Iconic Coasts & Capitals: Rome to Barcelona via Riviera

Duration

10 Days 9 Nights

Destinations

Rome, Florence, Pisa

Overview

Ten days. Two countries. Five cities you actually want to spend time in — and a Cinque Terre morning that will quietly become the thing you talk about for years. This is a route for the traveller who wants Europe done properly: not rushed, not padded, and not planned around what’s cheapest to fly between.

Highlights
  • Skip-the-line Colosseum & Vatican — private guided, both days
  • Cinque Terre by local train — Riomaggiore to Monterosso
  • Monaco & Èze day trip with no packing — two nights in Nice
Itinerary

Day-by-Day

Your first hours in Rome are spent outdoors, not in a hotel lobby. After the airport transfer, the group heads straight into the evening — an orientation walk to the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps while both are lit and relatively quiet. It’s a deliberate start: no lectures, no museums, just the city at its most atmospheric. Welcome dinner follows at a traditional Roman trattoria in the neighbourhood.

Trevi Fountain & Spanish Steps (evening walk) — Rome rewards you most before the crowds arrive; this evening circuit sets the right pace for the days ahead. No entry tickets, no queues — just the city as it actually feels.


Overnight: Rome, Prati or Monti district

Meals: Halal group welcome dinner included. Lunch independent.
