There are so many reasons to book on a group tour of Italy!

Italy is renowned for its rich history, stunning landscapes, delicious cuisine, and vibrant culture, and what better way to see Italy than on an escorted tour so that you don’t miss a thing!

A touring holiday is an ideal way to explore Italy’s wonders if you want to experience as much as possible in your 1-2 week holiday window from work. On a tour everything is planned out for you already by destination experts, so you can relax and enjoy the experience. Your local guide will to take you to all the classic must do sights as well as off the beaten track places and hidden gems that are not in any guide books and you would be unlikely to discover on your own.

On a grand tour of Italy with my supplier partner Travelsphere you can start in Venice and travel all the way down the boot as far as Sicily on a 14 night trip, and they have lots of other 7 night itineraries on offer too, depending on how much time you have or if you have a specific area you’d like to explore in more depth, eg. the Italian Lakes, Tuscany, Amalfi Coast, Puglia, Sardinia and Sicily. Travelsphere also have a sister company, Just You, which is for solo travellers only so you can take your Italian adventure on your own, in the company of other like-minded solo travellers, enjoying the social side of solo travelling. All Travelsphere & Just You trips are hosted by experienced tour directors and local specialist guides, experts at bringing everyone together.

Every holiday includes handpicked accommodation, many opportunities to sample authentic local flavours (especially important in Italy!), with many meals included in your itinerary, or your local guide will point you in the direction of the best places in town to eat if you want to head out on your own.

On Travelsphere’s Grand Tour of Italy you will enjoy a welcome dinner on your first night, a chance to meet your fellow travellers and your guides for your trip. Just some of the experiences you will enjoy on your trip are touring the floating city of Venice, spending the evening in the charming town of Treviso, visiting the historical city of Bologna, tasting delicious ice cream from a famous ice-cream parlour, viewing the Leaning Tower of Pisa, visiting Italy’s ‘art city’ Florence, visiting the fortress town of Orvieto, visiting Rome and its historical sights, entering Montecassino Abbey, exploring the ruins of Pompeii, enjoying a typical lunch in the seaside town of Pizzo Calabro, and visiting Taormina with its amazing views of Mount Etna. All this with days at leisure also included so you can relax and enjoy your location in your own time too.
