Italy Tours & Vacations Starting from Rome

Zicasso's travel specialist asked for our interests, to which we replied history, art, food, and wine. When queried about accommodations, our preferences were that they have character and be varied. Our expectations were exceeded.  

We were two couples who had a spectacular survey trip of Italy. Our agent addressed our request for history by arranging private tours with expert guides. We visited multiple eras: ancient times at the Egyptian Museum in Turin and the Colosseum in Rome; medieval times at the Medici palazzos; Byzantine times with views of the frescoes in Puglia; and modern history during a delightful food tour of Turin that featured historical cafés renowned for their political meetings and plotting. 

We indulged in a smorgasbord of art and history, as it is readily available wherever you journey in Italy. The guides and drivers were knowledgeable, pointing out treasures in the palazzos, the Vatican, the public squares, cafés, the cathedrals, and churches. Food tours featured cheese, capicola and truffle tasting. Multiple types of wines and vineyards were sampled, the settings varied and the offerings enjoyed.  

Accommodations could not have been better chosen. We enjoyed staying at a converted fortified monastery and a historic 16th-century palace. We appreciated the sunset over Turin from the upper deck of the hotel and enjoyed hidden privacy in Rome in our suites.  

During the trip, our guide shepherded this complex trip and promptly addressed any issues that occurred (delayed trains and coordinating tour guides). Unequivocally, each tour was unique and well picked by our agent. We strongly recommend this agency to help you have a fantastic trip to Italy!

Excellent trip! Zicasso's travel agency took care of all the details: travel within Italy, tickets, etc... They also arranged to have someone greet us as we arrived at each of our destinations. The guides were excellent; warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. It's the attention to the details that sets this agency apart from other travel organizations. My sister and her husband are planning a trip to Italy in the spring of 2026, and I wholeheartedly recommended they book through this agency. You should, too!

Zicasso’s tour operator was wonderful to work with. They answered all our questions quickly. All the arrangements they made for us went smoothly. They created a WhatsApp group for us, so if there was an emergency or just a quick question, we could reach them. They even called us on our first day to review the itinerary with them! They planned a great trip for us! They stayed within our budget, which was tight, but gave us a first-class trip.
