Full terms and conditions will be available for your review before booking, but we wish to emphasise here that we do not provide travel to and/or from Italy, or any associated costs. We also highly recommend you purchase travel insurance.
​​
Who is this trip best suited for?
​
In short, anyone with an interest in art history and Italian culture!
​
We will be walking as our main mode of transport throughout the cities. Whilst Florence and Venice are very flat cities and we have scheduled breaks in between walking, they do have many uneven surfaces.​ Many of the sites we will be visiting are also multi-level and many lack elevators. You will also be responsible for handling your luggage at all times. For these reasons, a good level of mobility is required.
​
If you are unsure, please contact us and we can help assess whether the tour is suitable for you.

Dietary requirements

If you have any dietary requirements, please let us know during the booking process so we can ensure your needs are able to be met. ​​​
