Plus, follow an itinerary that’s been carefully crafted by O.A.T.’s Rome office—opened in 2004.
People-to-People Experiences: Enjoy our A Day in the Life in the Chianti Valley on a family-owned goat farm, where you'll learn to make homemade cheese. And visit with a local family in Marina di Carrara for a Home-Hosted Lunch to learn what it's like living in the shadow of marble quarries while savoring a home-cooked meal of regional cuisine.

Add the pre-trip extension to History and Culinary Delights of Bologna & Parma, Italy or post-trip extension to Rome: Ancient Sites & Hidden City Gems; or both of these extensions to your Italy adventure—when you do, you’ll travel in the company of the same Trip Experience Leader throughout your trip for a seamless experience, and enjoy more time to develop bonds with your fellow travelers.
O.A.T. Exclusives: Learn from local truffle hunters in Spoleto why truffles are some of the most costly ingredients in the world and discuss common criticisms of the industry.
Join the growing number of solo travelers reserved on upcoming departures of this adventure—traveling independently or sharing a room with a mother, daughter, sister, or friend.

Travel Solo, But Never Alone: On average, almost half of your group will also be traveling independently, so it’s easier to forge special bonds as you experience unforgettable moments together during your adventure. Plus, your Trip Experience Leader can help connect you with fellow travelers who share your common interests.
