There may be no better one-two punch of exceptional European destinations to travel to on a combined itinerary than Greece and Italy.

Explore these two historic and culturally rich countries on a whimsical journey through the Mediterranean. Discover how Greek and Italian histories intertwine, and also how they stand apart from one another through their own unique heritage stretching back to ancient times.

In Greece, experience Athens in modern times, and as you explore, step back in time millennia to learn more about its roots. Visit the Parthenon, uncover how the Olympic Games began, and consider the Greek philosophers who once changed the entire world many centuries ago. Then set off to find out what the rest of Greece has to offer!

In Italy, you’ll have an adventure through ancient history in Rome. Take a tour of the Coliseum, a not to be missed landmark. Wander through the streets of Rome and experience all the delicious Italian cuisine you can imagine along the way! Pizza, pasta and gelato are all on the menu. You’ll also visit Florence to stand in awe of Michaelangelo’s pristine David sculpture, and Venice to see the city famous for its network of canals.
