Florence & Verona with a view

From Florence train station, make your way to Il Salviatino, ideally located on a hill on the outskirts of the city and just ten minutes by car from the historic centre. 

Spend the next few days exploring Florence's numerous historic landmarks including the Duomo, the Ponte Vecchio and the city's imposing Palazzo Vecchio. You'll also have plenty of time to experience the region's famous cuisine and world-class wines with several vineyards close at hand in the beautiful Tuscan countryside and a number of hands-on cooking classes available throughout the city.

After breakfast, make your way to the train station in time to board your first class rail journey to Verona. 

Wander the streets at your leisure, taking in the city's many historical buildings including the magnificent 14^th century Castelvecchio, the imposing 12^th century Verona Cathedral and Juliet's House - the scene of the famous balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet.
