Italy’s three great cities in one week, with every connection handled and the tour private to your party. Begin in Rome with a guided visit to the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica. Travel by high-speed train to Florence for a guided walk through the historic centre with entrance to the Uffizi Gallery, and a half-day trip to Pisa with entry to the Leaning Tower. Finish in Venice off the beaten path — a walking tour through the quieter corners of the historic centre, a classic gondola ride, and a lagoon cruise to Murano, Burano and Torcello with a glass-blowing demonstration. Centrally located 4 star hotels with breakfast, all rail between cities and every transfer are included, and a dedicated coordinator supports you throughout via Viator. Fly into Rome and home from Venice — no backtracking.
