Weekend Tours in Rome
A couple of days spent in Rome is enough not to get to know the capital and fall in love with this city. The program of the "weekend" in Rome simply must include visits to: the Vatican Museums; the picturesque ruins of the Colosseum; the Pantheon hill; St. Peter's Cathedral; Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Roman Forum.
Combined tours are gaining popularity, including visiting several cities at once - Rome, Florence, Naples or Milan. Summer weekend tours to Italy allow you to combine the sights of Rome and a beach holiday nearby by the sea.
Weekend Tours in Florence
Florence offers excellent sightseeing tours. It is in this city that famous museums of the country are located, in particular, the Uffizi Gallery, which has gathered within its walls a unique collection of paintings. Gastronomic tours will be just as exciting. Event tours offer no less interest, but for this purpose, you need to go to Florence in June.
And, of course, Florence can be a great shopping destination. The numerous boutiques become especially attractive during seasonal sales.
Weekend Tours in Milan
Most often people go to Milan for shopping. Do not forget that it is Milan that is the recognized capital of fashion. To this end, it is recommended to look into the "fashion quadrangle" formed by four shopping streets - Montenapoleone, Spiga, Manzoni and Sant Andrea.
But besides great shopping, Milan offers an excellent "excursion". While in Milan, you need to look into the Duomo Cathedral and be sure to climb to its roof - a separate fee is charged for this. A magnificent panorama of the city opens up from here.
In the vicinity of Milan - just an hour's drive - is the town of Bergamo. When visiting it, special attention should be paid to its ancient center.
