VENICE, FLORENCE AND ROME
Start your tour in Venice, the city with the world's
most artistic masterpieces per square kilometer.
Lose yourself in the narrow alleyways and
marvel at the unique architecture and art. Board
a gondola for a romantic serenade through
the maze of canals. Visit Murano Island and
learn the art of glass blowing, and watch the
many artisans creating state-of-the-art carnival
masks. Next is the cradle of the Renaissance,
Florence. Get close to hundreds of masterpieces
from Giotto, Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci to
name a few, spanning the breadth of art history
- held in over 100 rooms at the Uffizi Gallery.
Visit the iconic pink, white and green marble
Duomo and its beautiful frescoes depicting the
Last Judgment. Then, take a well earned rest
and taste the many award-winning wines of
the Chianti region in one of the many enoteca
(local winery shops). Next is the Eternal city,
Rome. Discover classical statues, Roman ruins
and breathtaking baroque churches. Rome is
an open air museum; walk around its centre,
and come across masterpieces by the Italian
greats - sculptures by Michelangelo, frescoes
by Raphael and fountains by Bernini. Visit the
Vatican and hear the secrets of the holiest place
in Christendom. Relive the ancient gladiator
battles in the Colosseum and remember not
to leave without tossing a coin or two into the
