VATICAN

Geographically the Vatican is in Rome, but in terms of government and national status the Vatican is an entirely separate entity. The Vatican City State is a sovereign state separate from Italy, according to the Lateran Treaties signed between the state of Italy and the Holy See on February 11th 1929. The Vatican State has its own Government and national characteristics such as a flag and an anthem and also its own military force: The Pontifical Swiss Guard. The Vatican Museum & the Sistine Chapel are two of the most important attractions in Rome. For sure the most crowded. After Pope Francis the number of visitors skyrocketed. We suggest to schedule the visits in the afternoon and avoid Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Monday is after Sunday, when the Vatican Museum is closed; on Wednesday there is also the Papal Audience; Saturday is definitely the most crowded day. It is possible to arrange a private visit any day except Sunday after 6pm. For an evening tour, the Museum is open on Friday.

Minimum time to spend in the Museum is 3hrs It’s impossible to skip all the rooms and arrive shortly to Sistine Chapel since there is a route to follow. To visit the Museum, a reservation is necessary. You may suggest to your customers to explore more the Vatican and its culture. We have designed a few interesting experiences combining the Museum with the Vatican City, with the Gardens or the Necropolis. The Vatican is a State, with offices, shops, really peculiar culture.

ITALYTRAVELMAKERS Jewish Places

ITALYTRAVELMAKERS Jewish Places corroborated by their humble status as freedmen, slaves, servants, or prostitutes. They bear traditional Jewish names such as Iesus, Ionas, Maria, and Martha. However there were also more affluent Jews like a certain Fabius Eupor, who bears the title princes libertinorum, or a certain Youdaikos, a wine merchant. It seems, according to epigraphic evidence, that the Jews took an active part in the municipal life of the city. One of the houses excavated, and called by the excavators “Casa degli ebrei” (N. 6, Reg. VIII, Ins. 6), exhibits wall paintings, which depicts the Judgment of Solomon. However it is possible that

THE 10 MOST IMPORTANT JEWISH PLACES TO VISIT

1. Ghetto of Rome

The Jewish community in Rome is the oldest in the Diaspora. The first known synagogue in Rome was at No. 14 Vicolo dell’Atleta. I In 1555 Pope Paul IV established the Ghetto: from the Tiber at Tiber Island to the Ponte Quattro Capi, Via Portico d’Ottavia, via Ottavia, Piazza delle Cinque Scole. Rome even had a Jewish mayor, in Ernesto Nathan (1907-13) who shared liberal ideas with Giuseppe Mazzini. In 1948 when the state of Israel was established, Roman Jews walked under the Arch of Titus, which goes back to early history, fulfilling the promise to do so when Israel was free.

2. Venetian Ghetto

In 1516 Venice’s ruling council confined all the Jews in a small area not far from today’s train station, where there had been ghettos, or foundries. The gates were locked at night, and restrictions were placed on Jewish economic activities. Jews were only allowed to operate pawn shops and lend money, trade in textiles, and practice medicine. They were permitted to rent but not to own real estate. Although restrictive, the Ghetto also provided a safe haven for Jews from the violence and aggression against non-Christians in an economically and politically strained Venice of the early sixteenth century. Despite these severe limitations, the Jewish community prospered in Venice, and they received better treatment there than in many other European cities at this time.

3. Ghetto and Libray of Modena

The city of Modena offers visitors the chance to discover the secrets of its Jewish past. Although the Jewish ghetto was almost completely transformed in 1903, hints of it remain for visitors with a keen eye including the original hinges of one of the four gates which closed off the neighborhood and a street of low houses that have kept their original medieval structure. Jewish Jews established in Modena during the 15th century under the Dukes of Este. They were allowed to participate in different activities and professions. In the 17th century, the Jews from Ferrara joined the Modena’s community after their city became a Papal state. The first Ghetto was

established, because of Pope pressure, in 1638. In spite of this, three synagogues (Italian, German, and Spanish rites) continued to function and the ghetto of Modena eventually became a hub for Hebrew and Kabalistic studies, which attracted scholars from all over the Diaspora. The Este library houses important Hebrew manuscripts, 11 of which were acquired by the Duke of Este in 1573. There is also a collection of Ketubot, scrolls from the Book of Esther, as well as antique books.

The site of the synagogue in medieval Pitigliano is where the ghetto was finally set up in 1622 by the Medici. The Jewish cemetery of Pitigliano is also a curious find and worth the visit for its unusual tombstones. At one time Pitigliano was a haven for those wishing to avoid the ghettos of Florence and Rome, although in 1622 the Medicis established a ghetto here as well. In spite of this segregation, it remained a lively rural Jewish center which was sometimes dubbed “little Jerusalem”.

4. Livorno

7. Casale Monferrato, Piedmont

Livorno is with Pisa one of two Tuscan cities who never had a ghetto. The Medici Family established Livorno to be a lively sea outlet for the commercial center of Pisa. Ferdinand I de’ Medici invited Portuguese Marranos to live here in 1593, offering them freedom to trade and worship as well as protection from the Inquisition The original synagogue was long considered one of the most splendid religious monuments of the European diaspora and was used as a model for the synagogue in Amsterdam, which still exists. The community opted for a modern structure to replace the original one, yet it incorporated elements from the old building which juxtapose the modernity of the structure itself. The cemetery dated 1840 is worth of a visit for its special atmosphere and dated 1840. Livorno also became a center of Hebrew printing in Italy. Jedidiah Gabbai setup the first Hebrew press in 1659 and published a midrash on the Torah.

5. Sabbioneta, Mantova

Sabbioneta was built in the 16th century by Vespasiano Gonzaga and laid out as an ideal Renaissance city. Jews lived in Sabbioneta from the town’s early days — even before it was laid out in its present form. There was a ghetto here, and the town developed into an important center of Hebrew printing. Sabbioneta (including the Synagogue) and nearby Mantova (Mantua) were included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 2008.

6. Pitigliano, South Tuscany

Pitigliano is known as “Little Jerusalem” for its bustling Jewish life until the mid-19th century, as well as the shape and color of its hills.

Jews came to settle in Casale Monferrato in 1492 after their expulsion from Spain. Here they practiced money-lending, although they were also merchants and had the monopoly for the sale of playing cards and the tender for salt. In 1643 they won tender to supply wheat to the French army in Casale Monferrato as well as the construction of fortifications. In 1724, a ghetto was established here by the Savoy family.

8. The Giudecca of Ortigia, Siracusa, Sicily

Syracuse had been under the control of the Greeks, the Romans, the Byzantines and the Arabs, but was always home to a hwealthy Jewish population. Jews were was in Syracusa till the Spanish decreed their total expulsion in 1492. Syracuse’s Jewish population had a history of almost 2000 years in the city, and when they were forced to leave, many assumed that they’d soon be able to return. And So they decided to hide their holy baths by covering them with earth. The concealment was so successful that centuries would pass before the mikvah was rediscovered. About fifteen years ago, while digging into the basement underneath the Hotel Algilà for maintenance works, the ancient Hebrew Baths were found. Syracuse’s mikvah is thought to be the largest and most ancient in Europe, still in pristine condition.

this painting actually in fact depicts a tale from Ancient Egypt, mediated by Hellenistic Alexandrine Art, and not a biblical episode. As the painting clearly caricatures the subjects, depicting them as pygmies, the owner was not Jew. An interesting graffito (Reg. IX, Ins. I, n. 26) read “Sodom Gomor.” It is possible that it was written during the eruption of Vesuvius. Another graffito bears the word Cherem in Latin, which may correspond either to herem (ban) or kerem (vineyard)” ( source: jewishvirtuallibrary.org)

10. Florence

Jewish presence in Florence has been traced back to Roman times. In the 1430’s, the Medici family officially invited Jews to the city to act as moneylenders. At that time, Jews lived opposite the city center, across the Arno River which divides the city. While life for the community of Florence was relatively easy under the Medici family, this all changed in 1570 when Cosimo de’ Medici agreed to create ghettos in Florence and Siena in order to gain the title of Grand Duke from Pope Pius V.

GREEK ORTHODOX PLACES

Bari

The basilica was built between 1087 and 1197, during the Italo-Norman domination of Apulia, the area previously occupied by the Byzantine Catapan of which Bari was the seat. Its foundation is related to the stealing of some of the relics of St. Nicholas from the saint’s original shrine in Myra, in what is now Turkey. When Myra passed into the hands of the Saracens, some saw it as an opportunity to move the saint’s relics to a safer location. According to the justifying legend, the saint, passing by the city on his way to Rome, had chosen Bari as his burial place. There was great competition for the relics between Venice and Bari. The latter won and the relics were carried away off under the noses of the lawful Greek custodians and their Muslim masters. and On May 9, 1087 they were safely placed at in Bari.

Rome, Monastery of St Mary, Grottaferrata

The Italo-Byzantine Monastery of St Mary of Grottaferrata, 20 kilometers south of Rome, was founded by St Nilus of Rossano in 1004, fifty years before the division between the Roman Catholic and the Orthodox Church, and remains to this day there are the remains of an enclave of Byzantine tradition under the Roman jurisdiction.

Gerace, Calabria

The name of the city derives from the Greek ierax (“sparrow hawk“). According to a legend, the inhabitants of the coast, fleeing from a Saracen attack in 915 CE, were led by a sparrow hawk to the mountains commanding the area of Locri, and here they founded the city. Archeological findings showed that the area was in fact inhabited since the Neolithic Age; also traces of Sicel presence have been found. Later, even during the highest splendour of Locri, the hill was inhabited and was later the site of a Roman military garrison. After the Byzantine reconquest of Italy (6th century), the town became an administrative, military and religious capital under the name of Santa Ciriaca. Here, there is the little church of San Giovanello ( Little John), a charming and small building built during X century.

San Giovanni Theristus, Calabria

Calabria was part of the Byzantine Empire until the 11th century. A Greek monk, St. John Theristus, operated in the Stilaro Valley during the 9th century. His aghiasma (“holy font”) became a popular center of local pilgrimage, and here a Byzantine monastery was founded in the 11th century.

Ravenna The Baptistry of Neon is a religious building

Venice, San Giorgio dei Greci

The “Basilica of San Vitale” is a church in Ravenna, Italy, and one of the most important examples of early Christian Byzantine art and architecture in Europe. The building is styled as an “ecclesiastical basilica” in the Roman Catholic Church, though it is not of an architectural basilica form. It is one of the eight Ravenna structures inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

“Saint George of the Greeks” is a church in the sestiere (neighborhood) of Castello. It was the center of the Scuola dei Greci, the Confraternity of the Greeks in Venice. For centuries, despite the close ties of Venice to the Byzantine world, the Greek Orthodox rite was not permitted in Venice. In 1498, the Greek community gained the right to found the Scuola de San Nicolò dei Greci, a confraternity which aided members of that community. In 1539, after protracted negotiations, the papacy allowed the construction of the church of San Giorgio, financed by a tax on all ships from the Orthodox world.

Trieste

Saint Spyridon Church is a Serbian Orthodox church in Trieste, Italy. The Orthodox community in Trieste dates back to 1751 when Empress Maria Theresa allowed free practice of religion for Orthodox Christians., This prompted immigration of Serbian traders from Herceg Novi, Trebinje and Sarajevo to Trieste.[1] In 1781, the community split into two. The first was the Greek community and the second, from which there is today’s Serbian parish, was the community which embraced the Orthodox South Slavic nations.

Milan

is an important monument of Byzantine art near Ravenna, Italy. When the UNESCO inscribed eight Ravenna sites on the World Heritage List, it cited this basilica as “an outstanding example of the early Christian basilica in its purity and simplicity of its design and use of space and in the sumptuous nature of its decoration”.

ITALY BY CAR

Visit Italy by Car is a great idea, specially if you want to explore a region and discover the thousands of villages worth a stop. Italian roads are basically in very good shape and safe.

There are many highways connecting North to South and West to East as well as very comfortable Regional Roads. Driving in Italy is easy but there is a list of things to consider. 1. Best Regions for a Fly & Drive Trentino, Piedmont, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna, Marche, Veneto ( except Venice), Apulia, Sicily These areas are pointed by thousands of small beautiful villages, castles, wineries, farm houses. Going around by car offers autonomy and flexibility. 2. Critical Areas The big cities, first: Rome, Milan, Florence, Naples have a lots of restricted areas and it’s not easy to drive. We do not suggest to plan to drive in some areas where roads are very narrow or cars are not permitted: Sorrento and Amalfi Coast, Cinqueterre… 3. Islands Cars are not allowed in Capri, Ischia, Eolian Islands and on most small Italian islands. 4. Where to spend the night When by car, you can also suggest to overnight in small boutique hotels out of the big city, very often real jewels and usually with good prices. 5.

Drivers For Taxi Drivers a tip of around 5-10% would be ideal, although this depends on the city. A water-taxi in Venice usually receives a tip of 5%, since the service is already so expensive. If the service is prepaid, 3/5 € is perfect for a transfer, according to the distance. For a half day disposal, we suggest 8/10 € while for a full day disposal a minimum of 10 € is required. For a coach driver in a group tour, a daily tip of 2€ per pax is a good tip. At Hotel a tip for the room maid is appreciated, 10€ or more depending on the number of nights and rooms. For the porterage 1 or 2€ per piece of luggage.

TRANSFER INFORMATION

SEATERS

Sit-in Restaurants In many restaurant, the bill comes with the item “servizio”, that’s about 15% of the value. Some people think that the service charge goes to the people who wait your table, unfortunately in the majority of cases it goes straight to the owner.The idea of a “standard” tip of 1520%, doesn’t exist in Italy. Italians don’t tip that much, even when they do leave a small token, and italian waiters don’t expect that much. We recommend to tip only if good service is received. In this case, it is customary to leave a 5-10% tip.

Tour Guides and Tour Escort For tour guides it depends on the kind of service provided, but again typical 5-10% is sufficient. For prepaid services, an average of 2,5€ daily per pax is required.

Emergency Telephone Number For Medical Emergency dial 118. For other emergency dial 112 ( it works like 911) Healthcare and Medical Assistance Tourist requiring urgent medical care should go to the nearest hospital emergency room (airports and many train stations also have medical teams and first aid facilities).

Electrical Appliances The electrical current in Italy is AC – the cycle is 50Hz 220 V. A tourist carrying electrical appliances to Italy should have a transformer, either obtained before leaving your country or bought at an electrical appliance shop in Italy.

ITALYTRAVELMAKERS Tuscany

ITALYTRAVELMAKERS Tuscany Piazza and Palazzo dei Priori, built during the 13th century and the Pinacoteca - housed in the Minucci-Solaini Palace - are absolutely worth a visit. Walk the narrow streets of Volterra and don’t forget to stop and visit the Etruscan walls outside the city – for a fantastic view of the valley and its rolling hills. A note must be made of the local contemporary artist Mauro Staccioli and the twenty sculpture installations set in the landscape around and in the city. Staccioli’s message as an artist is to rediscover the identity of the country ( Italy) where its past roots have designed villages, towns, and contributed to the development of society.

FOCUS: TUSCANY

Located in central Italy, Tuscany stretches from the West coast along the Mediterranean sea to the Appenine mountain range, on the border with Liguria and Emilia Romagna regions to the North and with Umbria and Lazio regions to the South. Tuscany attracts visitors for many reasons: the art, the archeology and local crafts, the amazing countryside and typical hilltop villages, the long stretch of beaches, nature, the food and wine and the captivating lifestyle. Tuscany is a region to

visit and to return to because that is what you will want to do every time you leave. Florence is always top of the list, the cradle of the Renaissance, the city where the Medici family reigned and where they nourished the spirits of those artists who left the generations to follow with an extraordinary collection of works of art one can admire today in the city museums. The city itself is enjoyable just walking the streets of the historic center with its beautiful Cathedral and

churches, the palaces and piazzas, the covered market and of course the Ponte Vecchio bridge. On the list of places to visit in Tuscany are the città d’arte (the smaller art cities): Siena, Pisa, Arezzo, Cortona, San Gimignano and Lucca are all strikingly beautiful. The more you come to know the region, the more extraordinary Tuscany appears: cycling, cooking classes, shopping, thermal baths, fun for kids, the perfect place for family reunions and destination weddings!

Chianti

The Chianti Classico region is probably the most well known area of Tuscany and the region that attracts most of the visitors to the countryside. The Chianti Classico region are not clearly defined but in general extends over the provinces of Florence and Siena, covering all of the area between the two cities and extending to the east toward the Valdarno and to the west to the Val d’Elsa. This is the area where the Chianti Classico wine is produced. The Chianti wine region actually extends further beyond the two cities, all around Florence and even toward Arezzo, Pistoia and Montepulciano.

Apulia , “Puglia” known also as “the spur of the italian boot”, is a charming region located in the southern part of the Italian Peninsula. It’s suspended among nature, history, tradition, tastes, spirituality and marvelous beaches that will delight every traveler. Art Cities & History

The history of Apulia dates back to ancient times when the southern peninsula was still referred to as Calabria. Due to this long history, Apulia is one of the few regions with archeological findings dating back to 1000 B.C. when the Italic and Illyrian peoples settled in the area. Later on when the Greeks settled the region, Greek influences began spreading and replacing native Apulian culture. However, despite numerous reforms, the characteristic Apulian architecture with Greek, Norman, Arab and Pisan influences from the 11th to 13th centuries can still be deciphered in public buildings, castles, and churches. In this region you can find innumerable artistic treasures such as the Romanesque cathedrals, the Swabian and Aragonese castles and the Leccese Baroque Geographically, this region is characterized by succeeding broad plains and low lying hills. The only mountainous areas are the Monti Dauni and the Gargano Promontory, the most extensive National Park in Italy, which encloses a tract of vast biodiversity. Its naturalistic landscapes and pathways allow the exploration and observation of rich plant life, where many animal and bird species live. Numerous touristic places such as Vieste and Peschici run along the Gargano coast, offering vacations that focus on nature, culture, and the sea. Gargano holds two notable zones of faith: Monte Sant’Angelo, the oldest and most important religious center for Gargano, which unites numerous sanctuaries from Spain to Jerusalem; San Giovanni Rotondo is the city of the Holy Father Sanctuary, and not far off is San Marco in Lamis: preferred by pilgrims as a “pit-stop” on the road to Monte Sant’Angelo.

the discovery of its rich heritage; and the modern city. One of the most attractive treasures of this city is the “ Basilica di San Nicola”, a wonderful example of Apulian Romanesque architecture, where the holy relics of the famous saint are kept. Inland from the city of Trani we find “Castel del Monte” an unrivalled masterpiece of Medieval architecture commissioned by Frederick II of Swabia. Further inland, where time seems to stand still, you can find the breathtaking landscape of the Murge Plateau: wide open spaces, olive and almond trees and vineyards paint the vast expanse of the plateau. Furthermore, in the 11th century the coastal cities (Trani, Barletta and Molfetta) came back to life through commercial ties with the Orient. A gorgeous land borders the southern part of the valley: this is the Itria Valley also known for fairy-tale landscape of “Trulli”, conical buildings that symbolize Apulia and unique in the world. Alberobello is known for its characteristic coneshaped dwellings and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Likewise, Locorotondo is a whitewashed village on a rocky spur overlooking the marvelous scenery of the valley, which turns into an explosion of colors and scents during springtime. Near the coast of Brindisi, the beautiful city of Ostuni offers tourists sandy beaches lapped by the clear water of the Adriatic Sea. To the North of Ostuni lies one of the most interesting natural areas in the region: the WWF Oasis of Torre Guaceto. One of the most intriguing attractions you should visit is the majestic Cathedral, built in baroque style. Also striking, in a more sophisticated style, is Lecce, a town famed for its baroque beauty: all golden stone and elegant seventeenth-century architecture with riots of cherubs and foliage.

Gallipoli, a fishing village on the coast in southern Apulia, is also a very interesting city to visit. Its name comes from the Greek Kallipolis meaning beautiful city. Gallipoli has a good old town built on a limestone island and connected to the mainland by a 16th century bridge.Another true pearl is Nard, with a piazza considered to be the most beautiful in Salento.

The Six UNESCO Areas of this part of Piedmont

This zone was classified by UNESCO covering

Piedmont is located in the Northwest corner of Italy and is framed by the beautiful Alp mountain range to the North and West while the Southern borders with the so called Marittime Alps dividing it from the Liguria region. When we speak of Piedmont its fine wines come to mind: Barolo, Barbera, Barbaresco, Dolcetto

to mention a few. But the land is also known for its elegant capital, Torino, for its beautiful landscape of the lake region along the West coast of Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta, for the endless views of the vineyards that cover the Langhe and Roero region and for the alpine mountain chain. Interesting to know that the Slow Food movement

was founded here. Historically Piedmont is known for being the place from where most of the important events of the unification of Italy took place or departed from and the home of the first Capital of unified Italy in 1861.

Where to Go and what to see

this town you have one of the most amazing views of the area over the “ sea” of vineyards.

Verbania – Is largest town on Lake Maggiore, a resort with nice hotels and also a good base for visiting the area.

Turin is one of the cities that draws the highest number of visitors to Piedmont every year. Many religious pilgrims reach the city to visit the cathedral of San Giovanni Battista: this is where the holy shroud is conserved. The city also hosts some important museums ( such as the Egyptian Museum) as well as beautiful and elegant palaces, great shopping and small food and tasting cafes and shops (that offer products such as coffee, chocolate, wines, cheese and biscuits). The Palazzo Reale – Royal Palace where one can admire during the visit, the interiors of the royal apartments and stop for a coffee in the Caffetteria – a cafè that has come to life in the amazing setting of the old Frutteria of the Palace. The Palazzo Carignano that hosts the Museo del Risorgimento Italiano – where one can lean more about the period of the unification of Italy and visit the first Italian Parliament. The Piazza San Carlo – heart of the city – is almost the city’s outdoor living room with its traditional and historic cafes lined along the piazza. There are several renowned ski resorts in the surrounding mountains and one of the beauties of this region is the ever presence of the mountains in the distance of any landscape. In addition to the capital do put these destinations, towns and villages on your visiting list: Alba – a wine capital for the region with ancient Roman origin. Many shops are dedicated to local products such as wine, truffle, cheese but the city is also pleasant to visit and just enjoy the atmosphere. Outside the center you will find the large Ferrero plant where many locals are employed. The company is famous for being the inventors and producers of Nutella spread. La Morra – The position of La Morra is unbeatable – this small village is perched above Barolo and its hills are covered with vineyards that seem designed by an artist – as you can imagine from

Asti – Is one of the main cities of Piemonte and is the city has some very interesting museums & palaces open to vistors: the Palazzo Alfieri ( home of the prominent Alfieri family – Vittorio Alfieri a well known tragedy playwriter who was born here in 1749, The Roman Domus, the Museum and Cript of Saint Anastasio,Palazzo Mazzetti and the Palazzo Civico are just a few of these. Here in Asti, every year in September, the Palio di Asti takes place: it’s Italy’s oldest palio race. A city museum is also dedicated to this popular historic event. Barolo – Very small village dominated by a powerful castle – today seat of the wine museum of the Barolo. The narrow streets are dotted with wine and food shops and an important winemaker of the area has recently opened a larger tasting shop right in the heart of the village. The views from the road surrounding Barolo are a must stop for a picture. Acqui Terme – The first thing you note are the city fountains that pour natural hot and steaming waters, Acqui dates back to Ancient Roman times. Today the city center is a lovely place for a walk, shopping, dining and just enjoying at leisure. Stresa – It’s the most famous resort town on the lake – with its many hotels, restaurants, cafes , it’s a great base for visiting the lake. Public boat transportation is available to reach the Borromeo islands – each a special gem. The Isola Bella ( beautiful island) offers spectacular gardens and a 360° view of the entire lake and surroundings. Near Stresa are two beautiful villas with magnificent gardens open to the visitor – Villa Taranto and the Villa Pallavicino. One can also reach the nearby Lake Orta , a smaller but very romantic jewel. With Stresa as your base, you can also visit the Lombardy side of the lake. Hiking and easy walks are very popular all around the lake area.

over 10,000 hectares and includes numerous municipalities and more than six specific areas. First of all we find the Langa of Barolo, which extends in the Southern part of Piedmont. It is in these lands that the the famous Barolo, a wine of great structure and longevity is produced. Wine for meditation as it is defined. Then we have the area of the hills of Barbaresco, which includes mainly Nebbiolo vineyards, producing the long-aging red wine called Barbaresco. The area, which includes the quaint villages of Barbaresco and Neive, is dominated by the medieval tower of Barbaresco, overlooking the Tanaro River. The third area is the one surrounding the Grinzane Cavour Castle, which is located in one of the most inspiring spots of the Langa, 5 km from Alba, famous not only for wine, but also for the beautiful castle in which every year an auction is held for white truffles. From many view points of the area the Castle stands out proudly in the distance.

Verbania Como

Stresa

VALLE D’AOSTA

The Canavese Valley – North of Torino, and South of the Val D’Aosta region: this valley stretches along the Alpine range and is possibly less known but a true off the beaten path destination. Noble palaces such as the Castello di Agliè are beautiful examples here of the places where the Italian monarchy and nobility lived and hosted magnificent balls and events. To the Northeast towards Biella, tucked in the steep mountains is UNESCO world heritage site : the Oropa Sanctuary.

What to see

The ski resorts of Piedmont have always been well-known. Every Winter season Italians, other Europeans, and visitors from farther away come to enjoy Winter sports among these slopes. Summer travelers can enjoy hiking which is a great way to see the region. Wine and food enthusiasts will have a fantastic time tasting local food specialties throughout the region especially during the truffle and the wine harvest seasons, or Turin’s chocolate festival. Some of the best-known wines from Piedmont are also some of the best-known Italian wines – Barolo, Barbaresco, Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Dolcetto. Piemonte is known for its tasty cheese production and the hazelnuts which are a DOP cultivation. But there’s another food-related export from Piedmont: I’m talking about Nutella – the chocolate-hazelnut flavored creamy spread which is also known as gianduia in Piedmont, but it’s name throughout the world is Nutella. Piedmont has several attractions tied to its royal family, the House of Savoy, and its status as the original capital of Italy. These include the Palazzo Reale and Castello del Valentino in Turin, the Palazzina di Caccia in Stupinigi, and the

Canelli is another UNESCO World Heritage site lists, mainly cultivating Moscato Bianco. This vine produces the aromatic sparkling Asti wine, one of the most exported Italian white wines abroad. Returning to the lands classified by UNESCO we find Nizza Monferrato, an area of dissemination and cultivation of the Barbera grape. Here we also find important examples dedicated to wine culture, including the Bersano Museum. The town of Nizza Monferrato, is considered the “capital” of Barbera, and outstanding example of a “villanova” of the Middle Ages. The last territory part of the UNESCO World Heritage list is the Monferrato of Infernot. This is the area of the Basso Monferrato where we find the “infernot” - those deep, old cellars dug several meters directly in a particular rock similar to tuff (the Pietra da Cantoni). The original owners and builders of these wineries, although they did not have extensive knowledge of building or geology, created these perfect works that are beautiful to visit.

Only boat, public:

This is the cheapest solution and of course not the most comfortable. In any arrival point, there is a public boat available. The company who provides the service from Pier & Airport is Alilaguna. The cost for a ticket from Airport or Pier to Venice is € 15. The company who provides the service from Station & Piazzale Roma (or any point in the city) is ACTV. The cost from Station or Piazzale Rome to any point in the city is € 7.50 ( valid 75min) or you can buy a OneDay pass at € 20, Two days Pass at € 30. The ticket price includes also one piece of luggage. Boats are very frequent from 7am to 8pm. Nighttime service is available but not so frequent as during the day. From Pier/Airpot there is a boat every 30min. In town there are more rides. We can provide these tickets with a service fee.

From any arrival point, you can also book a private motorboat. The customer is provided with a map and a reference number. Once he/she has arrived in the Airport/Pier/Station, he/she needs to follow the route signed on the map til the embarkament point. To board, just show the Confirmation Number. The rate includes max 2 bags per pax. This service is very comfortable and not expensive. But we suggest for seasoned and very active travelers. Often people are not able to find the embarkment point by themselves.

Turn a mere transfer from the Station into an enchanting experience

When you board a “motoscafo” from the station to your hotel, the shortest way is not the most beautiful. Arriving in Venice is an unforgettable experience if you cross the Gran Canal. But you need one extra hour. For afternoon arrivals we suggest to book a transfer + 1 hr Gran Canal Cruise to turn a mere transfer into an enchanting experience.

Only in the airport, from the terminal to the embarkment, you can add a transfer by car. Alternatively, the customer will use the moving walkways to reach the embarkment.

The most critical thing to understand about Venice is that it is an island, or better, a clutch of 118 islands, perched in the middle of a blue-green lagoon. Until the early 1930s this assemblage of islands was completely surrounded by water and accessible only by boat; thanks to the 2.8 mile causeway that was constructed mid-20th century, you can arrive today by car, bus, motor coach, or train directly into Venezia Santa Lucia Station. A number of water transportation options remain as well, including ACTV public transit, a private transfer company called Alilaguna, serving the airport and the port, and the private water taxi, or motoscafo. The way you can arrange a transfer may vary highly.

A driver guide is: • an expert of the territory • person able to introduce the history, the culture and food in a specific territory • is a local, the best gateway to local culture

From Rome to Sorrento From Rome to Florence From Florence to Siena From Rome to Siena From Naples to Apulia From Florence to Venice From Venice to Como

The best way to discover Italy is with somebody who knows Italy, loves Italy and is happy to share his experience with you.

Hiring a driver guide is also convenient because you can save the cost of a normal guide. A driver guide cannot access Museums or Archeological sites but it’s the perfect solution to cover large territories when you visit 2, 3 or 4 villages and do not hire a guide in each place. Where Italy Travel Makers suggest to have a driver guide: • Tuscany countryside • Amalfi Coast • Piedmont Villages • Sicily villages • Campania Wines’land

Villa Soglia. The Villa is located on the Amalfi Coast. Built in the early decades of the eighteenth century, Villa Soglia is a former noble residence that belonged to the baronial family -Sarno Prignano, built on the remains of the sixteenth-century palace of Ferrante Sanseverino, former Prince of Salerno. The estate is one of the most significant buildings projected by the architect Ferdinando Sanfelice, a pupil of the more famous Luigi Vanvitelli. It was built in neoclassical style of Baroque inspiration in which all of their glory, works of art, paintings and furniture dating all the way back to the historical period stand out. In 1996 the palace came back to life, since it had been neglected for too many years. It was by the wish and dedication of the Soglia family that, after a long and detailed restoration work, the villa returned to its former splendor and magic, with particular care and attention to leave the romantic “flavor” of the past intact, harmonizing, in a masterly way, a modern and contemporary setting. The Villa, enriched by tailored gardens, can host cocktails and buffets, standing on three floors, each of which opens the vision to screenplays and different scenes and ambiance. Its rich and refined salons offer ample space for receptions and meetings, while the two rooms used for the banquet, respond perfectly to logistical needs of each scheduled event all wrapped up in an atmosphere of rare and ancient splendor. The service, while maintaining the old tradition, offers a high-class cuisine as a result of careful research and a modern recipe of ancient tastes. The Cuisine. Our Cuisine certifies a high level result, guaranteed by the quality of the raw materials which are skillfully used to create and recreate authentic and refined flavors.

Inclusions Inclusions

Home of the Sistine Chapel and Raphael rooms, this Museum is undoubtedly one of the symbols of Western culture and a unique site to appreciate the genius of artists like Michelangelo, Raffaello, Bernini, Giotto and many others. At the end of this visit, enter St. Peter’s cathedral and visit the most important church of Christianity. Continue the day visiting Borgo Pio, an ancient quarter of Rome around the Vatican, so interesting to discover the everyday life in Vatican City and its people. Stop for lunch in a beautiful cloister, as seen in “The Great Beauty” movie, awarded with an Oscar 2014. End the tour in Castel S. Angelo, an icon of the city, to discover an incredible panorama of Rome with its river. Also known as The Mausoleum of Hadrian, it was built as a tomb for Emperor Hadrian and, over the centuries, used for different purposes, from defence fortress and dungeon to Renaissance residence and, today, museum and venue for cultural and social events. Different uses have also led to significant alterations and expansions on the original structure, creating a complex network of basements, cells, rooms, loggias, stairways and courtyards.

The second Tuscan Villa estate is home to the noble family who lives there to this today. The estate is comprised of hectares of vineyards, olive groves, pastures and woodland.

MILAN Best of Milan Visit the best of Milan with Last Supper & Duomo inside Start the visit with a walking tour of Milan. Follow your fluent English-speaking guide as they lead you around the city, covering the most iconic sights and some you may not have thought to visit on your own. We’ll visit Milan Duomo where Skip the Line Access gets us straight inside to admire one of Italy’s most memorable churches. We’ll see another architectural wonder at the Medieval Sforzesco Castle, which your guide will explain from the outside. Along the way we’ll pass through the cobbled streets of the Brera district where you’ll find the heart of Milan’s social life. A sure highlight of any visit to Milan is da Vinci’s fresco, The Last Supper. In the interest of preserving this beautiful work, only one group is allowed to enter the room at a time, where they have 15 minutes alone. As a result of this limitation, Last Supper tickets can be impossible to secure, with pre-reserved slots often selling out months in advance and general access lines stretching for hours.

Lake Como with Bellagio & Lugano Enjoy Como and its lake with a taste of Switzerland This day trip from Milan covers the most interesting sites near the city, with the stunning scenery of the Alps. The tour departs from a central location in Milan, easy to reach early in the morning. Surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery that changes year-round like a moving painting, Lake Como has been Italy’s top holiday destination for centuries. Once upon a time the expensive houses that line the pristine lakeside were owned by opera singers and performers from the stages of La Scala, but today they are owned by notable actors and famous musicians. We’ll enjoy a relaxed boat tour of the lake as your expert local guide points out the holiday homes of Richard Branson, Matthew Bellamy of Muse, and George Clooney of multiple blockbuster movies. Next we head to beautiful Bellagio where you’ll have enough free time to explore the picture-perfect town on your own. Then it is back aboard our private coach for a beautiful drive through the mountains towards our next stop of the day – Lake Lugano. We’ll cross the Swiss border to get to this striking city - one the most popular destinations in all of Switzerland. Known as the “Monte Carlo of Switzerland” and nestled at the foot of the Alps, the town of Lugano is blessed with a stunning backdrop of its vast lake and imposing (often snowcapped) mountains. One of the country’s top tourist destinations you can often spot celebrities and famous athletes and entertainers walking amongst the crowd.

Pompei & Wine Tasting

Enjoy Amalfi Coast

Visit Pompei and enjoy a lunch with wine tasting on the Vesuvio Volcano

Amalfi is the main town of the coast on which it is located, named Costiera Amalfitana, and it is today an important tourist destination together with other towns of the same coast, such as Positano, Ravello. Amalfi is included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Conca dei Marini was founded by the ancient Romans, around the year 500 bC, like many of the other towns on the Amalfi Coast. In Amalfi, enjoy a light lunch based on local food. Not far from Amalfi, there’s Ravello, town that has been historically a destination for artists, musicians, and writers, including Richard Wagner who composed here some operas. Ravello is also famous for its villas, such as Villa Cimbrone, dating from at least the 11th century AD (The villa is now a hotel, and the gardens are open to the public) and Villa Rufolo unique in terms of architectural and decorative, which has never failed to inspire surprise and amazement of those travelers who for various reasons have gone here over the centuries.

Discover Pompeii then continue to a characteristic farmhouse located on the Volcano Vesuvio for a great experience. The most famous archaeological site in Italy is Pompei, destroyed by the eruption of the Vesuvius in 79 b.C. Visiting Pompei is an unforgettable experience: it was an important commercial center and today, nearly 2,000 years later, offer visitors the opportunity to see how a city was at the time, because the lava allowed to the city to holds up to us. One of the most important seats to visit is Villa dei Misteri, built in the first half of the 1th century b.C., with its frescoes depicting the initiation to the Dionysian Mysteries. At the end, reach Sorrentino winery. Here the grapes take advantage of the rich soil, full of minerals erupted by the volcano. Taste the wines produced locally and have a delicious lunch enjoying the fabulous view of bay of Naples with Capri, Ischia and Sorrento.
