Best of Italy

Highlights

Visit – Rome, Florence, Venice, Lake Como, Milan

 

Italy is one of the single greatest repositories of sensorial pleasures on earth. From art and food to stunning and varied countryside, flamboyant fashion, Italy has it all.

Rome is more than a fascinating European capital and is a spectacular encyclopedia of a living history. The whole experience of Rome is so powerful as to be almost overwhelming at times. Florence, known as ‘The City of Lily’, is the hub of Renaissance art and architecture in Europe. Venice is just as romantic and beautiful as it looks in the travelogues and movies. The Piazzas and singing gondoliers, the idiosyncratic buildings and the vaporretos are all there to be seen, admired and photographed for posterity.

 

The city of Como overlooks the southwest end of the renowned Lake Como and is surrounded by green ridge hills, resulting in unparalleled, natural scenery.
