Italy in 7-10 days

Italy in 7-10 Days

If you only have one week in Italy, you will have time to see the “big three,” that is Venice, Florence, and Rome. Each is distinct and will provide a wonderful glimpse into the country. A word of warning though: once you’re there, you will not want to come back!

Day 1-3, Rome & Vatican City: Colosseum, Circus Maximus, Forum, Sistine Chapel, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain

Day 4-5, Florence: Shop along the Ponte Vecchio, see incredible works of art at the Uffizi, the Pitti Palace and The Galleria dell'Accademia di Firenze, visit the Duomo and other churches.

Day 6-7, Venice: Gondola rides, Piazza San Marco, walk over picturesque bridges for spectacular photo ops, and explore shops full of intricate Venetian masks.

Culinary & Wine Tour of Italy

If there's one thing Italy is known for, it's food! A culinary tour of the country will showcase their signature dishes, and the traditional way to make them.

Day 1-2, Rome: Enjoy your introduction to Italy in Rome, enjoying classic Italian fare at hole in the wall restaurants. Eat dessert al fresco as you taste delicious gelato while lounging on the Spanish Steps.

Day 3-6, Bologna: Learn how to make a traditional Bolognese sauce, and visit where true Parmesan Reggiano is made.

Day 7-10, Tuscany: The rustic charm of Tuscany will be revealed as you walk in fresh gardens, drink delicious wines, learn to make homemade pasta, and picnic in vineyards.

Great overview of Italy with some wonderful focus areas. Difficult to see all the key things in each place with only 11 days.

Easy Pace Italy
Very well thought out and planned. I should have practice going up and down hills and stairs ahead of time would’ve made the walking easier. Loved the narrative via Jackie Whiteford
It put more meaning to what we saw and experienced. I should of started my allergy meds a week before to get ready for all the beautiful fragrances in the air

You see quite a bit of Italy. Well paced and excellent guided commentary. Terri Marshell is a skillful guide who takes great care for those on her tours. Highly recommended.

Amalfi Coast Walking
The guide (Andy) was excellent and the whole week was very well organised and ran smoothly. The accommodation was very clean, couldn't fault that at all. However, having chosen this "Agri tourismo" Italy, destination with it's organic farm label and the reviews stating that the food was excellent, I'm afraid that we could not agree with those reviews at all. Whilst the breakfast was adequate the evening meals were basic and of of a high standard. We were fed endless bread and pasta, carbs and there was a distinct lack of vegetables and fruit. This became overwhelming as the week progressed. Consequentially we found ourselves frequenting a local hotel whose food was excellent and varied.

One thing which we found of no interest was the pasta making and the mozzarella making sessions. They were also quite expensive per person to participate in. On a plus note these sessions gave us opportunities to escape to a hotel locally to enjoy food not heavily favouring carbs and a lack of vegetables. The food at that location was delicious, memorable and of a high standard.

We loved the group of people, the guide and the expeditions. We would definitely use Explore again and would highly recommend it.
