One of the most prestigious Italian brands is Ferrari, the car that many people dream of driving. Now it is possible to enjoy the experience of a lifetime: drive a Ferrari From Florence to Maranello, through the charming roads of two regions – Tuscany and Emilia Romagna. A Ferrari Travel Director will support you during the tour, following you from the beginning to the end to explain all that you want to know about the Ferrari world and ready to help you in case of technical issues.

The itinerary includes a stopover in Maranello, a visit to the Museum of Ferrari, before heading back to Florence.

Fly over Rome in a helicopter

You’ve probably never seen Rome from above, so the third luxury experience could be a flight in a helicopter with a personal pilot. The tour starts with a private chauffeur that will take you to the “Urbe Airport”, where you will be invited to board the helicopter.

This very exclusive flight allows you to see Rome from a different perspective: Colosseum, St. Peter’s Basilica, the Imperial Forum, in all their magnificence. All these tours are planned by DragonFly Tours, a team of experts passionate about travel experiences; only a private guided tour will let you know the true essence of a destination.

Slope food in Alta Badia

Alta Badia, Italy

The South Tyrol (Alto Adige in Italian) is an area that is really attractive for a lot of tourists, thanks to its landscape, the ski slopes and the typical food, a mix between Ladin, Italian and Austrian influences. Combining all of these attractions is possible with “slope food”, an aperitif at the Dolomites.

A group of prestigious Italian chefs organize a series of aperitifs  during the winter season in the Alpine huts of Alta Badia, a nice way to taste the local specialties along with the finest wines from South Tyrol.

The slope food is the new trend for all the people who love mountains, snow and unique flavors.
