Italy Classics: Rome, Florence And The Tower Of Pisa
The trip in a nutshell
Self-driven tour
This is a self-driven tour - it isn’t compulsory to drive, however if you are willing to, then please tick the box when booking your trip.
Italy, often dubbed the "beautiful country," boasts a rich cultural heritage, making it a must-visit destination. Our 8-day itinerary begins in Rome, the eternal city, where ancient marvels like the Colosseum and the Pantheon blend with modern delights in neighbourhoods like Testaccio and Trastevere.
Heading north to Tuscany, we'll traverse the picturesque landscapes of Val d'Orcia and Chianti before reaching Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance. Nearby, we'll explore Lucca and Pisa, where the iconic leaning tower awaits our obligatory photo. En route back to Rome, a stop in Siena offers the chance to witness the famous Palio horse race. Our journey concludes in Rome, where we'll savour a traditional supplì with a smile, reflecting on the beauty and history we've encountered throughout our Italian adventure.
