Rome

All roads lead to Rome—and they’re likely to be clogged with Vespa scooters darting between cars at perilous speeds. But it’s worth braving the traffic to explore this historic and always exciting city, from which world-changing political, religious, and cultural empires have spread. Without leaving town, you can travel across centuries, walking in the footsteps of gladiators at the ancient Colosseum, marveling at the largest church in christendom at the Vatican, and catching glimpses of glamour straight out of Fellini’s La Dolce Vita at the fashionable shops on Via Condotti.

• Take in some fresh air at the Villa Borghese gardens, which are landscaped in the English style and make up the third largest park in the city at 148 acres.
• Vatican Museums: One of the largest museums in the world with 54 galleries, you’ll see works collected by the Popes throughout the years including the famous Sistine Chapel and the Stanze di Raffaello.
• Feel just like Audrey Herpburn running down the Spanish Steps, since the actress made them famous in America with her 1953 film Roman Holiday.

Florence

Tuscany is known for its undulating hills, sprawling vineyards, and sun-kissed villas. The largest city in the region, Florence, is also one of Italy’s most beautiful. Stroll across the Ponte Vecchio, admire David in the Galleria dell’Accademia, and wind down with a bottle of vino on the steps of the Piazzale Michelangelo—the best spot to watch the sun set over the Arno River.

• Cooking class: Available only to those departing in April and May, 2017
• Palazzo Pitti: Often referred to as the Pitti Palace by English speakers, the impressive structure was bought by the Medici family and transformed into the main residence of the the Grand Duchy of Tuscany in the 16th century.
