Globus Best of Italy Review

by suelobo on January 7, 2011

You’ve heard about Italy—its romance, mouth-watering cuisine, excellent wine, fabulous art, splendid beauty, ancient ruins, extraordinary statues, and remarkable architecture. On this tour, get a taste of what Italy has to offer and explore its most famous cities—Rome, Florence, and Venice. Have your camera ready as you discover the historical sights of Rome, including the Colosseum, the amphitheater used for deadly gladiatorial contests and public spectacles, and the Roman Forum, the political, social, and commercial center during the Roman Empire. You’ll see ancient buildings and ruins, and you’ll be able to imagine what life was like thousands of years ago.  Great overview of Italy for those of us short on vacation time.
