Taste of Italy

12 DAYS 11 NIGHTS

Starting from ₹1,83,000/person

Ah, the taste of Italy! Rome and Florence are indeed culinary treasures, each with its own unique flavors and specialties. In Rome, you must indulge in classics like authentic pasta carbonara, hearty Roman-style pizzas, and creamy gelato. Don't forget to explore the vibrant food markets like Campo de' Fiori or Mercato Testaccio for a taste of local produce and street food. In Florence, you'll be captivated by the rich flavors of Tuscan cuisine. Indulge in the famous bistecca alla fiorentina, a mouthwatering Florentine steak grilled to perfection. Dive into bowls of ribollita, a hearty Tuscan soup, and savor the simplicity of freshly baked focaccia drizzled with olive oil.
And as for the gondolas, while they're not typically associated with Rome or Florence (that's Venice's claim to fame), you can still enjoy a romantic gondola ride along the canals of Venice for a taste of quintessential Italian charm. Imagine gliding through narrow waterways while being serenaded by a gondolier it's an experience you won't forget!
