See it all from vineyards to architecture

You'll be privy to scenes of cream-hued walls rising from the deep green thickets of the Tuscan countryside.  Let your eye wander over the stretch of vineyards languidly rolling across hilltops and the finely tapered points of Cyprus trees brushing the powder blue horizon. Sip your way through the wines of Chianti and Montalcino, explore the shining city of Florence where dazzling displays of the Renaissance permeate both its iconic art and architecture. Discover the classical effervescence of Rome as you meander along its streets, visiting the towering Colosseum, Castel Sant'Angelo, the Trevi Fountain and other quintessential Roman landmarks.  

Singular experiences to tempt your taste buds

From the evolution of the plucky Tuscan grape to its end-game as robustly flavoured crimson liquor and all the savoury delights that make Italian cuisine so distinctive, your tour will keep your tastes aflame with new discoveries. Mingle with the aromas and flavours of fresh produce in a cooking lesson in Chianti. Swish, sniff and swirl your way through the world of wine with tastings in the Italian countryside. Travel the elegant coastline of Cinque Terre by the pull of a train or the float of a ferry.

Gather your energy in style

Your tour will whisk you through an exquisite range of Italian sights, but it will also have you resting to regain your strength in luxurious properties. Spend your nights in 4-star hotels that are chosen specifically to match the elegant, dynamic and classical nature of Italy's culture. From central Rome to the bustle of Florence, your time to wind down will be well spent curled up into soft, sumptuous linens and surrounded by decadent wood paneling, classical detailing and excellent service.
