Italy: Pasta & Piazzas

Start & end in Rome 14 days Up to 20

About this trip

Two weeks moving through Italy at an easy pace, from Rome's piazzas to the lakes and coastline further north.

You'll spend time over coffee and pasta in the places most people only see in photos, then get out and walk the cliff paths of Cinque Terre for a proper change of scenery.

A guided group trip throughout, with your own room each night rather than sharing.

What you'll do

  • Sit with an espresso in one of Rome's piazzas
  • Eat pasta by Lake Como
  • Walk the cliffside paths between the villages of Cinque Terre
  • Take the classic photo propping up the Leaning Tower of Pisa
Good to know
  • Easy pace, suited to those who want culture and scenery without heavy trekking
  • Fully guided throughout with a private room each night
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want insider-level local knowledge and don't mind the party vibe. Think twice if you're budget-conscious or prefer authentic Italian cuisine.

  • Tour guides Daisy and Carolyn consistently deliver insider trivia, curated recommendations, and genuine friendship—not just tour logistics.
  • Extra excursions cost roughly £30 more than listed prices; you'll need significant cash for guides and ATMs aren't always nearby.
  • Provided meals are repetitive basic tomato pasta; the trip emphasizes partying heavily, which won't suit everyone's travel style.
  • Italian timekeeping runs 15-30 minutes late; schedule independent activities well after group activities are supposed to finish.
