We think the ideal introduction to Rome's historic (but not ancient) center is to take a small group late afternoon walking tour.

Pristine Sistine Early Entrance Small Group Vatican Tour

Standing in the Sistine Chapel and marvelling at Michelangelo's masterpieces is a memory that will stay with you forever but to enjoy it this moment to its fullest the best way is by entering the Vatican a full hour before the general public. It'll be an early start for this VIP small group tour but totally worth it. Your guide will tell you the story of the chapel, before continuing to explore the Vatican Museums and St Peter's Basilica.

Tivoli Architectural and Landscape Wonders

With its cool climate and plentiful springs, the town of Tivoli has been a popular retreat for Roman elites since ancient times. To get an idea of what near-limitless wealth could get you during two very different eras, we recommend visiting the town’s two UNESCO-listed villas, Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa. Occasional seat of power at the height of the Roman empire, Hadrian’s Villa housed several thousand workers amidst temples, gardens, pools, and theaters. Villa D’Este is the epitome of Renaissance architecture. Exploring its countless fountains and seemingly endless gardens is a peaceful, if awe-inspiring, experience. We offer a small group tour that takes you through the scenic countryside of Lazio to Tivoli.

Night and the City

Discover the beauty of Dubrovnik while strolling down the cobbled streets at night and have a drink in one of the bars on the main street to just watch the world go by. Or visit the famous Buza Bar. With a name translating to "Hole in the Wall," Buza is not just a great bar, but a lovely location, with breathtaking views of incredible scenery at sunset.

Grand Canal Small Group Boat Tour

The Grand Canal of Venice is the most spectacular "Main Street" in the world.

This 60 minute tour includes a cruise along the city's more secluded waterways to enjoy the picturesque small bridges and "off the beaten track'' sights, to introduce you to a quieter Venice.
