Overview

Italy and Greece, both are known for their balmy weather, pristine beaches, rich history, stunning landscapes, and mouth-watering cuisine. Venice may be popular for its beautiful bridges and gondola rides but there is so much more to this city. Built over 118 islands, Venice and its lagoon is one of the most unique cities in the world and with its Venetian Gothic architecture, Renaissance and Baroque buildings, great museums, wide piazzas, and delectable cuisines, Venice is often described as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Rome too is bursting at the seams with fascinating things to see and do. Home to some of the most historic monuments, art, and architecture in the world, it is a city that is laced with layers and layers of history. While Italy is blessed with picture-perfect locations and rich cultural history and of course the unforgettable Roman architecture, Greece, on the other hand being the cradle of western civilisation, is dotted with the remains of monuments, arenas, and antiquated temples and structures. This 10 day tour package lets you explore and enjoy the best destinations of both Italy and Greece with ample leisure time in between to discover the cities on your own too.
