Vision of Italy Tour
Since classical times, ancient Carthaginians, Phoenicians and Greeks established settlements in the south of Italy, the Italic tribe known as the Latins, formed the Roman Kingdom.
The Renaissance began in Italy and spread to the rest of Europe, bringing a renewed interest in humanism, science, exploration and art with the start of the modern era. Italian culture flourished at this time, producing famous scholars, artists and polymath such as Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo Galilei, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Nicolo' Macchiavelli and many others.
Explorers from Italy such as Marco Polo, Cristoforo Colombo, Amerigo Vespucci and Giovanni da Verrazzano discovered new routes to the Far East and the New World helping to usher in the European Age of Discovery.
Today Italy is number one for Unesco World Heritage Sites.
