Overview
The tour begins in Venice, where you will visit the city on foot and by boat, enjoy a gondola ride and head out into the lagoon to tour the other islands.
Cross the country to Cinque Terre by 1st class train and stay in the village of Monterosso. From here you can hike the trails between the picturesque fishing villages or take a more leisurely route by ferry.
One of our English-speaking drivers will take you down to Florence, stopping along the way in northern Tuscany to visit Pisa and Lucca. In Florence, tour the city, see Michelangelo's famous David and enjoy peaceful evenings on the banks of the Arno, then spend a day in the Chianti region of Tuscany.
Catch a fast-train down to Rome where you will tour the Italian capital by night, discover the secrets of the Vatican and the world of the ancient Roman emperors.
From the heart of the Roman Empire, to the daily life of Pompeii, forever frozen in time for us to discover, then on to the natural beauty of the Amalfi Coast, where you will enjoy private tours of the coastal towns and the island of Capri.
This tour is completely private and can be adapted in any way to ensure you have your dream holiday, so should you wish to spend longer in Tuscany, or upgrade to 5-star accommodation throughout, we will be happy to assist you.
