Follow us on a journey to the region of Emilia-Romagna in central Italy where we find bustling Bologna, home of the oldest university in Europe, miles of porticoes and popular culinary traditions including fresh handmade pasta, lasagne and bolognese meat sauce. This delightful city never fails to surprise first-time visitors for its lively university vibe and picturesque porticoed streets. We’ll also travel to nearby Parma, home of the celebrated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and Prosciutto di Parma as well as stunning artistic monuments, followed by a stop at Modena for a taste of the city’s world famous balsamic vinegar and peek into the gorgeous Romanesque cathedral.

While in the area we have a chance to visit the iconic luxury car factories of Ferrari and Lamborghini that are produced in this region – both feature fascinating museums and the chance to test drive your dream car. There’s something for everyone as we explore the sights, sounds and tastes of this lovely part of Italy with Jennifer Cowden, Italy travel specialist, art historian and long-time resident of Tuscany.

Streets and public spaces of cities were the primary arenas for social encounters, business transactions, political, commercial, and everyday interactions. What was street life like for the average Florentine in the 15th century?

You might be surprised to find fundamental similarities between our lives today and the lives of Florentines living over 500 years ago. Join art historian Elaine Ruffolo as she paints a full portrait of street life in Renaissance Florence.
