End of content - What is the climate like?
Start of content
During the summer months, the weather in Italy is warm, with highs during the day at 90°F (32.2°C), and around 60°F (15.5°C), at night. You can expect sunshine and very little rainfall. Italy, like several other European countries, has federally mandated regulations designed to conserve electricity consumption. The regulations impose seasonal restrictions on heating and cooling systems. This means that all lodgings, from 5-star deluxe hotels to modest farmhouses, are subject to strict energy restrictions. These businesses may only switch their air systems from hot to cold (or from cold to hot) when the government mandate allows them. If you are sensitive to cold weather, we advise that you bring sweaters in spring and fall in case there is a short cold spell and the property management can't turn the heating on. Likewise, air conditioning is typically not available in April or October, although there can be hot spells in those months. These circumstances are normally not a significant challenge for our Guests; however, we wanted you to be aware of the restrictions and the potential impact to your comfort.
End of content - How strenuous are the activities?
Start of content
This is an active tour with a lot of walking and physical activity. In Rome and Venice, the cobblestone streets and bridges can be challenging, especially in the summer. The full range of activities offered requires stamina in order to get the most of your vacation.
End of content - What ages are appropriate for this adventure?
Start of content
While we welcome children ages 5 and up at the time of travel to discover the stories of the world with us, we recommend that children be at least 6 years old at the time of travel on our Italy trip. This is based on several factors, such as flight time and jet lag, time zone differences in the destination, duration of the vacation, extended hours of daily activity programming and amount of physical activity (e.g., walking) involved. Because each child is different, call a Vacationista at (800) 543-0865 to discuss whether this is the right trip for your little ones.
End of content - What types of meals are served on this Adventures by Disney Trip?
Start of content
Typically, breakfast is served in family style and offers a variety of dishes. Dinners and lunches usually include fish or meat and pasta or rice entrees, with vegetables, salad, fruit and dessert. Some included meals on this trip are served family style while others offer a limited-choice menu. Given the nature of group travel, we regret that á la carte menu choices may not always be available. Child-friendly choices are available for most meals. Menu items are subject to change due to the availability and seasonality of foods. If you have any questions or concerns about dining at any time during your vacation, your Adventure Guides will be happy to assist you.

End of content
We will make every reasonable effort to operate the vacations as advertised; however, we reserve the right to curtail or modify the itinerary, or to substitute activities, hotels, meals or transportation as we deem necessary. We further reserve the right to reduce the number of Adventure Guides to one, and to modify other services to accommodate a smaller group, if a minimum number of Guests is not reached. Similarly, we may marginally exceed the stated group maximum size if necessary to accommodate a family. Please also note that during certain holidays and peak periods, some activities may be disrupted or unavailable. None of these modifications or changes shall affect the land package price. We reserve the right to cancel a trip at any time prior to its commencement for any reason, such as if there are too few Guests, or if the quality of the trip or the safety of the Guests would, in our opinion, be compromised, such as may result from unforeseen circumstances (acts of God) or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control. If we cancel your trip prior to its commencement because there are too few Guests: (i) we will attempt to re-book you on another departure of the same itinerary, subject to availability, and we will bear any reasonable airline re-booking charges; however, if we are unable to rebook you, we will issue a full refund of your land package price and Plan (unless you have filed a claim); and (ii) if you booked airfare through us, we will issue a full refund of your airfare; and (iii) if you did not book airfare through us, we will reimburse you for your reasonable out-of-pocket (subject to proof) airline cancellation charges or, in the case of bookings using frequent flier miles, a reasonable cancellation service fee, provided you have exercised best efforts to mitigate such charges/fees; and (iv) the aforesaid payments and/or rebooking by us shall constitute a full settlement. - Is travel insurance available?
