Special Event Spotlight

From December 24, 2024, to January 6, 2026, the Jubilee—a major Catholic celebration—will take place in Rome. On some departure dates during this time, tour itineraries may be modified to accommodate for events taking place in the city. Click here for more information.

On this tour, coccoli—and baci, and crostini, and more—steal the show.

From endless plains to elegant hilltop towns, Tuscany and Umbria have plenty in common—including a culinary tradition that would make your nonna proud. As you drive with your group across these regions, you’ll find fine wines and humble, time-honored bites at each stop. And don’t overlook those classic sights: Feast your eyes on Florence and Siena (and Rome on the extension) to truly savor this country’s big, bold culture.
