Italy’s iconic sights – the Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Uffizi Gallery, Duomos, Last Supper and Palazzo Ducale are on almost every Italy bucket list Watch our video to find out if you should take a tour of these places or simply buy tickets and wander at your own pace.

Our favorite small group tour companies are Take Walks (formerly Walks of Italy) and Liv Tours. Both offer very well designed and engaging tours of the major sights in Italy as well as interesting food and cultural tours. They both offer 24 hour prior cancelation

Take Walks have a longstanding reputation for well designed tours, excellent service, groups under 20 people and guaranteed departures. So if you are the only person booked on a tour it will still go ahead – https://untolditaly.com/recommends/take-walks/

Liv Tours are a family run company based in Rome. The offer very small group and private tours across Italy and Europe plus special experiences including the Ferrari Experience in Modena (easy day trip from Florence). They offer our group members 5% off with code – UntoldItaly – https://untolditaly.com/recommends/liv-tours/

For private tours try WithLocals – they run private tours at reasonable prices including some great options for families. There are set itineraries you can choose or work with a guide to customize your own. We love their 10 tastes food tours – https://untolditaly.com/recommends/withlocals/
