Question: Good/Budget Italy Vacation Packages?
Can anyone suggest where online I can find good/budget vacation packages to Italy. I am looking to go with my girlfriend sometime in September and I would like to have airfare, hotel, and local transportation taken care of. Or at least hotel and airfare. However, I do not want to do any guided tours or group things. I would like to do things on our own. Would like to visit 3 different cities within a 10-14 day period, e.g. Florence, Rome, Venice. Most of the things I found online consist of guided or group tours. Also, if your suggesting based on a personal experience, details of your trip would be nice. Thanks.

Try Untours (www.untours.com)! They’re perfect for independent travelers who just want the basics. They set you up with airfare, then give you a rail pass or car rental, and apartment. You really get to know an area and live like an “untourist.”
I’m looking at the brochure now and they have the following regions in Italy listed:Sicily, Tuscany South, Tuscany North, Umbria, Rome and Venice. You can use them to see the area you’re in, and as a base to go touring “off the beaten path.”
Also says here that there’s something called La Notte Bianca in Rome in September when museums, shops and restaurants stay open all night! And something called Regata Storica in Venice with sensational processions along the waterways.
I’m getting jealous- think I’ll go too! Happy travels!
And whatever you do, don’t miss the gelato- to die for!!!!!!!!!!

About eight o’clock on the morning of the 5th of November, 1900, those of the passengers and crew of the American liner _St. Louis_ who happened, whether from causes of duty or of their own pleasure, to be on deck, had a very strange–in fact a quite unprecedented experience.

Question: Golf Travel?
A friend told me about a luxury golf destination club he had heard of called The Markers Club. I have checked out their website and it sounds like a cool deal but I have a couple of questions before I make any decisions.
Has anyone here had any experience with this company or one like it? Please tell me any other companies you might know like this that give a better deal.
I figured a forum would be a good place to look for a few answers. Anything you could give me would help. Thanks!

Looking for people who have cruised multiple lines to answer the question is a luxury line like regent worth the premium over a regular line such as celebrity?

Answer by MomSezNo
Only you can decide that. A great place to read what past passengers think about Regent and any other cruise line is CruiseCritic.com. Click on “Boards” at the top of the page, then go to “Member Reviews” then find your ship. You may also want to click on “Regent Cruises”. If you click on “Cruise Styles” at the top of the home page, you’ll find a description of the demographic for the different lines and ships. This info may help you make up your mind.
Celebrity is a great line, overall, BTW.
