Day 6: Florence

FlorenceThis morning your English-speaking guide will meet you at your hotel to take you on a private walking tour of the city. Florence's rich past as the cultural center of the Italian Renaissance can still be seen today in the wealth of art gathered here, and in the preservation of its splendid architecture. The tour includes visits of the Duomo and the Baptistery, the Piazza della Signori, the Ponte Vecchio, and the famous Accademia Gallery (entrance fees included). Reservations can also be made for you at the Uffizi Gallery in the afternoon, where you can view the famous art collection of the Medici.

Day 7: Chianti & Siena with Tuscan Lunch

Today your English-speaking driver will pick you up at the hotel for a full-day excursion into the celebrated Chianti Wine Region, an area as much renowned for its natural beauty as for its excellent wines. A stop at a local winery for a tour of the cellars and a wine tasting can be arranged if desired. You will then continue on to Siena for a chance to stroll its winding streets and see the Piazza del Campo, where the Palio race is held every year.

Torre Guelfa

In the evening, you will visit the charming Tuscan town of Figline Valdarno. Here, at the Ristorante Torre Guelfa, the expert cooking staff will prepare a gala dinner of authentic Tuscan cuisine for you, accompanied by carefully selected wines.

Your driver will return you to your hotel in Florence for overnight.

Day 8: Florence - Venice

After check-out from your hotel this morning your driver will transfer you to the rail station for your train to Venice.

Venice

You will have first class rail tickets with seat reservations. The journey will take two and a half hours on the comfortable Eurostar train.

Day 9: Venice

Venice PalaceThis morning, your private English-speaking guide will meet you at the hotel for your guided walking tour of the city. Venice's charm lies both in its unique civil engineering achievements, and in the harmony of Eastern and Western artistic styles that have flourished here over the centuries. Your tour highlights some of the major sites that define the look and history of Venice, and includes visits to Doges' Palace (entrance fees included), St. Mark's Basilica and St. Mark's Square.

Day 10: Departure from Italy
