Bell'Italia
Consider the deeper meaning of "Beautiful Italy" as you travel to Italy to enjoy its art, history and culture. In Venice, cars and roads give way to gondolas and canals, redefining what a city can be. Girls will experience both the art & flavors of Italy on a guided tour of Florence. In Rome, girls will see Michelangelo's take on creation at the Sistine Chapel and they'll retrace the footsteps of ancient Romans at the Colosseum.
