Trip to Italy May 2026! Potluck Booking Party

Let's eat, drink and be merry in Italy! Get ready to fall in love with Italy on an unforgettable 9-day adventure that sweeps you from the ancient heart of Rome to the romantic canals of Venice, through the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany and the spiritual calm of Assisi. Imagine standing in the Colosseum where gladiators once battled, sipping Chianti in a vineyard surrounded by rolling countryside, strolling through Florence where the Renaissance was born, and cruising into Venice like royalty as St. Mark’s Basilica shimmers in the distance. From the soaring cathedrals of Orvieto and Siena to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the frescoed walls of St. Francis’ Basilica, every stop is a masterpiece, bursting with flavor, art, and soul. With local guides bringing history to life, perfect hotels, and breathtaking landscapes at every turn, this isn’t just a tour—it’s a love story with Italy you’ll never forget.

The trip is from May 31st - June 8th. The cost is $2,349 per person based on double occupancy. Prefer your own space? Single rooms are available for an additional $410—but availability is limited. Secure your spot with a $250 non-refundable deposit, with the final payment due by January 1, 2026. The trip includes accommodations, expert-guided tours, 8 breakfasts and 3 dinners.

Airfare is estimated at around $1500. You will have the option to arrange your own flights or coordinate with the tour company.
