TOUR HIGHLIGHTLEGENDARY LIVES Stand in awe and wonder amid one of mankind's greatest artistic achievements in the Sistine Chapel. Hear how in 1508, a young Michelangelo was commissioned by Pope Julius II to decorate the chapel's ceiling - a request not welcomed by the 33-year-old sculptor. Michelangelo's 4-year project was indeed one of physical pain and psychological distress, while painting from scaffolds high above the sanctuary floor. Nevertheless, he created what is considered the most famous ceiling in the world, depicting the Creation of Adam in striking fresco style.ROME-COLOSSEUM.jpg

Not an easy decision in how you'll fill your cup or cone!FLORENCE-DUOMO-THROUGH-WINDOW.jpg

Also gracing the square is Doge's Palace - a masterpiece of Venetian Gothic architecture.
