Assisi, Italy

Day 10 - This morning pay tribute to the 4,402 interred servicemen and women who fought for the liberation of Italy at the Florence American Cemetery, one of 14 permanent American World War II military cemetery memorials on foreign soil. You will travel further to one of the most culturally rich cities in the world: Firenze (Florence). Meet your Italian guide for an initial look at the city. You’ll get an overview of the colorful history of Florence and take a walk through the city center. The Duomo, the famous symbol of Florence, is the tallest building in the city and the fourth largest cathedral in Europe. Look for the bronze doors to the Baptistery, known as the “Gate of Paradise.” Visit the Accademia Gallery, which houses Michelangelo’s colossal statue, David. Board your coach and continue your journey to Perugia.
