Venice, Florence, and Rome stand as Italy’s finest destinations, and for excellent reasons! Venice will enchant you with its canals, gondolas, and centuries of history. Florence beckons with Renaissance treasures, boasting world-renowned art and captivating architecture. Finally, you’ll visit Rome, the eternal city, where ancient history and modern life meld in a spectacular fusion.
Venice is nothing short of unique, built on mudbanks in the lagoon, having forgone the convenience of cars for the charisma of canals. Getting lost in Venice is part of the fun, and if you’re on foot you’ll only find small backstreets leading to less-touristy and more authentic parts of the city.
