Following “My Brilliant Friend”

Known for its unique, boot-like shape, Italy is famed around the world for its culture, traditions, food, and endless historical sites to discover. Italians are also known for their boundless zest for life and hand-made pasta – not to mention their unparalleled reputation as romantic and passionate lovers!

But what makes Italy truly unique goes beyond the opera and the arts. Every city has its own culture, dialect, food, and traditions, making this a destination packed with endless opportunities for your cultural enrichment and personal connection.

We’ll follow in the footsteps of ancient Romans, live la dolce vita (“the good life”), discover Michelin-starred restaurants and local markets, and learn the secrets of hand-churned gelato. In Napoli, we’ll get inspired by the novel My Brilliant Friend, learn the secrets of Neapolitan pizza, and take in the panoramic views on secret islands. In Florence, we’ll marvel at art and architecture as we sip fine wines. At the same time, we will also discover Italy’s gastronomic treasures through cooking classes with the locals. In Bologna, we’ll go hunting for truffles. In Trieste – a hidden gem – we’ll discover Vienna by the sea, an intersection between the Mediterranean and European culture.
