Italy is known for its history, art and food and the European country is one of the world’s most popular destinations. The best all inclusive tours of Italy are those that take in the city’s three most visited cites of Rome, Venice and Florence. It’s easy to see all three places on a week’s tour and experience the Coliseum, St. Peter’s and the Vatican, the Grand Canal and the Uffizi Gallery.
Other all inclusive tours take in a particular region such as Tuscany, Lombardy or Umbria and there is plenty to see and do in each of these areas. Especially popular is Tuscany, an area known for its rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves. Any tour to this area generally takes in Florence and Pisa, letting you enjoy the Renaissance art of Florence, and Pisa’s iconic leaning tower, as well as the many picturesque Medieval hill towns that the region is known for.
Many companies offer all inclusive tours of Italy, and the cost can vary considerably, as can what’s included. If it’s your first visit to this fascinating country, a tour that takes in the three key cities of Rome, Florence and Venice might be ideal; it’s a great way to get an introduction to Italy. If you have visited before, a tour that specializes in a particular area might be a better option, and many tours also focus on sampling local food and wine, or exploring the country’s art treasures – two things that Italy is well known for.
The cost and the length of the tour are important factors; you should also look for a tour that gives you enough time to actually relax and enjoy the sights and the culture. Many all inclusive tours have free time built in to the itinerary, although they often include admission to museums, galleries or other sights. And of course, on an all inclusive holiday, everything is included, which means your transportation in Italy, meals, accommodation, and the services of a tour guide. Check carefully to see what is and isn’t included in the price of your tour, and what extra costs you may need to come up with. Hotel room standards can vary widely too, and you’ll often pay more for a single room.
One way to find the best all inclusive tours of Italy is to look at reviews from previous customers, which can help to ensure you get the most out of your visit.
