The Ancient Romans were famous for their decadence. Imagine Julius Caesar sprawled across a chaise longue, drinking wine out of a golden chalice with his manservant feeding him luscious, plump grapes... Sounds fairly pricey, as it no doubt was! But today all of Rome's patented decadence is available to the rest of us who aren't Roman Emperors at a great value. So if you've been craving a bottle of great red wine with a heaping plate of Spaghetti alla Carbornara, what's stopping you from hopping a flight and enjoying Rome the way the ancients intended!
Then after a picturesque train/car ride through Umbria and Tuscany we arrive at our next destination.
In Florence we find not only Italy's finest collection of art, but also a city that in itself is among the country's loveliest examples of artistry. Famous churches and museums, among them the Uffizi Gallery, bejewel the city, each holding the priceless treasures of the Renaissance. But promenading the Florentine streets will present you with magical architecture in graceful dialogue with the nearby Tuscan countryside, and a vibrant people whose mannerisms and language are redolent of Florence's creative spark. As if this weren't enough, local chefs and winemakers dazzle our palates with their own artistry-forged each time they masterfully harness nature's bounty and create one of Italy's finest gastronomies.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is as much a cultural icon in America as Mickey Mouse, yet many know little to nothing about Pisa, one of Tuscany's greatest but most overlooked gems. Like all great cities in the region, Pisa is endowed with an impressive artistic heritage, rich history, and mouth-watering cuisine. But what is best about Pisa, especially for lovers of Tuscany, is that it is a refreshing, quaint, and decidedly different version of Tuscan culture, which itself is arguably Italy's most significant. So if you are touring Tuscany, be sure to drop by for at least a few nights, because often it is smaller cities like Pisa that enamor our spirits most powerfully!
