Days 1–2: Venice
After arriving in Venice on Day 1, you’ll be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel on the Grand Canal. The rest of Day 1 is yours to explore on your own until that evening’s welcome dinner. The trip begins in earnest the next morning with a city sightseeing tour.
- Stops on the itinerary include Saint Mark’s Square, where you’ll see the city’s elaborate golden basilica and the gothic Doge’s Palace (one of Venice’s most famous landmarks), as well as the romantic Bridge of Sighs.
- Visit a glassblowing factory to watch craftsmen create delicate, colorful Venetian glass the old-fashioned way.
- Optional tour: Take a gondola ride along the canal for an additional cost.
Days 3–4: Florence
Next up is Tuscany, central Italy’s hilly, vineyard-rich region. On your way to Florence, you’ll stop in Ferrara to stroll along the banks of the Po River and visit Pisa to snap the obligatory photo of the Leaning Tower. Once you reach Florence, you’ll get the evening off before resuming the sightseeing on Day 4. Here are some highlights:
- Birthplace of the Renaissance: Florence is rife with centuries-old sites, and its Historic Center was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1982.
- Duomo: You’ll start the day gazing at the majestic Duomo—Florence’s iconic cathedral—and its adjacent buildings, Giotto’s Bell Tower and the Baptistery for which Lorenzo Ghiberti created his bronze Gates of Paradise doors.
- Michelangelo’s David stands in all his glory at the Galleria dell’Accademia, one of the city’s numerous art museums.
- Enjoy the view: The tour ends at the Piazzale Michelangelo, which offers one of Florence’s best overlooks.
Days 5–8: Rome
Before Rome, where you’ll spend the last leg of the journey, the group pays a visit to Assisi, the hometown of Saint Francis and the site of a basilica named in his honor. Then you’ll continue to the Eternal City to explore ancient ruins, see priceless art, and tap into its vibrant culture.
- Full-day sightseeing tour: Highlights on Day 6 include the Vatican—home to the Sistine Chapel and the enormous St. Peter’s Basilica—and ancient Roman sites such as the Colosseum and the Forum.
- A free day in Rome: You’ll get the following day off to go shopping, visit museums, or relax at a sidewalk cafe with some wine and/or gelato.
- Arrivederci!: After a farewell dinner on the evening of Day 7, you’ll leave for the airport on the morning of Day 8 to catch your return flight to the United States.
