11 Day Northern Italy Heritage Journey
Your adventure starts in the planning process when a genealogy expert uncovers your family history. As they follow the trail left behind in historic documents, records and photographs, your tour begins to unfold. Begin your journey in the eternal city of Rome founded in 750 BC. Visit the Vatican City and St. Paul’s Basilica. Marvel at the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo's iconic 'the Creation of the World'. Visit the UNESCO-listed Colosseum dating back 2000 years and imagine Gladiators battling in front of 80,000 spectators.

Next head to Florence and travel back in time to the Renaissance period. Spot the massive 13th-15th century Florence Cathedral. Set out to the surrounding countryside to discover the beauty of Siena, San Gimignano, and the Chianti countryside before admiring the sunset on the Tuscan hills. Immerse yourself in Langhe's ancestral villages and get a feel for local life with a visit to a local weekly market to taste regional specialties .
