and accommodations, at top notch quality.
That was one reason I chose them. Our group guru met us at Toronto airport and was with us the entire trip and was wonderful. A few days before the trip, I received an awesome welcome package, a power adapter, luggage tags and strap, very nice MEC daypack, and a nice journal with everyone’s names, itinerary, etc. I would recommend Approach, especially if you’re new to traveling.
Approach Tours take care of everything: your flights, health insurance, food, tips, accommodation, entrance fees, etc. There is nothing to do but enjoy yourself. The trip exceeded all of my expectations. There wasn’t a single issue that I experienced.
