For centuries, Italy has lured our greatest lovers, artists and poets with its natural beauty and languid pace. The good life, or "la vita Italia," can be yours as well. Join Journey Out and experience Italy for yourself. Whether it is your first trip to Italy or your tenth, we will show you the absolute best of Rome and Tuscany. La Vita Italia, indeed.

No city in the world is as beautiful as Rome, and few as glamorous. A chaotic labyrinth of ancient and new streets, Rome is truly a cosmopolitan city. Romans, always looking gorgeous and perfecting their dolce far niente, are feverishly attached to this, their "Eternal City."

Tuscany is a land sculpted by man and nature to be as productive and a beautiful as possible. Its rows of vineyards winding around rolling slopes dotted with dark green cypress trees and burnt umber sienna farm houses, castles aged by nature, and corners sprinkled with wild flowers. Tuscany is also the heart of the Italian Renaissance. It produced unique architecture, painting, and sculpture and you can find famous museums even in the smallest cities. In Tuscany you will find Roman ruins side by side with gothic structures. It is said that the mixture of structures and landscapes give the natives of Tuscany a special artistic sense unlike anywhere else in the world. They call it the “Tuscan Miracle.”

Tucked away to the west and south of Tuscany are dozens of small hill-towns that, for many, epitomize the region. San Gimignano is the best-known, and is worth visiting as much for its spectacular array of frescoes as for its much-photographed bristle of medieval tower-houses. Be sure to enjoy a special wine tasting of some of the best wines of the region.

Come with Journey Out and see the sights, sounds and flavors of Rome and Tuscany unfold like a gradual crescendo into a splendid harmony, a celebration of life! La Vita Italia!
