Itinerary
2 Nights Rome
3 Nights Tuscany
2 Nights Florence
✈UK – Rome (2 Nights): On the arrival of your flight from the UK to Rome, we will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel, where you will stay for the following 2 nights. From the architectural treasures of the Colosseum, the Pantheon, Saint Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican City, the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps, you will have no trouble filling your days in Rome! Aside from these fabulous landmarks, Rome is a wonderful place to amble in and out of the stunning piazzas and little side streets, stopping for an espresso every now and again to watch the world go by!
🚗 Rome – Tuscany (3 Nights): On the morning of your last day in Rome, you will pick up your hire car from the local depot and drive to Tuscany where you will stay for the following 3 nights at a hotel of your choice. Images of Tuscany conjure up rolling hills, pretty towns perched on hilltops, cobbled streets and vineyards and a relaxed, convivial way of life. One of the region’s main visitor attractions is the small but perfectly formed medieval hilltop village of San Gimignano, with its square tower houses and magnificent architecture and piazzas. You must also visit the wine region of Chianti, where you can sample some of the local wine and marvel at the picture perfect panoramic vistas of this beautiful region. Another tourist favourite is the pretty village of Figline Valdarno, known for its Pleistocene fossils.
🚗 Tuscany – Florence (2 Nights): After your time in Florence, you will continue your journey by road onto Tuscany’s capital city of Florence, where you will stay for 2 nights. Situated on the banks of the Arno river, Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance and is an art-lover’s dream, being home to a number of world-class art galleries such as the Uffizi Gallery which has an amazing collection of Renaissance sculptures and paintings by the likes of da Vinci, Francesca and Botticelli. You can also see famous works of art at the Palatina Gallery and the Accademia Gallery, which has Michelangelo’s masterpiece ‘David’ and many other splendid works of art. A large part of Florence is pedestrianised, so perfect for exploring on foot. Take in the sights of the Piazza della Signoria, the Palazzo Vecchio and the Piazza del Duomo whilst enjoying this beautifully preserved medieval city. Another ‘must-see’ is the Basilica di San Miniato al Monte which is situated just outside the city, on the top of a hill, but is well worth the trip for the incredible views and architecture.
✈Florence – UK: On your final day in Florence, you will drive back to Pisa airport where you will drop off your car and take your flight to the UK.

Leanne was a delight to work with, proactively suggesting options, whilst remembering they had to be practical. What I appreciated most was how responsive and efficient Leanne was. Everything was handled promptly. Even though we haven’t taken the trip yet, I already feel confident that things will run smoothly thanks to the excellent groundwork that Leanne put in place.

I’ve now lost count of the trips I’ve booked with Gavin at e-shores and how he always manages to know exactly what we like and gets a great price - always the same or less than I research myself. Our latest was Greek island hopping to Mykonos, Paros, Naxos and Santorini and the hotels Gavin booked were all outstanding and the typically small, boutique hotels with less crowds. We went out of season (1st - 13th Sept) and everything went smoothly from the airport transfers, the welcome we had at each hotel and the beauty of each island having its own magic. Looking forward to the next trip already booked through Gavin in November! Thank you everyone-shores - the Napiers!

Claire Smith offered invaluable support in arranging our travel by air to Portugal pluse trains around the country, offering a choice of three hotels in every stop. She expanded our initial thoughts of Lisbon and Porto to include fantastic destinations that we would not have thought of - Guimaraes, Aveiro and Sintra. And she suggested tours we might enjoy. She listened. She selected hotels on the basis of what we told her we would like, from the feel of them to their location and the facilities they had. She was on the end of the phone when I needed her and made me feel there would be help at the end of the phone in an emergency abroad. We're looking forward to our getaway, secure in the knowledge it has been tailor maide to our requirements.

As always, fantastic service from Rob at eShores. He responded quickly to any requests and provided excellent support throughout the booking process. This is the second trip we’ve booked with him, and we’ve even recommended him to family members who are now also booking their holidays with Rob. Highly recommended

Our travel consultant, whom we have worked with for a few trips now, was given a wide ranging, complex and extensive overseas tour itinerary to quote for my wife and I. Not only did she return the quote within a matter of days but it was an amazing price and the hotels of our choice were mainly booked. The administration backed up the agreed quote with all relevant documents and we paid the deposit. All was done with the utmost efficiency, accuracy and speed. Wiil be back!!
