Our Chic Italy Multi-City Tour takes you to Italy’s fashion hubs, where you can enjoy city vibrancy, shopping and the finest Prosecco, as well as the fine landscape of the Italian Riviera. Enjoy a stop in Italy’s fashion capital Milan before escaping the crowds to nestle into one of Europe’s most desirable vacation resorts: The Italian Riviera. Our tour, which can be custom-made to your command, lets you wallow in the color-splashed Ligurian coast, while enjoying lush mountain scenes, sapphire blue Mediterranean waters and simply stunning coastlines in Portofino and the Cinque Terre. With pre-arranged tours, accommodation and private transfers, this is the perfect tour on which to relax and immerse yourself in the romance of Italian culture.

Milan

Milan

This chic Italy tour gives you every opportunity to explore the modern resorts in North Italy and begins in the fashion capital of Milan. We recommend spending 2 nights in this cosmopolitan and chic city to allow you to fully embrace the atmosphere, which is unlike anywhere else in Italy. Perhaps you can treat yourself to some tailored clothes from one of the city's boutique designer shops - we can arrange a personal shopping assistant to help guide you to seek out the best designer stores so that you can make the most of your time and stay ahead of the fashion trends. After your shopping trip, be sure to take in an espresso at one of the vibrant cafes while soaking up the Milan vibe. If you want to enjoy sightseeing, popular attractions include the Gothic Duomo and La Scala Opera House, and as a part of our custom travel service, we can arrange guided tours and day trips for you.

Genoa

Genoa

Continue your journey through Italy's fashion capitals with a stop in Genoa. This hidden gem sits on the Ligurian coast, not far from the famous Cinque Terre. The city has played a central role in North Italy's economy and is a mix of experiences, with the essence of modern Italy contrasted against the historic delights of the Old Town. On this chic Italy tour, we recommend discovering the palaces on Via Garibaldi or losing yourself in the labyrinth of alleys that make up the historic center. The city's world-renowned aquarium is a must too, where you can marvel at rare sea life and see tropical plants at the Pianeta Acquario. If you have time, stop by the port and sip a cocktail at one of the city bars whilst watching boats float on the horizon.

Portofino

Portofino

Next, it is time for some luxury on your chic Italy tour as we take you to the exclusive resort of Portofino. Spend 4 days here absorbing the atmosphere of this impossibly glamorous harbor village at a luxury hotel boasting stunning sea views. As soon as you arrive in Portofino you will understand why it is one of the Riviera's most photographed villages - its colorful buildings that decorate dramatic coastlines are impossibly pretty and it has some of the best sea views. It's no surprise that it has long been a popular destination for the rich and famous, but now it is your turn to embrace the affluent aura, stroll around the pretty harbor, browse boutique shops and sip coffee while people-watching. You can also enjoy the popular attractions, such as San Fruttuoso Abbey, Castello Brown and the underwater Christ of the Abyss.

Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre

The Cinque Terre is a stunning stretch of the Italian coast that is made up of five UNESCO-recognized fishing villages. This beautiful stretch of landscape is characterized by green hills decorated with Mediterranean herbs and vibrant flowers, and multi-colored villas that shield secluded coastal walking trails. Here you can relax in the tranquil scenery or enjoy delightful activities, such as cycling and walking trails, or even paragliding. As a romantic treat, we highly recommend taking the iconic walk between Riomaggiore and Manarola, which is known as Via Dell’Amore (“Lovers’ Walk”) – it features magical coastal scenes, sea views and romantic sculptures, and we can arrange a private photo session with a professional photographer, who can capture your memorable moments.
