Italy Tour & Vacation Packages

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 learned from locals. Our Italy tours & vacations 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.

Had a wonderful time hiking in the Dolomites! This trip can be physically challenging but the breathtaking views are worth it. Edoardo the guide was amazing.

Hiking in the Dolomites

Karen · Traveled September 2023
Scenery is beautiful. I had a lot of fun and would recommend it. I am a beginner hiker and found some of it challenging. You will need a moderate level of fitness. There are some steep inclines, loose gravel, long distances, and heat also played a factor. Bring sunscreen, electrolytes, hiking shoes and poles, and have fun!

Cycle Tuscany

Zachary · Traveled September 2023
Cycle Tuscany was everything I expected from Intrepid. Walter and Alice were terrific trip leaders, the itinerary was interesting and the group was fun. I've already booked my next trip in 2024.
