ITALIAN IN ITALY
COURSE OVERVIEW
There is no better place in the world to learn Italian than in Italy! You will have endless opportunities to put theory into practice while touring important sites, conversing with locals, even reading menus as we make our way around Italy.
Our journey starts in Rome, home to numerous iconic sites such as the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Vatican, and Trevi Fountain. Next we make our way to Florence where we will see Michelangelo’s David and the Ponte Vecchio. We end our trip in Milan, home to the headquarters of all of Italy’s luxury clothing brands and aptly named the Fashion Capital of the World.
