Visit Italy Tours recognizes that every traveler is different. Choose from the various package types we offer that best suit your own travel preferences or needs.

Independent Programs
We've created these packages that allow you to explore Italy's most popular destinations on your own. Itineraries include pre-arranged transportation by private car transfer, train or rental car. Some independent programs include guided sightseeing excursions or we can arrange for additional services as you please. Our independent programs include some of our most popular packages, and are perfect for travelers who prefer a more flexible itinerary with ample free time.

Escorted Tours
These tours are perfectly designed for those who enjoy traveling on a fixed schedule with other tourists from different countries. Escorted tours offer the convenience of a fixed package price, with the majority of travel expenses pre-paid upon departure. Amenities on most escorted tours provide fixed departure dates, deluxe motor-coach travel from point-to-point, some or most meals, luggage porterage for most or all of the tour, a full-time, professional tour escort and local guides for specific sites. These tours generally include a very full schedule of touring and sightseeing and are often the most cost-effective means to see all the sites included while enjoying the comradery of other travelers.

Build Your Own Tour
Enjoy the luxury of being in full control of your own travel agenda at all times, at the pace and style you choose. Design your own program by simply choosing the towns and cities you’d like to visit, and add specifc sightseeing tours and services as you wish. Or, our expert staff members can provide guidance and design a custom itinerary for you, based on your special interests, timetable and budget.

Mini Programs Mini programs are short duration (2-4 day), independent tours. Extend your stay in Italy and add these packages as a pre- or post-tour. Or, venture to nearby destinations outside Italy, such as Switzerland and Malta, as the perfect addition to our complete packages. Our romantic mini programs provide fantastic options and upgrades for couples planning a build-your-own customized vacation.

City Sightseeing Excursions
Here's the ideal way to see and discover the local attractions of the city. These short day trips range from a half day (2-3 hours) to a full day (6-10 hours) and may include activities such as visiting museums, historical sites, local markets, gardens and villas. Transportation is by way of walking, minibus or motor coach.

Private City Tours
Unlike a regularly scheduled city sightseeing tour, these private, personally-escorted tours include a professional guide and allow you to explore specific sights, according to your own interests and pace. Enjoy a walking tour or travel by a private car or minivan.

Pre/Post-Cruise Tours
Enhance your Mediterranean cruise experience with a tour of Italy. This option consists of hotel accommodations and city sightseeing tour(s), scheduled prior to or immediately following your cruise dates. Choose from pre-arranged tour programs, designed to include the highlights of port cities and/or nearby cities and attractions. Pre/Post-Cruise Tours can also include custom-designed itineraries.

Private Shore Excursions
Avoid crowded group tours that are so often encountered with cruise line-sponsored excursions. Explore the beautiful attractions and places where your cruise ship stops with a private shore excursion either pre-designed to include the most important sites in each city, or custom designed with your particular wishes in mind.
