Itinerary
4 Nights – Florence
3 Nights – Bologna
✈ UK – Florence (4 Nights): First we will fly you from the UK to Florence, and then meet you on arrival to take you to your hotel, where you will be staying for your first 4 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 stunning 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 to Bologna (3 Nights): After checking out of your hotel in Florence, you’ll travel by train to Bologna, where you’ll be staying for a further 3 nights.
Bologna is a lively city, claimed by many to be Italy’s gastronomic capital. Wonder the endless arcades, and explore the various boutiques. Take in the cities many medieval and Renaissance buildings, and most of all enjoy the captivating dining experiences on offer.
✈ Bologna to UK: On your final day, we’ll transfer you to Bologna Airport, for your flights to the UK.

Third yearwe have used eShores to book our annual vacation, and they are great! No complaints. We say what we want to do and where and they provide a quote that we can then tailor to fit. A lot easier than us working it all out ourselves. They are also really quick at responding and very helpful with queries.

We've booked two holidays with eShores and have been so pleased with what they've planned for us we're in the process of booking a third. Nothing has been too much trouble for Rachel or Michelle who have listened to what we've asked for and come up with some good suggestions, with travel plans running smoothly.
