A taste of Italy

Day 1- Overnight Flight​

 

Settle in for your overnight flight to Italy — the land of pasta, history, and endless charm. Rest up… tomorrow, the adventure begins.​

Day 2- Arrive in Milan + Welcome Dinner

Benvenuti a Milano, Italy’s dazzling fashion capital. Stroll through its charming streets and take a romantic detour to Juliet’s famous balcony in Verona, where you can channel your inner poet.
That evening, share stories and laughter over a delicious welcome dinner at a cozy, family-run trattoria — the perfect start to your Italian journey.

​

Day 3- Milan by Land & Water

Glide along the canals on a scenic boat ride to the vibrant Navigli district, where aperitivo (Italy’s happy hour) awaits. In the afternoon, enjoy a guided orientation through Milan’s bustling city center, then spend the rest of the day exploring at your own pace.

​

Day 4- To Turin’s Wine Country

Start your day with a relaxed breakfast at the hotel before catching an afternoon train to the heart of Turin’s wine district. Wander through elegant streets, soak in the city’s charm, and toast to the evening with a celebratory drink. The night is yours to enjoy.

​

Day 5- Turin to Alba

Enjoy a leisurely morning before indulging in a decadent cheese tasting — creamy, rich, and oh-so-Italian. In the afternoon, board the train to Alba, arriving just in time for an enchanting evening walking tour. Known as a foodie’s paradise, Alba sits in the heart of the Piedmont region, surrounded by rolling vineyards and famed for its Barolo wine. Marvel at its cathedrals, gothic architecture, and timeless charm.

​

Day 6- Alba at Your Leisure

Savor a free day in Alba to explore at your own pace — wander the cobblestone streets, linger in a café, or sample more of the region’s culinary treasures. For those who want to dive deeper into the local flavors, join an optional wine tasting tour through the world-renowned Langhe hills.

​

Day 7- Discovering Asti

Catch the train to Asti, a gem of the Piedmont region known as the “City of 100 Towers” for its impressive medieval skyline. Upon arrival, enjoy a delicious lunch before setting off on a walking tour to uncover its historic streets, charming piazzas, and rich winemaking heritage.

​

Day 8- To the Cinque Terre Coast

Trade cityscapes for the sparkling Ligurian Sea as you travel by train to the breathtaking Cinque Terre. Settle into the colorful seaside village of Monterosso, where pastel houses cling to cliffs and waves kiss the shore. Wander the narrow streets, soak in the coastal views, and feel the laid-back magic of Italian Riviera life.

​

Day 9- Coastal Hopping in Cinque Terre

Enjoy a free day in Monterosso with a train pass included, giving you the freedom to explore all five enchanting Cinque Terre villages at your own pace. From sun-soaked beaches to cliffside trails, each town offers its own unique slice of coastal charm.

​

Day 10- Leisure & Sunset Sails

Spend another day exactly how you like — whether that’s lounging by the sea, hiking the coastal paths, or savoring fresh seafood. In the evening, opt for an unforgettable excursion: a sunset cruise along the Riviera, complete with crisp Prosecco in hand as the sky melts into shades of gold and rose.

​

Day 11- Return to Milan + Farewell Dinner

Board the train back to Milan for one last taste of Italy’s vibrant energy. Spend the afternoon picking up last-minute souvenirs or strolling through the city’s elegant streets. In the evening, gather with your fellow travelers for a festive farewell dinner — a chance to share laughs, toast to new friendships, and savor your final Italian feast.

​

Day 12-Arrivederci, Italia

Today, you depart for home with your heart (and camera roll) full of unforgettable moments. The memories — from sunlit coastlines to rich glasses of wine — are yours to keep forever.
