Utazzo Best of Italy Tour - 10 Days 9 Nights Across 3 Countries, 15 Cities
Overview & Highlights
Italy rarely fits neatly into ten days, yet Utazzo's Best of Italy tour manages to hit nearly every postcard-worthy corner without feeling rushed. The route begins in Rome, dips south toward Naples and the cliffside beauty of Capri Island, then swings back through Sorrento and Amalfi before climbing north to Florence's Renaissance streets. From there, travellers pass through the walled town of San Gimignano, the leaning marvel of Pisa, the quiet charm of Ferrara, and finally Venice's watery lanes, with a Ferrari Museum stop in Maranello along the way. A short detour into Vatican City and the tiny republic of San Marino rounds out this genuinely comprehensive circuit.

- Toss a coin into Rome's Trevi Fountain, then stroll around Vatican Square before pausing for a photo beside the ancient Colosseum.

- Join a guided Florence Walking Tour and step inside the San Gimignano 1300 Museum before sampling wine at a local Tuscan winery.
