wow, you guys are so lucky that you are still anticipating this trip! i went on the simply italy tour in august (the 22 to september 5). it was fantastic. never a dull moment. you will all thoroughly love this country. simply perfect italy is what it should be called! we had Katia as our tour guide. if you get her, she is fantastic! let me know if she plays funky bahai as the "bus song". enjoy guys!
