After breakfast departure to Florence.
While Rome entices with its majestic monuments and big city grandeur, Florence captivates visitors in an entirely different way. This enchanting northern city is a maze of cobble-stoned medieval streets and picturesque red-roofed buildings where the Renaissance feels remarkably recent --or maybe just ever-present. This charming setting is virtually packed with landmarks, stories, and above all, art. Florence is the home of countless works by Renaissance artists; the famous Uffizi Gallery houses paintings by Botticelli, Da Vinci, and Caravaggio, to name just a few, while Michelangelo’s magnificent David stands only a few blocks away. So vast is Florence's collection of artworks that some overstimulated visitors actually succumb to the dizzying madness known as the Stendhal Syndrome. Of course, if the art becomes too overwhelming, Florence does offer other pleasures. Even a casual walk through the streets of Florence is a chance to enjoy lovely scenery and beautiful old churches. Tuscan cuisine is famous for its delicious simplicity, and excellent wine and espresso are in abundance. Like the canvasses and sculptures filling the museums here, Florence is itself a work of art.  Night at hotel in Florence.

And was it more, if you will be travelling in October, you will be able to visit River to River. Florence Indian Film Festival, an annual Indian film festival in Florence.

DAY 10: FLORNCE – ROME (290 KM)
After breakfast departure to Rome.
Italy’s capital is enormous, sometimes bewildering, often stunning and exhilarating. What else could one expect from a city that once ran a vast empire and now contains an entire separate nation, the heart of a major religion, within its borders? Though the empire crumbled long ago, the city is constantly vibrant. Standing in the city center by the Forum, it’s easy to feel that you’re living inside a giant postcard, with crumbling ruins on one side and the commanding sight of the ancient Colosseum rising above the rooftops on the other. The evidence of more recent history is also omnipresent here; most spectacularly in Vatican City, where people pour into St. Peter’s Basilica and Square and the famous Vatican Museums to worship, gawk and wonder at everything from the Pope to the Sistine Chapel. However, though aged sights are abundant in Rome, the city is anything but elderly, and it is certainly not tired. The fashion is high-class here, the shopping opportunities countless, the cuisine delicious, the gelato heavenly, and the traffic absolutely ferocious, in both speed and volume. If you want a fast-paced day of historical sightseeing or just a slow afternoon with a cappuccino, Rome offers both and everything in between. Rome, an extremely excitement city offers you also many important spots where Indian movies was filmed.
