Itinerary

Comme une tranche de tiramisu décadent, le dessert italien classique à base de café et de cacao, cette visite satisfaisante de l'Italie est remplie de ses villes les plus douces pour des vacances riches et enrichissantes. Comment faire mieux que l'histoire, les merveilles et le charisme de Rome ? Avec l'art de classe mondiale de Florence, le romantisme séduisant de Venise, la sérénité tranquille d'Assise, la fascination historique de Pompéi et le pur plaisir de Capri. Le plaisir rassasiant se poursuit lorsque vous pénétrez dans les collines toscanes couvertes de vignes, célèbres pour leur vin Chianti, et que vous traversez rapidement la baie de Naples scintillante jusqu'à la ville de Sorrente, parfumée aux agrumes et réputée pour sa liqueur Limoncello, produite localement. Vous aurez l'occasion de prendre des photos créatives à la tour penchée de Pise et de dévorer d'autres architectures magnifiques et une cuisine artistique tout au long de ce tour d'Italie à plusieurs niveaux.

TOUR HIGHLIGHT
HISTORIC SPOTS Rome is a vibrant city with a strong character and overflowing with art, culture, history, gastronomy, monuments, fascinating stories, and much more. Built on 7 hills and considered to be the “Cradle of Western Civilisation”, it is the city with the most churches and fountains in the world. When you stand in the heart of Ancient Rome, discovering stories about the Roman Empire whilst admiring the Colosseum and Roman Forum, it becomes easy to understand the origins of the saying “All roads lead to Rome”.

TOUR HIGHLIGHT
One of Italy’s most recognized regions, Tuscany has so much to offer. It has an artistic and cultural heritage that is difficult to surpass. Birthplace to pioneers such as Dante, Gallileo, Giotto, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, to name just a few; and home to historic towns and cities that flourished under important families such as the Medici. Today enjoy views of the Tuscan countryside, as you drive by rolling green hills, lush vineyards, towering Cypress trees and olive groves.

81 mi / 130 km

LOCAL FAVORITE
LOCAL TASTES After seeing some of the world’s most magnificent architecture and Rennaissance masterpieces in Florence, your day gets even sweeter with a mouth-watering masterpiece in the birthplace of Italian gelato. We can thank the actual Renaissance man - designer and architect Bernardo Buontalenti - who invented gelato in 16th-century Florence. Created with less fat and less air than commercial ice cream, gelato is a dense, creamy, frozen confection served in a multitude of tastes. Not an easy decision in how you’ll fill your cup or cone!

TOUR HIGHLIGHT
HISTORIC SPOT Locals simply call Piazza San Marco “la piazza.” As paired with the smaller Piazzetta, it forms the social, religious, and political hub of Venice, which Napoleon called “the drawing room of Europe.” St. Mark’s Basilica dominates the square, offering visitors a spectacular view of the great arches, marble embellishments, and the Romanesque carvings of its façade. Also gracing the square is Doge’s Palace – a masterpiece of Venetian Gothic architecture. The enclosed Bridge of Sighs, connecting the palace with the prison, is named for the prisoners breathing in their last view of the Rio di Palazzo on their walk to the prison’s interrogation rooms.

This once thriving and sophisticated Roman city was consumed by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., with its residents and structures buried beneath inescapable ash and stone.
