Itinerary

We will meet at the airport at 5.00am for our KM Malta Airlines flight departing at 7.00am and arriving in Rome Fiumicino Airport at 8.35am. We shall spend the afternoon in the city centre of Rome, where we later proceed to our 4-star Hotel Grand Plaza in Montecatini, popular for its wonderful scenery, thermal baths, and the Chianti wine.

Today’s full-day optional excursion takes us to another part of Tuscany, visiting Volterra and San Gimignano. This city of Volterra conserves a medieval aspect, not only for the 12th century city walls, but also because of the urban layout with narrow streets, palaces, tower houses and churches. We drive to San Gimignano, probably the most famous small town in Italy, which dominates the Val d’Elsa with its breath-taking skyline bristling with towers.

We leave for La Spezia for a full-day optional excursion. We take a ferry (included - weather permitting) to Cinque Terre, one of the most beautiful areas of the Liguria region. Here, five small villages are nestled in the cliffs overlooking the sea and hills where the land’s finest wines are grown. We will then make a short stop in the picturesque village of Monterosso.

This morning, we will go on another full-day optional excursion which takes us to Pienza and Montepulciano, the two jewels of the Renaissance. Montepulciano is known for its very impressive Renaissance buildings, its beautiful churches and especially for its “Vino Nobile” (noble wine), one of the most distinguished of Italian wines in the world. There is plenty of sightseeing, and the cathedral is well worth a visit. Pienza is a UNESCO protected town having a world famous cultural and natural patrimony.

Today, we will go on a full-day optional excursion to Florence, the birth place of the Renaissance. Here, we see, amongst others, the complex of three attractions - the Duomo, the Baptistery, and Giotto’s Steeple. We will visit Piazza Signoria, which is the meeting place of Florentines and tourists, and proceed to nearby Ponte Vecchio noted for the various shops built along it. We will have some time for sightseeing and to do some shopping. We will also have the opportunity to experience the ‘Scoppio del Carro’ which is a popular tradition that takes place on Easter Sunday in the historic centre of Florence.

This morning, we will go on a full-day optional excursion to Pisa, where we see the “Campo dei Miracoli”, the world-famous leaning Tower, the Cathedral, and the Baptistery. We will later proceed to Lucca, mostly known for its astonishing architecture dating back to the Gothic Era just before the Renaissance. Hidden behind imposing Renaissance walls, its cobbled streets, piazzas, and shady promenades makes it a perfect half-day visit.

After breakfast, we will check out and have a free morning before we board our coach and drive to Orvieto which is one of the most striking and memorable hill towns in central Italy. Later, we proceed to the airport for our return flight departing at 9.00pm and arriving in Malta at 10.30pm.
