Trip throughout Italy. Visit Italy by private car with a driving guide.

I would like to help you plan your Italian vacation and then take you on it!
A journey by private car throughout Italy is an unforgettable experience. You see the country in a way that would never be possible if traveling by bus, train or plane. Just the trip from Florence to Rome, through Tuscany and Umbria, would be worth it. The countryside between Florence and Rome is considered one of the most beautiful in the world. One can stop to visit some lovely little medieval towns like Cortona, Todi, Assisi, Orvieto etc. etc.
I can help with hotel bookings too!

Here is an idea an Italy trip. All the major highlights and also places off the beaten path.This itinerary can also be reversed, start from Naples to end in Venice.



Venice is the city where you walk or go by boat, so you'll not see me until your third day here.
day one - Venice You'll probably arrive to Venice airport from Milan where you'll have arrived on a flight from overseas. I'll arrange for you to be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel by private taxi-boat. Remainders of the day at leisure. Overnight in Venice.
day two - Venice A local guide will meet you in the morning (or in the afternoon if you like to rest from the long trip the day before) for a two-hour sightseeing tour of Venice. Afternoon (or morning) at leisure. Overnight in Venice
day three - Venice/Florence We finally meet at Piazzale Roma, Venice's car terminal. I will arrange for you to be met at your hotel in Venice by taxi-boat and transferred to the main land. We drive to Florence via Padua and Bologna. Arrival in Florence in the afternoon. Overnight in Florence.
day four - Florence Full-day sight-seeing of Florence. In the morning we'll go and visit the Uffizi Museum and the Accademia with a local guide and after lunch we will continue sightseeing Florence on our own and we can also do a little shopping if you like. Overnight in Florence.
day five - Florence We meet in the morning for a half-day excursion to Pisa and San Gimignano. Ladies will probably want to go back to Florence to shop at leisure in the afternoon, but in case they don't care about that, we can continue and make it a full day excursion stopping for lunch at some nice place and include Volterra in our itinerary. Overnight in Florence.
day six - Florence/Rome We leave Florence in the morning and head for Rome. On the way we can stop in Sienna and Orvieto to mention two classical stops. One possible alternative would instead be to drive to Montalcino, after visiting Sienna, which the lovely medieval town where one of the most famous Italian wines is produced: the "Brunello". Near Montalcino is also the very interesting abbey of Sant'Antimo. Arrival to Rome in the late afternoon. Overnight in Rome.
day seven - Rome This is my place and I'll be giving you the best tours here!
