      My son will be on his own room , will he be charged more as a single?

    • Meet and Greet ItalyOperatorWritten June 2025

      October is a fantastic time to visit Italy, as the weather is usually very pleasant, not too hot, and not too cold. The visit to the Accademia Gallery in Florence to see Michelangelo's David is not included in the standard package, but it can be added as an optional activity on the second day in Florence which is a free day. Similarly, the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel tour is not included in the base package but can be added as an extra on thje secon day in Rome, as detailed in the itinerary. The cost for single occupancy is different from the per-person rate in a double room.
