About this trip
Five days across Italy by train, based in just two cities: Rome and Florence. You get proper time in both rather than a rush through a dozen stops.
In Rome you cover the big three — Colosseum, Roman Forum, Vatican — plus a day out to Villa Adriana and Villa D'Este for a change of pace among ancient ruins and Renaissance gardens. From Florence, day trips take you to Pisa for the Leaning Tower and to Cinque Terre for its coastal villages.
It's a straightforward mix of history, art and a bit of coastline, with train travel doing the legwork between bases.
