Round Trip Description

This five-stop driving itinerary runs from the eternal charm of Rome to the lagoon alleys of Venice, weaving through Tuscany, the dramatic Ligurian coast and Italy’s northern metropolis. Begin with several nights in Rome to savour ancient monuments, lively piazzas and world-class cuisine. Drive north to Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, where compact streets reveal Duomo terraces, galleries and artisan workshops. Continue west to La Spezia, the practical gateway for exploring the Cinque Terre’s rugged coastal trails, pastel villages and sea views — an ideal place for boat trips and coastal photography. From the Ligurian shore head inland and north to Milan, a dynamic centre of design, fashion and striking architecture, where cathedral terraces and modern galleries provide a contrast to earlier stops. Conclude with a multi-night stay in Venice, a unique finale of canals, palazzi and intimate neighbourhoods best explored on foot and by vaporetto. Each driving leg has been chosen as a comfortable day’s journey of at least two hours, allowing time for scenic stops, short hikes, regional dining and relaxed exploration — perfect for travellers seeking a balanced taste of Italy’s history, coastlines and contemporary culture.
