Overview
During your tour with us, you can choose to have an intensive program of tours and activities or more free time to explore on your own. We offer a wide range of private and small group tours, food and wine tastings, cooking classes, and other typical local experiences in each city. Please ask us to find out more about what is on offer in each city. All our itineraries are flexible, so if you want to add some more days or change the route, we will be happy to meet your requests.
Your tour will begin upon your arrival in Venice, where our representative will be waiting to transfer you to your hotel in the city center. You will stay here for the next two nights. Venice has so much to offer, from romantic gondola rides to island tours, nature visits, wine tastings, and more, which will allow you to experience this incredible water city.
From Venice, you will take the high-speed train to the beautiful city of Florence. Immerse yourself in the elegance of the Renaissance, whether you decide to stay in the city and trace the footsteps of the powerful Medici Family, or head out into the Tuscan countryside to the wine-producing areas of Chianti or Val d'Orcia.
Rome will take you further back in time to the world of Ancient Rome and the power of the papacy. In the heart of the Roman Empire, visit the glorious Colosseum and walk the ancient streets of the Forum. Across the river, the imposing Basilica of St. Peter's welcomes visitors to the center of the Catholic faith. Between the two wonderful monuments and squares like the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Campo de' Fiori, and endless churches filled with works by the likes of Bernini, Michelangelo, Borromini, and Rafael...
From the incredible achievements of generations past to the natural splendor of the Amalfi Coast. Here you will have private tours of Capri, the towns of the Amalfi Coast, and the ruined town of Pompeii. Your tour with us will end when our driver drops you at the airport or station in Naples for the continuation of your journey.
