Rome, la città eternale, is a spectacular destination that has the sole aim of giving you a taste of la dolce vita. As you sip a cappuccino and munch on an Italian cornetto, your mood will first relax and then enliven; the evocative flavors may inspire you to consider how you will best enjoy the city. Perhaps a leisurely walk through the glorious ruins of Ancient Rome, an exquisite lunch in the Parco dei Fiori, followed by an extended visit to Vatican City to marvel at its wondrous art? Truly, the choices are as endless as they are delightful; and whatever you do in Rome, you will cherish the resulting memories for a long time to come.

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.

As we travel from Florence and pass into the Umbrian countryside we find ourselves in a land that is no less inspiring.

It is hard to pass through Assisi without feeling a glimmering spark of something otherworldly. This medieval town is home to Italy's patron saint, St. Francis, who founded one of the world's preeminent monastic orders. But something truly transcendental permeates Assisi, a phenomenon that is obvious in the sharp brush strokes of Giotto and Cimabue or in the sight of the sinking sun disappearing into the green Umbrian hills. Maybe this is God at work, or maybe it's just the result of the interplay between man and nature. Either way, Assisi is sure to set the mood perfectly for a most enjoyable and relaxing vacation!
