After breakfast on the following day, we’ll begin our exploration of this incredible ancient city, including visits to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel and the Colosseum.

Day 3 & 4 – Tuscany

On day three we’ll leave the cobble stone streets of the ancient metropolis behind and head for the country making stops along the way to explore little castle towns that look the same now as they did centuries before. We’ll spend the afternoon of day three and all of day four exploring the lush rolling hills and Italian cypress lined roads of the tuscan countryside. Here you’ll be treated to even more excellent food and several local regional wines.
