Description:

Leave Venice behind for a journey through the charming Venetian countryside. Visit the enchanting towns perched on the hillsides before exploring breathtaking Palladian villas designed by Andrea Palladio. Complete your experience by savoring regional delicacies and wine at a local vineyard.

Relax and enjoy the stunning views of the Dolomite Mountains on your way to 3 enchanting towns: the medieval Marostica, famous for its living game of chess; Bassano del Grappa, a charming town where the spirit Grappa was invented; and Asolo, “the pearl of the Veneto,” beloved by poets and artists over the centuries for its charming gardens and renaissance palaces.

The elegant Palladian villas are a treasure of the Veneto area, designed by Andrea Palladio, one of the most influential architects in Western history. Follow your guide through the charming gardens of Villa Barbaro or Villa Emo, admiring the delightful frescoes of old country houses before making your way to a local vineyard for a wine tasting in this Prosecco-producing region.
