Gib and Madeline Fenters spent 10 unforgettable days honeymooning through Italy during the winter season, experiencing three of the country’s most iconic cities: Venice, Florence, and Rome. Traveling in the winter allowed them to enjoy cooler temperatures, fewer crowds in many areas, and a more relaxed pace while still seeing Italy’s most famous sights. Their itinerary was carefully designed to balance guided experiences, culinary highlights, and seamless transportation between cities.
In Venice, they stayed in a beautifully located hotel that quickly became a favorite, especially after long sightseeing days. A hands-on cooking class set in the back of a local restaurant was a highlight of their time there, offering an intimate and authentic experience they loved. Florence brought incredible food-focused touring with a knowledgeable guide who introduced them to flavors and dishes they never would have tried on their own, along with day trips into the surrounding countryside. Traveling by train in business class made moving between cities comfortable and stress-free. Rome quickly became their favorite stop, with its grand scale, history, and unforgettable landmarks. From the Vatican to the Colosseum, their guided tours were easy to navigate, well-organized, and allowed them to fully appreciate the beauty and history of the city.
“Our winter honeymoon in Italy was an amazing experience, and we loved getting to see Venice, Florence, and Rome all in one trip. Rome ended up being our favorite — it was big, beautiful, and unforgettable. We really appreciated how everything was planned out so we could just enjoy each city without worrying about logistics. The food tours and experiences were some of our favorite moments, and traveling by train in business class made a huge difference. Overall, it was so nice not having to plan anything!”
