Why This Journey
Italy in a world of social media, La Dolce Vita offers something rarer — authentic Italy. Behind palace doors that never open for tours. In kitchens where nonnas share recipes passed down through generations. Through landscapes that inspire rather than simply impress. With just 28 cabins, every moment feels personal, every encounter genuine. This is Italy before it became a destination — when it was simply home to people who understood that beauty should be lived, not merely photographed.
Doge's Palace Exclusivity
Walk through Venice's legendary Doge's Palace after the crowds have departed, experiencing in profound silence the chambers where merchant princes shaped European destiny.
Vatican Sanctum Access
Venture into Vatican chambers forbidden to the public, walking where only papal guests have walked, witnessing masterpieces in profound silence.
Roman Cultural Privilege
Conclude with after-hours access to the Pantheon itself—standing alone within Rome's most perfect monument, yours to contemplate in sacred silence.
Venetian Canal Discovery
Glide through Venice's quiet canals on private waterways, discovering the Serenissima's hidden corners whilst evening light illuminates palazzos in ways that inspired Canaletto.
From £22,999
Route & Highlights
Begin in Rome, then travel to Venice for curated moments: a quiet canal at dusk, a private palazzo supper, perhaps after‑hours at the Doge’s Palace. Continue to Portofino for pesto workshops, Castello Brown vistas and the Riviera’s measured ease. Return to Rome for a final evening at La Minerva.
Portofino Pesto Mastery
Master Liguria's most sacred culinary art in Portofino itself—learning authentic pesto-making from local masters whilst the Italian Riviera's legendary beauty provides the most inspiring classroom.
Castello Brown Heritage
Journey to the magnificent Castello Brown, an historic residence with stunning views over Portofino bay, where you'll explore noble estates with exquisite artwork and architecture.
Colosseum & Forum Privilege
Experience Rome's ancient heart through exclusive private tours of the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill—no queues, just intimate access to archaeological wonders.
