Caesar's Rome: We take a walking tour of Rome's ancient sights, from the Forum and Colosseum to the glorious Pantheon. Then, after exploring the catacombs and a cat hospice, we track down the best ice cream in Rome.
Florence: Bella Renaissance: No trip to Florence is complete without a visit to the masterpiece-packed Uffizi Gallery. And no painter better captured the revolutionary shift from Gothic symbolism to Renaissance realism than Sandro Botticelli, whose Birth of Venus stands at the center of this amazing array of art.
Venice by Gondola: For open air art in Venice, you need only to look at the canals. Sleek and graceful, gondolas are a symbol of this most serene city. On a gondola, romantics glide through their own parallel Venice, experiencing echoes of the past, and reflections of once upon a time grandeur.
Germany's Neuschwanstein Castle: At the foothills of the Alps, King Ludwig of Bavaria's fairy-tale castles attracts thousands of tourists each day. 'Mad King' Ludwig built the castle of his dreams, Neuschwanstein, a mere fifteen minute walk from Hohenschwangau, his boyhood castle home.
Switzerland's Cow Culture: Milk cows spend their summers munching wild herbs and flowers in the high meadows; their milk destined to become the treasured Alp cheese, or Alp Kase. Alpine farms welcome travelers for a peek at the cheese making action and each village takes pride in its own cheese.
