Is there any way you can organise international flights from Brisbane Australia to the starting destination of this tour, for 4 adults in the December period? Is it possible to include Florence Italy as a destination to learn about the Medici? Is the tour on the last day in Athens an included guided tour to all those landmarks you mentioned, or is it a self guided tour that we have to organise transport to all the landmarks?

Yes, the last day will be guided. As this is a group tour with others, there is no way to add Florence in the middle of the organized tour. We do not organize flights. This way you can book any flights that you prefer. Most travelers choose to land a day or two before the tour.
