This tour includes stays in Venice, Rome, Florence, and Sorrento where you’ll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in Italian culture and history, and still find time to relax with some fine Italian food and wine.
The main advantage of booking one of our multi centre Italian holidays is that we arrange everything for you, including all accommodation and transfers between destinations, so you can enjoy a stress-free trip, which takes in several beautiful destinations in the one holiday.
You’ll have plenty of time in each city to see all of the main attractions and landmarks, and we can also arrange additional tours and activities to create a bespoke holiday for you, whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, a family, or a group.
The first leg of your tour begins in Venice, one of the most romantic cities in the world, where you’ll travel around the city on boats, rather than on foot.
Sail down the grand canal in a gondola, walk across the famous Rialto bridge, or visit the historic St. Mark’s Square.
Next you’ll stop in Florence, the artistic heart of Italy and birthplace of the Renaissance.
Florence is home to many beautiful museums, and has important examples of Renaissance art and architecture, including Brunelleschi’s Dome and Michelangelo’s David.
Next is Italy’s capital city, Rome, a bustling metropolis which was once the heart of the Roman Empire in Europe.
You’ll visit the ancient Colosseum and Roman Forum, and you’ll also have time to explore the seat of the Catholic church, the Vatican City.
Finally, you’ll have five days to unwind in Sorrento, on the bay of Naples, which is a great place to sample some delicious food and wine and watch the world go by.
Or if you prefer we can pack in more sightseeing, with visits to the Amalfi coast, Naples, and Capri.
Four inspiring Italian cities, all with their own unique culture, food, people and heritage.
