Arrive in Venice and transfer to your hotel in Rivarotta Pasiano Pordenone. Once a Benedictine convent dating back to 1000, Villa Luppis was first extended in 1200 by Camaldolese monks. Immersed in a five hectares private park, this elegant country residence is the ideal starting point to discover the Veneto region. Richly decorated in both natural and man-made treasures, its varied landscape ranges from the Venetian lagoon near the Adriatic Sea to rolling hills dotted with world renowned vineyards, and stretching up into the magnificent Dolomites mountain range. Tonight enjoy a welcome drink followed by a gourmet dinner at the hotel. (D)

Start your day with a visit of the lovely city of Treviso. Featuring breathtaking vistas in the foothills of the Alps, overlooking the surrounding valleys, Treviso has become popular with wine aficionados and travelers who wish to explore Italy’s distinctive and only “authentic” Prosecco region firsthand. Once considered “the Garden of Venice”, Treviso is a peaceful and idyllic town full of romantic canals, elegant bridges and arcaded streets. Free time for lunch on your own. In the afternoon you will enjoy a wine tasting session at a magnificent Venetian-style Castle winery, one of the most prominent examples of rural heritage of the Venetian region. Tonight, enjoy a gala dinner accompanied by live music at your hotel. (B,D)

The day is yours to relax by the pool or to enjoy some retail therapy. The McArthur Glen designer outlet village is just 15 minutes away from your hotel (transportation will be provided). Take advantage of an additional 10% discount while shopping famous Italian and international brands such as Armani, Valentino, Gucci and many more. Tonight, enjoy a wine tasting session held by the hotel’s sommelier in the original 13th century ice cellar. Its shelves, stairwells and platforms were built to easily store and access the extensive collection of bottles, with the whites being kept below the reds, where the temperature is lower. End the day with a gourmet dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. (B,D)

Your visit of the Veneto region wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Venice, the city of magnificent marble palaces on a lagoon. Just like its world-famous Carnevale, Venice thrives on mystery and awe, from the secret passageways that riddle Gothic Palazzo Ducale, to the esoteric powers of the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, and to Saint Mark’s Basilica, recognized as one of the most refined and accomplished works of Byzantine craftsmanship in the world. This afternoon visit a local winery. See the barrel-stocked cellars and learn about Veneto’s wine history and its typical grape varieties before enjoying a wine tasting session accompanied by homemade appetizers served up with expert insights from your winery host. Dinner at the hotel. (B,D)

This morning, join the Villa’s chef for a hands-on cooking class featuring traditional northern dishes, and then sit down to lunch. Afternoon at leisure. In the evening, you will be driven to the lovely nearby town of Oderzo. Enjoy a “spritz” aperitif, a longtime staple of local bars, before having dinner at a local restaurant. (B,L,D)

This morning you will visit the Mosaic School in Spilimbergo. Established in 1922, it currently has a student population of about 100, with students coming from about 20 countries. Next stop will be in San Daniele del Friuli for a visit of a Prosciuttificio (ham factory). San Daniele ham is the pride of the area, and is well known all over the world by gourmets who appreciate its sweet and refined taste. Enjoy lunch in the prosciuttificio restaurant, before heading to Villa Manin. The centennial history contribute to making this residence the most significant example of the culture of the Venetian villa in the region. Here you will visit the Armory, a museum housing a splendid collection of weapons and armors from different parts of the world. Tonight enjoy a delicious barbecue-style dinner at your hotel. (B,L,D)

Morning transfer to the airport for your return flight home. (B)
