  • S

    Sandy

    Asked on February 20th, 2026

    Where do we stay on days 4,5,6? Strange that you did not include this information. I like staying in the same hotel for several days at a time!

    Accommodation
    • Towns of ItalyOperatorWritten February 2026

      Unfortunately, the hotel changes every day on days 4, 5, and 6 due to the planned itinerary and travel schedule. The program requires moving to a different accommodation each night. On Day 4, the hotel will be in Cernobbio; on Day 5, in Verona; and on Days 6 and 7, in Venice.
