Gondolas in Venice

VIP access to major attractions is what truly sets Globus apart from other tour operators. Words like “view” or “see” are never used to describe the inside visits to such famous attractions like the Vatican or the Sistine Chapels in Rome, or the lavish Doges’ Palace in Venice.  Beyond skipping the long line ups & the quick access to the interior of an attraction, your Globus experience will be much richer.  With the passion of your Local Guide, the headsets and the knowledge of your Tour Director, every story, every experience, and every question that needs answered will just another step towards appreciating your Italian journey.  The unforgettable details about colourful historic characters such as Leonardo DiVinci, and the landmarks such as the Pompeii excavations awaits you.

Another plus to choosing Globus is their brand new Local Favourites program.  The company will take guests behind the scenes to feature what makes the Italian regions exciting and unique, introducing its local flavours. Exclusive Local Favourites introduce you to Italy’s hidden gems with behind-the-scenes activities with local chefs, artisans and farmers to get a local feel for the culture of this beautifully diverse country.  On their Italian tours, these might be a parmesan cheese tasting in Parma; an exclusive visit to the Ferrari Gallery in Maranello; a gondala ride through the canals of Venice, or a walk through the ancient Etruscan labyrinth of Orvieto.

 

Whether it’s the romantic canals of Venice, the awe-inspiring Sistine Chapel or the celebrated Mediterranean cuisine, the time to experience the magnificence of Italy has never been better.  From must see landmarks to the smallest details, Globus covers Italy from start to finish like no one else.  A trip to Italy is a trip for the senses. And as a Traveller’s Favourite, Globus offers a trip of a lifetime.
