DAY 1-3: (rome)

No other city in the world equals the history of the Eternal City. Founded more than 2700 years ago, the city of Rome reigned as the Caput Mundi, or Capital of the World.   

With a heady blend of artistic and architectural masterpieces, classical ruins, and extravagant baroque churches and piazzas, Rome is Italy's treasure trove, packed with two millennia of artistic achievement. It's here that a metropolis once bustled around the carved marble monuments of the Roman Forum, where centuries later Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) painted Christian history in the Sistine Chapel, where Gian Lorenzo Bernini's nymphs and naiads dance in their fountains, and where an empire of gold was worked into the crowns of rulers for centuries. For culture-seekers and historians, this city simply oozes with possibilities for discovery, a chance to step back in time yet have one foot firmly in the present. It’s a city where you can have an espresso in a square designed by Bernini, then take the modern metro back to your hotel room in a renovated Renaissance palace.

> HALF DAY WALKING TOUR OF ROME:

Your private tour will take you on a journey through Rome; a city in which the power and the glory of the Great Roman Empire developed and extended.  Your guide will walk you through the enchanting ruins of the Imperial-era, beginning with the Piazza Venezia and its impressive monument dedicated to King Victor Emanuel II and the Unknown Soldier.  You will continue to the famous Piazza del Campidoglio designed by Michelangelo, from where you will have a breathtaking view of the Roman Forum. With the remains of the Forum as a backdrop, your guide will present the history and anecdotes on the social and political life of Rome, from its origin to the glorious days of the Great Roman Empire.  Proceed to the imposing Coliseum, iconic symbol of Imperial Rome, and one of the most impressive building of the Imperial-era.

Sicily: The Trinacria of the ancient Greeks, the culture of the Normans and the influence of the Arabs. Experience an island as exciting and vibrant as its sea, its volcanoes and its people. Sicily is an island full of strong contrasts.

A land rich in history and culture, Sicily is home to lively, enticing cities of art, ancient fishermen’s villages where time seems to have come to a standstill and amazing natural wonders. Enjoy the many cultural treasures along with beautiful beaches and islands where you can relax surrounded by crystal clear waters. The island is a product of the Greek, Asian and African influences that have left permanent traces of themselves in the island’s culture.
