Full description
Florence and Tuscany deserve more than a rushed day trip. On this curated overnight 2-day journey from Rome, you’ll do more than check boxes, you’ll go deeper. Travel by private minivan, stay overnight in a 4-star hotel, and get insider access to the region’s most storied sites. A walk through Siena, lunch at a family-run winery, a wine window tasting and Florentine steak dinner in Florence, then skip-the-line entry to a world-famous statue and a landmark cathedral before a final stop in a medieval hill town. Every moment is designed to unlock Italy’s art, flavors, and landscapes.
