On your guided tour head to the smallest nation in the world that’s nestled within the very heart of Rome, The Vatican City.

Check out today after breakfast and drive to the historic town of Florence. Drive through a picturesque stretch of olive groves and vineyards to Florence, a shrine to the wonders of the Renaissance, with more artistic treasures per square meter than any other city in the world. On our guided city tour of Florence we move on to experience this artistic marvel up-close as we make a photo stop at the world’s fourth- largest Cathedral and Florence’s tallest building, the Duomo. The magnanimity of its scale juxtaposed with the beauty of its design gives this monument its overwhelming character. Standing beside this is the Baptistery with its iconic ‘Gate to Paradise’- a pair of gilded bronze doors that have now become an icon of Renaissance art- and also the open-air gallery in the Signoria Square. We continue this journey into the past wandering by the city’s oldest standing bridge, Ponte Vecchio and make a photo stop at the magical Piazzale Michelangelo to get a bird’s-eye view of this beautiful city.

Day 7
Venice
After breakfast, drive to Tronchetto to board a cruise and glide romantically past dreamy palaces, through incredible miniature canals to the Piazza San Marco (St. Mark's Square).
Once at the Square, we have some time to explore the Square itself, dubbed as the ‘finest drawing room in Europe’ by Napoleon, courtesy of the forever carnival-like vibe it gave off. With it being the only public Square in the city, Napoleon’s phrase is still an apt description for the Square. We visit the popular St. Mark’s Basilica. Standing next to this Byzantine- style basilica is the Gothic-style Doge’s Palace. Now a museum, the palace houses some of the finest examples of the ionic Murano glass and also of Venetian art.
We visit the Murano Glass Showroom (When Open) to get a glimpse of the glass-blowing process of this iconic ancient Venetian craft that ranges from sculptures to vases to bowls to jewellery. And because these beautiful pieces are so hard to resist, you can even purchase a few collectables. Hereafter, we go on yet another water voyage with the Gondola ride along the Bridge of Sighs that connects the Doge’s Palace at the square to its prison.
At the conclusion of your visit return to Tronchetto by boat.
