You ll pass through Basel, which is located at the point where the Swiss, French and German borders meet, before arriving at the picturesque lakeside city of Lucerne, nestled at the foot of the snowcapped Swiss Alps. Here you ll get to see Lucerne s famous landmarks, including Chapel Bridge, the Water Tower, and some wonderfully preserved Baroque and Gothic architecture, followed by some free time to shop or take pictures. Overnight Hotel: 3* in Lucerne or city nearby Hotel Arcade / Holiday Inn Express or similar Sunday Lucerne Milan (B) (400KM) Head south from Lucerne through spectacular Switzerland and into northern Italy, where your first stop will be Milan, fashion capital of the world. Your orientation tour will introduce you to the city s iconic sights, including the vast Gothic cathedral (Duomo). You ll also see the planet s oldest shopping mall, the 19th-century Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, where you can wander among the boutique shops and take lunch in one of the refined cafes.

Hotel: 3* outside Venice Island or city nearby Michelangelo Hotel / Hotel Albatros or similar Monday Venice Rome (B) (550KM) Spend the morning with the local guide as you explore Venice, the most magical of cities. Begin with a waterbus ride to San Marco Island, a memorable crossing of the lagoon that gives you a real taste of the city s charm as you approach the dreamy spires and distinctive waterside buildings. Once on the island you will be led around some of Venice s best-known locations, beginning in the Piazzo with the Basilica di San Marco, a stunning piece of Byzantine architecture. You will also see the legendary Bridge of Sighs, which appears on many a postcard or picture of Venice and connects the old prison to the interrogation rooms in the Doge s Palace. Afterwards you will have a chance to see some traditional Venetian craftwork at close quarters with a demonstration by Murano glassblowers; their exquisite creations make excellent souvenirs. Of course, the ultimate Venice activity is to ride through the warren of waterways on a gondola, and for most people this optional excursion is a must. Step aboard, relax and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Transfer to Rome in the afternoon. Hotel: 3* in Rome or city nearby Idea Hotel Roma Z3 / Hotel Cristoforo Colombo or similar Tuesday Rome Vatican Arrezzo (B) (280 KM) Your day in Rome starts with a visit to the smallest country in the world, The Vatican City, which lies at the heart of the Italian capital.

Alternatively you can choose to add on the optional Sistine Chapel tour to view Michelangelo s famous painted ceiling. Next you will see the famous Trevi Fountain, the lavish Baroque showpiece where people flock to throw coins into the water an action which is said to ensure that you will return to the city again one day. After lunch, take a step even further back in time as you visit Italy s unrivalled Roman relics. Discover the Coliseum, built in AD 72, a highly recommended mustsee destination in Rome. History comes to life as you imagine yourself witnessing gladiatorial combat inside the spectacular amphitheatre, or alternatively you can walk at your leisure around the outside to admire the facade of this ancient wonder. After the Coliseum, get up close to the nearby Arch of Constantine, which dates back to the fourth century AD, then spend some further free time enjoying Rome, sampling the rich and creamy delights of gelato Italian ice cream.
