The Eternal Charm of Rome
Begin your Italian adventure in Rome, where you can stroll through the legendary Colosseum, imagining a world of emperors and gladiators. A visit to the Roman Forum is de rigueur, offering a glimpse into the heart of ancient Rome’s political and social life. For art enthusiasts, Vatican City holds treasures like the Sistine Chapel’s iconic ceiling painted by Michelangelo.
While in Rome, immerse yourself in the local culture by sipping a perfectly crafted espresso at a streetside café or relishing a plate of pasta carbonara in a traditional trattoria.
Romantic Venice
No journey through Italy is complete without experiencing the romantic allure of Venice. Glide through its labyrinthine canals on a gondola, under the soft hues of the Venetian sky, while taking in centuries-old palazzi that reflect the city’s grandeur. Don’t miss the chance to explore St. Mark's Square, where the regal Doge’s Palace and opulent St. Mark's Basilica await.
For a unique cultural experience, delve into the city’s rich artistic heritage at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, which houses a vast array of modern art collected by its famous namesake, including Vasily Kandinsky's powerful Composition 8 and Jackson Pollock's commissioned mural.
