Book nowItaly’s Treasures
A journey through art, food and wine.
For travelers whose connection to Italy runs through its flavors and artistic heritage, the Italy’s Treasures tour offers a deeper culinary and cultural exploration.
This journey pairs celebrated art and architecture with hands-on tastings and regional specialties. Vineyards stretch across rolling hills, local markets brim with seasonal ingredients and meals become opportunities to understand how geography and history influence what appears on the plate.
Beyond the food and wine, guided visits reveal the stories behind Italy’s creative legacy, from masterworks of art to centuries-old craftsmanship.
Spotlight on Tuscany
Slower, richer, closer.
For those drawn to the Italian countryside, Spotlight on Tuscany offers a more focused regional experience.
Here, the pace softens. Cypress-lined roads wind through vineyard-dotted hills. Medieval towns rise from golden landscapes. Time is set aside to enjoy the pleasures Tuscany is known for — local wines, rustic cuisine and conversations that stretch long into the evening.
With fewer hotel changes and more time in one region, the journey allows travelers to settle in and connect with the landscape in a meaningful way.
Italy rewards curiosity. Whether you choose a sweeping tour of its cities, a culinary-infused journey or a slower stay in the countryside, there are always deeper stories waiting to be discovered.
