7 Days in Italy, incl. Rome and Venice
Florence's Hotel Executive serves as your home base during this 7-day Tuscan getaway, featuring day trips to medieval Siena and San Gimignano. The tour includes family vineyard wine tastings in Chianti, traditional homemade lunches, and stunning views from Florence's best viewpoints.
- Days 1-2
Rome and Vatican City
Begin your week in Rome. Visit the Vatican Museums on day 2, arriving by 8:15 AM. Even with skip-the-line tickets, morning crowds grow quickly. A recent visitor shared: "The early Vatican tour was perfect. By the time we finished in the Sistine Chapel, the crowds were getting intense." Spend your afternoon exploring Trastevere, which comes alive after 6 PM when locals return from work.
- Day 3
Rome to Florence
The high-speed train from Roma Termini to Florence takes 1.5 hours. Pick a seat on the right side for the best views of the Tuscan countryside. From Florence's Santa Maria Novella station, you can walk to most hotels. If staying across the Arno River, take a taxi with your luggage. Your first afternoon is perfect for discovering the less touristy Oltrarno district.
- Day 4
Tuscany Day Trip
Visit the Chianti region, including Siena and San Gimignano. Pack layers for changing weather. Morning fog often lifts to reveal warm afternoons. Watch your step in Siena. The sloping Piazza del Campo requires good walking shoes on the medieval stones. You'll have lunch at a family vineyard, so keep breakfast light.

Venice Departure
7 Days in Italy, incl. Venice and Rome
A rail adventure linking 5 major cities: Venice, Bologna, Florence, Pisa, and Rome. The package includes 6 nights' accommodation, pasta-making in Bologna's Quadrilatero, and guided tours of Florence's Duomo and Rome's Colosseum. Morning food markets and afternoon cultural visits round out each day at approx. $360 per day.
- Days 1-2
Venice
Start your week in Venice. Take a 45-minute shared water taxi from Marco Polo Airport to your hotel. As one traveler noted: "Getting lost among Venice's canals is part of the experience - just follow signs to 'Rialto' or 'San Marco' to find your bearings again." Walk through Cannaregio early morning before the crowds fill the streets. Get a 24-hour vaporetto pass to explore the islands easily. For the best views of Venice, visit San Giorgio Maggiore Bell Tower instead of the busy St. Mark's.
- Day 3
Bologna
Take a 2-hour high-speed train to Bologna. You'll find 45km of covered walkways perfect for exploring in any weather. Sign up for a pasta making class to learn how to make traditional tortellini. One participant shared: "Learning to make pasta from a local nonna was definitely a highlight." Book ahead to climb the leaning Asinelli Tower. Visit the Quadrilatero food market in the early morning when locals do their shopping.
- Days 4-5
Florence & Pisa
Florence is just 30 minutes from Bologna by train. Start at the San Lorenzo leather market before walking to the Duomo. Book Uffizi Gallery tickets online for after 4pm when it's less crowded. Take a morning trip to Pisa (1-hour train) and see the Leaning Tower before the tour buses arrive. Back in Florence, head to Piazzale Michelangelo for sunset. Bring wine and get there 30 minutes early for a good spot.
- Days 6-7
Rome
The train to Rome takes about 90 minutes. Visit the Colosseum early (it opens at 8:30am) to avoid crowds. A visitor noted: "The Roman Forum gets extremely hot midday - bring water and a hat if visiting May-September." Schedule Vatican Museums for 4pm or later when tour groups leave. Spend your final evening in Trastevere, where locals start dinner after 8pm.

Arrival in Cortona
Take the train to Terontola station from Rome or Florence and check into your villa in the Cortona countryside. "The setting was true Tuscan, with comfortable, private accommodations that made us feel right at home." Book an afternoon train between 2-4 PM to avoid crowds and relax before welcome dinner.
- Day 2
Cortona & Truffle Hunting
Start at a local torrefazione to learn Italian coffee preparation. Follow local custom by only ordering cappuccino before noon. Go truffle hunting on Mount Sant'Egidio but wear sturdy shoes for muddy forest paths. Enjoy a forest picnic with your truffle finds before exploring Cortona's Etruscan walls and medieval center. End your day with a traditional Tuscan cooking class.
- Day 3
Montepulciano Wine Country
Visit the renaissance town of Montepulciano and its famous Vino Nobile. Tour a historic wine cellar for tastings and lunch. Bring a light jacket since the underground tunnels stay cool year-round.

- Best of Rome, Florence & Venice
Worth the wait… Postponed due to COVID, we finally embarked on our tour of Rome, Florence and Venice. This trip provided a wonderful opportunity to become introduced to these three different regions, each different and unique in its own way. Rome was splendid for all that it had to offer, seeing the Colosseum, Pantheon, St Peter’s basilica, St. Peter square, the view from the dome, The Vatican, followed by a high-speed train to Florence to experience the works of Michelangelo, which was complemented by tours of the rolling countryside of Siena and San Gimignano. This was followed by another high-speed train to picturesque Venice,
- Italy By High-Speed Train
Well, I didn't know that the Italian Trains are so great! High speed is fantastic, from Rome to Florence it was just 1hr and 30 min. What I like was the fact that the hotels were centrally located, good and clean. And traveling between the cities was very comfortable. The tours were good, in Florence VERY good. Maybe, you can add more optionals excursions or some food tasting. But, thank you Flag and thank you, Alessandra, she was very helpful.
- Authentic Luxury Italy: an Elegant Journey through Rome & the Tuscan Hills
Truly exceptional. Every detail was taken care of. Drivers, tours, skip the line tickets everywhere. All were first class. Knowledgeable your guides willing to accommodate our preferences and interests. The cars were all Mercedes and BMW - new and clean. Drivers were equally accommodating. Euan in Florence was amazing. We saw and did so much. Truly felt like we did all the main things plus a lot of culture and knowledge. I loved this trip. Hats off to Exploro Tours. They were extremely responsive and helpful in whatever way needed. They were willing to customize and add on. Every place was prepared for my vegetarian travel partner. I bought this package online and was very nervous about it. I joked that no one might show up for us at the airport, but it was 100% the opposite. I don’t usually write reviews and have very high travel standards, so this was worth the time.
