Italy

Why Visit Italy With EWT Tours?

Italy is the country most travelers compare every other destination to. It’s where Western art was reinvented, where pasta and pizza were perfected, and where 2,000 years of empire, papacy, and Renaissance left a denser concentration of UNESCO sites than anywhere else on earth.

Rome alone holds the Forum, the Vatican, and the Pantheon within a 30-minute walk. Tuscany delivers Florence’s Renaissance and a countryside that produces some of the world’s great wines. The Amalfi Coast hangs villages off cliffs above the Tyrrhenian Sea. Sicily and Sardinia feel like Mediterranean countries unto themselves. Venice is impossible to compare to anywhere else.

EWT Tours uses Italy as the centerpiece of our Mediterranean grand tour — embarking in Rome, sailing past Sardinia and Genoa to Tuscany, and on through Sicily before crossing to Greece. Our small-group format means restaurant access and itinerary flexibility you won’t find on a 40-person bus tour.
