Italy is one of the top tourist destinations in the world. Some experts claim that half of the world’s artistic heritage is found there. Rome, Venice, Florence, Verona—Bella Italia! The Bel Paese (Beautiful Country) is one of the greatest repositories of sensory pleasures on Earth. From art to cuisine, from breathtaking and diverse landscapes to vibrant fashion, Italy truly has it all.
Tuscany, located at the heart of the Italian peninsula, is one of the most photogenic areas in Europe. It offers a unique blend of natural beauty and millennia-old monuments. Florence, the region’s main city, renowned for its cultural treasures, has often been described as an open-air museum surrounded by medieval walls, with free entry. Yet it remains a dynamic city, full of energy and life.
​
The name “Venice” evokes magic—gondolas gliding through canals, awe-inspiring cathedrals, centuries-old monuments, countless islands linked by breathtaking bridges, and a magnificent square that seems to sink into the sea. This dream-like destination, stretching down the Adriatic coast to Rimini, forms an important part of Premier International Tours’ program.
