Immerse yourself in the true essence of town and country life in northern Italy in spectacular Venice and the fabled Lake District. In picturesque Cernobbio, spend four nights in a lake-view room in the charming HOTEL REGINA OLGA. Enjoy a private boat cruise on Lake Como, a setting that has inspired poets, composers, artists and philosophers for centuries. Explore the treasures of Bellagio, Villa del Balbianello and Stresa; cruise across Lake Maggiore to the Borromean Islands; and walk through storied Verona, a UNESCO World Heritage site, to see the balcony where Juliet yearned for her Romeo. In the floating city of Venice, spend three nights in a four-star hotel near Piazza San Marco. Enjoy a private boat cruise along the famous palace-lined Grand Canal and experience the city’s cobblestoned alleys and meandering waterways. Enriching lectures and the exclusive TOWN & COUNTRY LIFE FORUM® with local residents provide personal perspectives of the region. This comprehensive small group program is the best way to experience the northern Italian town and country life. Milan/Bergamo Pre-Program Option.
