Itinerary
Day 1: Rome
Arrive at any time.
“On an evening in Roma…” Venture out to a bar or pub with your CEO and fellow travellers for drinks and conversation. As you explore the winding cobblestone streets and sidewalks of The Eternal City, prepare for the endless excitement about to unfold on the rest of your journey.
We highly recommend arriving a day or two earlier to experience all that this amazing city has to offer.
Day 2: Rome/Rapallo
Stop at Pisa to check out the Leaning Tower en route to the beautiful Italian Riviera.
Day 3: Rapallo
Walk the coastal path between Riomaggiore and Monterosso or opt to take the train. Visit charming, colourful towns along the way with an included national park pass and unlimited train ticket.
Day 4: Rapallo/Nice
Continue to the French Riviera and enjoy a free afternoon in Nice. Opt to go for a hike along the coast, or take a day trip to nearby beaches and villages.
Day 5: Monaco Day Trip
Take a day trip by train to nearby Monaco. Get your bearings with your CEO and set off on foot to explore the world's second-smallest country (only the Vatican is smaller). What it may lack in size it more than makes up for in style.
Day 6: Nice/Barcelona
Hop on a flight toward Barcelona. Join your CEO on an orientation walk of your surroundings before participating in a G Adventures supported tapas cooking class served and prepared by migrant students. Afterward, break off on your own to explore this amazing city. Enjoy a Big Night Out on the town.
Visit the old Gothic Quarter with its maze of dark streets, historic cathedral, medieval buildings, bars, and cafés. Stroll Las Ramblas, a large tree-lined pedestrian boulevard perfect for people watching and window shopping.
Day 7: Barcelona
Depart at any time.
We recommend staying an extra day or two to fully experience all this lively city has to offer.

Reviews
Adrian S - Traveled, September 2023
Great trip overall. Was worried about some of the accommodations (especially doing some research and reading some bad reviews about bedbugs and theft from staff). Also, I knew we would be travelling using trains, but I didn't realize there would be so many transfers in a day. lastly, I would',ve liked to know about the itinerary at the beginning of the trip so I could better plan. my days and things I would like to do instead of having to wait the day before to find out departure and arrival times. The trip was great overall. Lots of free time to myself and well thought out group events. met some great people.

Our tour leader was fantastic. Barbara spoke the local languages and had great local knowledge. She worked really hard to make our experience feel unique and authentic, rather than just hitting tourist traps.

Love the fact that everything is planned. However it was very fast paced trip. If someone is a leisure traveller I would not recommend, but if they are comfortable with high paced activity level I would.

Carlos. He was an awesome guide and super nice friend. Always outgoing and willing to lend a hand when lost. Give this guy a raise!

This was my first experience with G Adventures, so I have little point of reference but it really was an amazing experience. The only reason I couldn't score it a 10 was that when I travel with G Adventures again, I hope to improve upon it! I think if I can slow the pace ever so slightly and be more prepared for personal expenses next time, it',d be a 10!

This was my very first group tour experience. I was worried that I may have been better off doing everything on my own and going solo. I ended up having a wonderful time and gaining a lot of experience with a great group of people and CEO. Well done!

Great tour with lovely people! I enjoyed how much free time we had. I did think some things could have been a little bit more pre organised but this was my first ever tour so that's probably how it all works

It really is dependable on the travel style someone is after, ther would be some people I would not recommend this to as they are not after a fast pace tour.

I love how everything is organized and that you can turn off your brain when travelling because the CEO does all the thinking! However, the long travel days were brutal and some of the accommodation made it hard to relax after those long travel days
