We have created them by teaming up with Alphabet Kids, the go-to source for multicultural educational activities and adventures.<\/p>\n<p>The trip starts in <strong>Venice<\/strong> where your hotel is the warm and welcoming 3-star <strong>Locanda al Leon<\/strong>. It&#8217;s right in the center of town, and when you arrive, a gondola ride will introduce you to the city&#8217;s canals and to mesmerizing views of its ancient <i>palazzo<\/i>. The following day, explore Venice with a private guide in a special guided walking tour designed for children with interactive learning in mind. In the afternoon, get your hands dirty during an informative and fun mask-making workshop. You will learn all about Carnival and its centuries-old traditions, while making your very own mask to take back home with you!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Florence<\/strong> is your next stop &#8212; here you will stay at <strong> Relais Uffizi<\/strong>, a charming property facing onto the central Piazza della Signoria. Our family-friendly walking tour introduces your children to the birthplace of the Renaissance; they&#8217;ll get to climb a 13th century tower and do a yummy <i>gelato<\/i> tasting, too! No visit to Florence is complete without a face-to-face meeting with Michelangelo&#8217;s David. In Italy food is both culture and fun, so get ready for a visit the farmer&#8217;s market and your hands-on family cooking class where you will prepare a traditional Tuscan meal.<\/p>\n<p>Last stop is <strong>Rome<\/strong>, the Eternal City. Your hotel, the <strong>Fontanella Borghese<\/strong>, once belonged to a Borghese princess. A highlight is your visit to one of the world&#8217;s the most compelling art spaces: the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel.
