In addition to providing accredited college-level courses, we take you to more than 10 cities in just four weeks! Select Study Abroad prides itself on knowing Italy inside and out - from the most popular cities to the less visited countryside. However, we simply will not be satisfied taking you to the same list of sites you'd find in your average guidebook. A Select trip strives for a truly unique mix of the popular must-see sites and the best-kept secrets of any Italian city. When you're done, you may even know these places better than most Italians!
Each and every Select Summer Session will include the following trips, including transportation, hotel accommodations, activities, museums entrance fees, and more.
- Rome, Tivoli & Pompeii (2 nights, 3 day)
- Venice & Verona (2 nights, 3 days)
- Cinque Terre
- Pisa
- Lucca
- Siena
In addition to travel outside Florence, Select organizes countless activities in Florence such as food tastings (gelato, olive oil, coffee), site visits (palaces, museums, churches, gardens), demonstrations (leather-making, glass-blowing), and late-night entertainment (live music, dancing, karaoke). Select students have the unique opportunity to enjoy private evening visits to the Accademia (home to Michelangelo's David) and the Uffizi Gallery (home to Botticelli's Birth of Venus and Leonardo da Vinci's Adoration of the Magi). Select Directors welcome activity or event suggestions from students with special interests, as well as incorporate flexible free time into the summer schedule. All activities are optional and included in the program cost. Less
