Florence is known for Renaissance art and architecture, with the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio shaping its skyline. Despite its fame, it feels compact and lived-in, with busy piazzas, artisan workshops and a strong Tuscan food culture.
Naples is a lively city on the Bay of Naples, known for pizza, faded grandeur and the presence of Vesuvius. Its historic centre is dense and energetic, where churches, street life and sea views sit close together.
Orvieto is known for its dramatic Duomo, Etruscan heritage and position on volcanic cliffs. Medieval streets, underground spaces and a calm Umbrian atmosphere give it a distinct character.
Siena is a medieval Tuscan city known for the Piazza del Campo, the Palio and its striped Duomo. Its steep lanes, Gothic buildings and strong civic traditions give it a more austere character than many larger Italian cities.
Tivoli is a hillside town east of Rome known for Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa. Its historic centre feels lived-in and calm, with stone streets, fountains and broad views over the surrounding countryside.
