The 'Boot' is emerging as one of the world’s foremost cross over destinations, home to more than 500 species of bird, a number of mammals, delicious cuisine, internationally renowned wines, historic cities and villages and scenic countryside. Our tour is focused in the north west of Italy, encompassing the canals of Venice, the significant seaport of Trieste and the mighty Dolomites. Along the way, we shall spend our time birding, visiting a number of historical sites and enjoying fine wines and authentic local cuisine.
