North Italy Tour with Turkish Airlines New Year's Special 3 Nights 4 Days 2027
Day 1: Istanbul – Milan
Gathering at the Turkish Airlines counter in front of the Istanbul New Airport international departures terminal at 05:00. After check-in procedures, we depart for Milan on Turkish Airlines scheduled flight TK 1873 at 08:15. Upon arrival at 09:05, we begin our Milan city tour with our waiting bus. Milan is a city that is more stylish than attractive and wealthier than creative. Undoubtedly, it is the lifeline of Italy's economy and one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. During our Milan city tour, we will visit Castello Sforzesco, one of the city's historical monuments, and Galleria, which left its mark on the 19th-century industrial revolution and is also known as Europe's first indoor shopping mall. The famous French engineer Gustave Eiffel was inspired by this location to build the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The Duomo, where Gothic art can be seen intensively, is the fourth largest church in the world with its exterior facade adorned with over 2,000 statues. On Via Monte Napoleone and Via La Spiga, known as the center of fashion, you can admire the richness of the shop windows. After our tour, guests who wish may join the Como Lake and Town Tour. We then proceed to our hotel for overnight stay.
Extra Tour: Como Lake and Town Tour - 50 Euro per person
Located approximately 1.5 hours from Milan, Como Lake is a pleasant area known for its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. During this tour, we reach the town of Como, take a short walk with our guide, and then provide free time for guests to shop and explore.
Day 2: Milan – Pisa – Florence – Montecatini
After breakfast, we head towards Florence. Guests who wish may join the Pisa Tour along the way. Florence, historically known as the birthplace of the Renaissance and a city that shaped European art and intellectual history, is not only one of Italy's most important cultural centers but also one of the world's most significant. Under the patronage of the Medici family, this city became a center where many geniuses such as Dante Alighieri, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, and Botticelli were born and created their works. It has also played a pioneering role throughout history in banking, textiles, and art, and once served as the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. In our city tour, we will visit Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral (Duomo), one of Florence's masterpieces combining Gothic and Renaissance architecture; the Baptistery with its impressive facade; Giotto's Campanile; Piazza della Signoria, considered the political center of the city; Palazzo Vecchio (Signoria Palace) in the square; Loggia dei Lanzi decorated with sculptures; Uffizi Square, home to world-famous collections; Ponte Vecchio Bridge, noted for its historic and elegant structure over the Arno River; Piazza della Repubblica, blending the city's modern and historic fabric; and San Lorenzo Market, known for local products.
Extra Tour: Pisa Tour - 50 EUR per person
We will have the opportunity to see the iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa up close. During the tour, we will visit the Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles), listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site; our guide will provide information about the Pisa Cathedral, the Baptistery, and the Leaning Tower from the outside. After the tour, guests will be given free time for photography and exploring the surroundings. You can capture unforgettable moments in front of this symbolic tower, one of the most photographed structures in Italy.
Day 3: Florence – Verona & Garda – Venice
After breakfast, we head towards Venice. Guests who wish may join the Verona & Garda Lake Tour along the way. After the tour, we proceed to Venice. From Tronchetto port, the final access point for vehicles, we take a vaporetto to the historic island. After a pleasant vaporetto ride, we disembark near St. Mark's Square, the historic center of the city, and begin our canal tour. This car-free city has replaced all vehicles we are accustomed to seeing in daily life—police cars, ambulances, garbage trucks, municipal buses, etc.—with boats. Walking from the Riva degli Schiavoni to St. Mark's Square, you can see the Venice Prison and the "Ponte dei Sospiri" (Bridge of Sighs), which connects the prison to the Doge's Palace; directly opposite the bridge is San Giorgio Island; in the square on the main facade of the Doge's Palace, you can see the twin columns serving as the city's entrance gate and the statues of Venice's symbol atop these columns. The square where St. Mark's Basilica stands was named by Napoleon as "the most beautiful square in the world." Although the construction of the cathedral was completed in the 9th century, it did not take its current form until the 17th century. The four bronze horses you will see on the main facade were brought from Istanbul after the Second Crusade. During your free time, you can watch the statues on top of the clock tower strike the bell every hour and climb the Campanile to enjoy a panoramic view of all Venice. Additionally, guests who wish may join the Extra Burano Island Tour. After the tour, there is free time. Later, we proceed to our hotel, distribute rooms, and spend the night at our Venice hotel.
Extra Tour: Verona & Garda Tour - 50 Euro per person
We will see the former palace of the Veronese Duchy, which remained under the rule of the Venetian Republic for centuries; Erbe Square, still used as a market today as in history; and the second-largest amphitheater in Italy after Rome's Colosseum, located in Erbe Square. Passing through Verona's shopping streets paved with marble to display its wealth, we will see the palace where Dante Alighieri lived during his exile. After viewing the Scaligero family tombs that ruled Verona, we will see the house where Romeo and Juliet, who inspired English playwright William Shakespeare, were born, from a panoramic viewpoint. After a short free time, we head towards Lake Garda, Italy's largest lake.
In Garda, enchanted by its natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and lake views, you can take walks by the lakeside, photograph breathtaking landscapes, and enjoy the cool breeze.
Extra Tour: Burano Island Tour - 35 Euro per person
Burano Island, the most colorful corner of the Venetian Lagoon, has a magical atmosphere with its brightly colored houses and tranquil streets. As a favorite spot for photography enthusiasts, after a short walk with our guide, guests will have free time. You can browse Burano's famous handmade lace, stroll among the island's pastel-colored houses, and enjoy a coffee break by the water. With its silence, simplicity, and fairy-tale appearance, Burano will add a quiet yet unforgettable memory to your Venice trip.
