MILAN-Verona-Dolomites and Cortina LUXURY WINTER ADVENTURE PACKAGE (12-DAY)

In this morning's tour, we will cover two must-see highlights of Milan.  It's perfect for those on a tight schedule because it takes only four hours.   

Let's start with a visit to Santa Maria delle Grazie, a Renaissance jewel where Leonardo collaborated with Donato Bramante, another artist of note. In the church, you can see Leonardo's Last Supper, a work of art that exemplifies perspective and realism.   

Afterward, head to the heart of the city and admire the Duomo, the city's grand cathedral. Built by the Visconti family in 1386, the cathedral was completed by Napoleon in 1805 and is today the third-largest church in the world. You can also explore the nearby Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, one of the world's first Art Nouveau arcades and one of the world's first glass vaulted shopping arcades. In Milan, the Galleria is considered 'the living room of the Milanese'. (4 hours, driver and guide)    

Important: Please note that your visit to see the ‘Last Supper’ is always subject to availability and it is not possible to confirm entry until one week prior to the date of the visit.  

Then, you can take a three-hour walking tour to discover the secrets of Milan's fashion world. Explore Milan's internationally renowned fashion district, the Quadrilatero della Moda - a district of style and elegance. The most stylish boutiques along Via Montenapoleone and Via della Spiga feature some of the world's most prestigious brand names. As part of your tour, your guide will also tell you about Piazza San Fedele and Via Manzoni, and explain the elegant architecture in the area. (3 hours, expert fashion guide and private transfers)   

Accommodation: Hotel Sina de la Ville (upgradeable to Four Seasons)

Today you will travel to Lake Como by private vehicle where you will enjoy a 3-hour cruise on a luxury motorboat with a local guide. From the water, you can see the villa of the famous American actor George Clooney, who lives in Laglio.   

The boat will take you to Bellagio, where you can admire the lovely gardens of Villa Balbianello from the water. After a day of sightseeing, spend a couple of hours relaxing in the picturesque village of Bellagio. Here you can soak up the atmosphere as you stroll along the esplanade with outstanding views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Then, come back to your private vehicle to return to Milan.     

Accommodation: Hotel Sina de la Ville (upgradeable to Four Seasons)

Verona will host the closing ceremony of Milan Winter Games.   

In the morning, you are transported by private vehicle to your hotel in Verona. While en route, visit the sparkling area of Franciacorta, Italy's "champagne" district.    

This region has a long tradition of making still wines that dates to at least Virgil and Pliny the Elder, and is documented in the Brescia City Council books as "Franzacurta" as far back as 1277. It was Guido Berlucchi who introduced the "Franciacorta" brand in 1957 with a delicate white wine named Pinot di Franciacorta. In 1961, the vintage yielded 4,600 bottles of sparkling wine, also sold as Pinot di Franciacorta, thanks to an ambitious young winemaker working for Berlucchi named Franco Ziliani. You will be guided through the cellars of one of the wineries in the region, followed by a tasting of the wines. Following your tasting, enjoy lunch at your leisure before driving to your hotel in Verona.     

Accommodation: Due Torri Hotel (2 nights)
