Highlights & Sightseeing

St Peter's Square and Basilica

St. Peter's Square is a bustling piazza where the masses receive the Pope's weekly blessings. This ornate square frames the entrance to St. Peter's Basilica, where St. Peter was martyred and buried.

The Baptistery of St. John

Brunelleschi engineered the innovative Gothic dome gracing the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. As for the stunning bronze doors of the Baptistery, Michelangelo dubbed them "the Gates of Paradise."

Leaning Tower of Pisa

It is called the Leaning Tower or the Tower of Pisa but actually it was never used for defending the city; it is part of the religious complex in the Duomo Square and acts as its bell tower.

Castello Brown

A historic house museum located high above the harbour of Portofino, Italy. Its site has been used for military defence since Roman times. Enjoy the stunning views!

Canal Grande

Venice's main water thoroughfare, lined with great Renaissance palaces, is a colorful and busy spectacle of gondolas and vaporetti.
