Pantheon: 2000 years of history

LEARN MORE
The Pantheon in Rome is one of the most famous monuments of the city and perhaps the most enigmatic building in Italy. This splendid church dedicated "to all the gods" was commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – 14 AD) and was finally completed in 128 AD by the emperor Hadrian. This makes this amazing construction one of the oldest examples of architecture we have on our planet today. Built about two thousand years ago, it is still there!

How about a cooking class?

THE ART OF COOKING
Taking a cooking class while on vacation in Italy is very popular among travelers, who often choose to take part to one and couple it - say - with a nice wine tasting or a fine (hopefully!) dinner, that they themselves will have prepared following their chef’s instructions.

Espresso, macchiato o cappuccino?

THE ART OF COFFEE
Coffee is undoubtedly one of the most popular beverages in the world. It made its first appearance in Venice in 1570 thanks to Prospero Alpino, a physician from Padova, who returning from a trip to the far East, took a few bags of coffee with him, and had the Venetians taste some of that mysterious black concoction.

Good Morning Manuela,
My apology for the late response, but my first week back was filled with 14-hour days playing catch-up. I believe Alicia has provided you with details regarding our wonderful vacation in Italy.

Good afternoon Monica!
Our two-week experience in Italy was wonderful! The travel package that you put together for us exceeded all of our expectations. Everything from our accommodations to our ground transportation to our tours was just as we had hoped it would be.

Heather and Bill

Dear Cultural Italy,
Monica was delightful to work with. She was very helpful with suggesting tours. Monica was very quick to respond to our emails. She was able to move our Farm tour Massa Lubrense due to a plane delay.
