Anne & Thomas

One honeymoon date we can't miss! A day tour of Ancient Rome! An exciting journey through history and its legends, stories and anecdotes. With our guide we will begin at the Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine, then take a leisurely stroll through the Roman Forum and the Imperial Fori to the Capitol Hill, ending up at the Pantheon, Hadrian's temple dedicated to all the pagan gods. What a great day!

With your wedding gift we'll enjoy an excursion to the bustling city of Naples, home to mouth-watering pizza, and then head off to Pompeii with well-preserved ancient ruins and Italian treasures. This will be an incredible experience!

As we stay in Florence for a few nights, we will explore the nightlife and maybe stop into one of the Piazza or stop in one of the local shops and pick up a souvenir from this beautiful city.

There is so much to see in Rome. Maybe we'll stroll through the streets and make a wish at the Trevi Fountain or lounge and people watch on the Spanish Steps. Whatever we decide, your gift will ensure that we soak in all we can from this very historically rich city.

As we stay a few nights in Sorrento, we will explore the night life and maybe visit a local bar or buy a souvenir at a local woodcarving factory. We may also take an excursion to Capri!

Either before or after our dinner, we will explore the night life in Venice. Maybe walk over the many bridges, stop in a local bar, or stop for dessert and a latte! Maybe we'll pick up a souvenir to remember our stay in Venice.

Many ancient culinary traditions and characteristics of Italy's distinct regional cuisines and traditional recipes are passed down from generation to generation. We will experience hands on instruction by our own professional Italian chef. It's true what they say, "Italians live to eat while the rest of the world eats to live."

A gondola ride is the quintessence of romantic Venice! We will enjoy a soothing journey along the canals and be captivated by the glamour and elegance of this true Italian honeymoon experience. We'll be taken to a spectacular water front Venetian restaurant to be wined and dined in style. Simply heaven!

On our romantic Italian honeymoon, we'll embrace Venice's rich history on this guided walk around St. Mark's Square! Afterwards we will tour some of the city's most famous historical landmarks including the gold-dotted St. Mark's Basilica, the Gothic Ducale Palace and the breathtaking Bridge of Sighs.

We will explore the quintessential wine region of Tuscany! We will learn about the history of the distinctive and historical wine making region of Italy while our expert guides will share their vast knowledge of wine, and more important, offer us a sampling of some of their favorites. Tuscany is not only famous for its wine but also its olive oil. We will taste some of the famous Crostini Toscano as we learn why extra virgin olive oil plays such an important role in Italian Cuisine.

We will tour through the fertile and picturesque Tuscan countryside towards the historic university city of Pisa. Together, we'll take the panoramic drive along the Arno embankments, visit the Piazza dei Miracoli famous for the celebrated Leaning Tower, and unequalled masterpieces of Romanesque art carried out between the 11th and 12th centuries. This will be a great honeymoon day!

We'll relax on a romantic gondola ride along the Grand Canal, Venice's largest waterway. We will be serenaded by live music as we wind through secret canals and enjoy the ornate Venetian architecture. This will be very romantic!

So many excursions we can go on; visit museums, roman ruins, catacombs, countryside.

On our walking tour we'll visit St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums, and the Sistine Chapel. The Vatican is one of the most interesting and breathtakingly beautiful sites in the world, with some very interesting stories, and our personal guide has all the scoop!

Why settle for a standard room especially on this special time. With your gift, we can plan ahead and upgrade to a romantic suite on our once in a lifetime trip!

We will stay in very comfy and cozy rooms at romantic hotels to make sure we have plenty of energy during the day!

What better honeymoon welcome than to have a bottle of chilled Prosecco waiting for us as we arrive at our hotels in Sorrento, Rome, Florence and Venice!!

What better way to enhance our fine dining experience than with our chosen bottle of exceptional wine.Cheers!

What could be better than knowing we'll have breakfast to enjoy between the sheets? We'll order eggs florentine, cinnamon rolls, freshly squeezed orange juice and hot coffee which all seem to taste better served to us in bed!

It's casual, fun and perfect for an afternoon lunch. With so many restaurants in town, we'll choose the most perfect, casual restaurant where we'll take delight in the juiciest burgers, fresh sandwiches, chicken and fries!

Anne always says it's the whole point of a meal...having dessert. Gelato, cannoli, cheesecake, tiramisu...whatever Anne wants for dessert, she'll be able to get!

Wonder who will feed who grapes in bed? We'll order a nice basket of fruit that should keep our energy high.

We look forward to reserving an intimate candlelit dinner. We'll choose a quiet restaurant with a warm atmosphere, outstanding cuisine and impeccable service.

We will visit all the trendy stores on the main street in the heart of the busy city, checking out the classically elegant European clothes in all the boutiques. We'll shop until we drop!

Taxi please! No driving for us on our honeymoon.

Any help to get to and from our destination is a wonderful gift. We will be thanking you long after take off.

We'll stretch out our legs and relax in the optimum comfort and luxury of First Class. We will enjoy sumptuous cuisine, a full drinks menu, first class service, and we will select from a variety of on screen entertainment. What a great start to our honeymoon trip!
