Italy Tours & Holidays

Cruise canals, peruse piazzas, veer towards the Vatican and polish off the perfect pizza.


Italy may be one of Europe's most-visited countries, but finding your way around Venice’s canals, choosing the best place for gelato in Rome, and knowing your agnello from your agnolotti are skills best learnt from locals. Our Italy tours & holidays are all about strolling down cobbled lanes in city backstreets and ancient walled villages in search of la dolce vita. Once here, the opportunities are endless – from tasting balsamic vinegar in a traditional acetaia in Modena and sailing past pastel-hued cliffside villages on the Amalfi Coast, to sampling local wine in Tuscany's vineyards and admiring lesser-known Renaissance art in Florence. One thing's for sure: you won’t be going hungry.

To really appreciate Italy with its rich cultural history, delicious food, superb architecture and fascinating cities would take a lifetime. But, if you do the small group, 8 day ' Highlights of Italy in Winter' tour, you will certainly come away with a deep appreciation of this amazing country.

I’m a solo traveller, so please don’t be afraid, the tour group embraces all. Definitely try to think about booking the really busy tourist attractions in advance. Failing that skip the line tours are an easy way to get a ticket, but more expensive. However having the guide is quite invaluable and informative. I also recommend extra days at beginning and end.

Derrick · Traveled October 2023
This is my seventh Intrepid tour, and it was excellent (the other best two were Turkey and Cuba): it was very well-designed and executed. Gabriella the Tour Leader is top-notch: professional, but more than that, she is highly personable and authentic. Great job, Gabriella!
