Bell' Italia
Consider the deeper meaning of "Beautiful Italy" as you experience its art, history and culture.
In Venice, cars and roads give way to gondolas and canals, redefining what a city can be. The world's best collection of Renaissance art awaits in Florence. And in Rome, behold Michelangelo's take on creation at the Sistine Chapel and retrace the footsteps of ancient Romans at the Colosseum.
