1 Week in Italy
Classic Tour of Italy: Rome, Florence, Venice
If you only have 7 days in Italy and it is your first time visiting this amazing country, this Classic Italy Tour could be the perfect choice for you. The highlights of this tour include the Colosseum, The Roman Forum in Rome, Florence Cathedral, Uffizi Galleries and Accademia Gallery in Florence, St. Mark's Square, and the Gondola Experience in Venice. If you are traveling from February to March, you will get a chance to attend the world-known Venice Carnival.
If you want to drop a visit to Milan, the fashion capital of the world, just take one more day from Venice.
Stunning Sicily Tour
If you are a senior movie fan, you may watch some classic films shot in Sicily, such as The Godfather Trilogy, Malèna, and The Legend of 1900. Don't just watch the movies, go to Sicily and see the stunning views by yourself.
Let's start with Palermo, Sicily's cultural, economic and tourist capital. Spend a whole day enjoying the ancient ruins in Segesta Archaeological Park and the natural wonders in Zingaro Reserve. Of course, you can't miss the Cefalu cathedral and Monreale's ornate mosaic. Continue to join the historical feast by visiting the Archeological Park in Agrigento. One of the highlights in Sicily is Mount Etna, which is an active stratovolcano, and offering a diverse volcanic landscape. Taste some wonderful wines in Catania before concluding your Sicily tour.
Treasures of Tuscany: Florence, Siena, Pisa & Lucca
I believe most travelers would like to taste some wine in Italy, even though you are not a big fan of wine. Tuscany is one of the best places for visiting vineyards and savoring Italian cuisine. But if someone considers Tuscany only famous for wine estates, I would definitely tell him wrong.
Even without mentioning Florence, the heart of the Renaissance, Tuscany still boasts plenty of renowned places. For example, Pisa's iconic landmark Leaning Tower, a unique medieval structure. Or, Romanesque and Gothic architecture in San Gimignano. Travel more, explore further.
Taste of Southern Italy: Naples and Amalfi Coast
If it is your return trip to Italy, why not take a week to immerse yourself in Southern Italy? You will find a special experience that is totally different from your last trip to Italy.
There are so many things to do in Southern Italy: enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the Amalfi Coast; learn how to make an authentic pizza in Naples; taste the rich olive oil in the Ravello area, step back to mysterious ancient Pompeii, immerse yourself in the stunning sea cave Blue Grotto in Capri. What else? Wait for you to discover more with Odynovo.
Charming Lakes & Riviera Discovery
Fancy the lakes and coastlines in Italy? Do consider visiting the Liguria region (known as Riviera). This captivating place is embraced by the sea and the mountains, with pastel-colored houses and breathtaking views.
From Venice to Milan, then continue to Turin and La Spezia, and conclude your tour in Perugia. During this tour, you will relish many lakes such as Lake Garda, Lake Como, and Lake Maggiore. Personally, Cinque Terre is one of my favorite places in Italy, and I think you will also fall in love with these small villages at first glance.
10 Days in Italy
Tastes of Italy: Food & Wine
I love Italian food and wine very much. If you are a kindred spirit, how about taking a food and wine tour in Italy?
This 12-day tour covers the Italian cuisine center: Venice, Florence, Rome, and the food capital of Italy - Bologna. Besides the most-visited attractions, you will have a Cicchetti tasting in Venice, a walking food tour around the Quadrilateral in Bologna, a wine-tasting experience in Florence, and a Cooking Class to make homemade pasta. Are you feeling mouth-watering now? I am!
Italy Family Vacation
Italy is an ideal tourist destination for families. From culture to history, from Italian cuisine to beaches, Italy has everything children love.
Spend 2-3 days in Naples on a food tour, including a pizza-making course, and a history tour exploring Pompeii and Underground Naples. Take another 3 days to Rome. The must-visit attractions for children include Cinecittà Studios, the Roman Forum, and Vatican City. Does your kid love cheese? If so, the Pecorino cheese factory will be an unforgettable experience. In the 2-day Florence tour, the highlights are the Uffizi Gallery, Ponte Vecchio, and Museum of Dante's House. Also, your little chef will learn how to make pasta in a cooking class. The final stop in Venice, learning how to make a mask is a must. After this family vacation in Italy, you will notice some wonderful changes in your child.
Discover the Northern and the Central of Italy
Northern and central Italy provide a sea of architectural and artistic treasures that you can indulge in here for a month! But if you only have 10 days, I will suggest you to Venice, Florence, Lucca, Pisa, and, of course, Rome.
In Venice, an unforgettable experience will be seeing a glassblowing demonstration. And a mask atelier will give you a deep impression beyond the Grand Canal. No matter whether you are good at photography, don't forget to take some pictures of the Ponte Vecchio Bridge, a medieval stone arch bridge over the Arno in Florence. Before going to Rome, you will appreciate the Renaissance architecture wonders in Lucca on a biking tour and marvel at the Leaning Tower in Pisa. BTW, you can try some funny poses with the Leaning Tower and post on your social media. Guess how many "Likes" you will get?

12 Days in Italy
Luxury Sardinia Escape
I love Sardinia very much. It's a perfect destination that merges together with nature, culture, history and luxury resorts.
Spending 12 days discovering Sardinia is enough. From the luxurious charm of Costa Smeralda in Porto Cervo to the bustling capital of Cagliari, from mysterious Neolithic ruins to the coastal town of Santa Teresa Gallura, from stunning sea cliffs to pristine beaches, Sardinia always offers the best for you.
Essential of Italy With Train Tour
When I visit a new country, I always choose to travel to some parts by train. Because I can closely communicate with local people, enjoy the changing views along the way, and enjoy a leisurely pace. I think Italy is an ideal destination to take a train tour.
Here I recommend you take Odynovo's 12-day train tour from central Italy to the northern part, including Rome, Florence, Cinque Terre, Milan, Lake Como, and Venice. You will have some free time in each place, which make your trip more flexible.
