Selected departures from April to October 2019
Italy has it all, from world-class art and architecture to stunning scenery, not to mention some of the world’s finest food and wine. It’s ideal for the single traveller, especially if it’s your first time seeing the world on your own.
Tuscany is perhaps best known for its rolling hills, stately cypress trees and isolated farmhouses. But the region is also blessed with some of the most stunning towns and cities in the country; Florence, Siena and Arezzo to name just three. You’ll be able to enjoy all of them before we head to the eternal city of Rome. Nowhere else can quite compare with Rome’s rich history, and so much of it is still visible and tangible as you walk around the city with other solo travellers. You will have the opportunity to visit some of the iconic sites that make this one of the most exciting cities in the world.
