Rome, with the solemnity of its historical reality and its decisive role in shaping world events, once the capital of an empire and now the seat of Christianity, offers the occasion for an unrepeatable, unique trip. The example of Roman history and religion and the extraordinary wealth of the city’s artistic patrimony have created an irresistible fascination and attraction in all ages that have made Rome – today more than ever – one of the principal goals of international tourism. Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, a city situated on a plain along the banks of the Arno, surrounded by harmonious hills framed by splendid villas immersed in greenery. Florence gave birth to universal geniuses such as Dante, Leonardo and Galileo, and artists like Giotto, Brunelleschi and Botticelli. Florence is a city of perfect harmony, of black and grey colours, of architectural rhythms accentuated in her arches, a city of flowers and charming hilly landscapes crowned with cypress trees. Venice, a city unique in the world because of her position on 118 isles in the centre of the lagoon with a joyous atmosphere created not only by the natural surroundings, but above all by the incredible number of buildings and churches that are all veritable artistic jewels. The town is capricious, intricate and a veritable maze of narrow lanes, with 400 bridges that span over 180 canals.
