We just took our first group on a tour of Italy and it was AMAZING! We started the tour in Venice and then went to Florence, Rome, the Sorrento Peninsula, and Capri. We toured the cities, rode gondolas in Venice, watched glass blowing demos, took a pasta making class, visited sites like the Coliseum, Pompeii, and the Vatican, did a wine tasting at a Tuscan vineyard, and so much more. Italy is a beautiful place and if you love history and architecture, this is the tour for you! Enjoy a couple of photos from this trip and when they inspire you to plan a trip . . . we got you.
