St. Mary's Springs Academy tours Italy
This trip was smooth, memorable, and filled with highlights. As a seasoned group travel leader with MCI, I can say that Italy delivered once again — and I’m already looking forward to the next adventure
I recently returned from an incredible 7-day trip to Italy with a group of 50 students and adults. Our journey focused on two iconic cities — Rome and Florence — and MCI offered the perfect balance of history, culture, and unforgettable experiences.
In Rome, we explored the impressive Colosseum and the sacred Vatican. MCI provided us with knowledgeable and engaging tour guides.
Florence was equally breathtaking. We had the chance to see Michelangelo’s David. Our time in the city was filled with authentic gelato stops, strolls along the Ponte Vecchio, and shopping at local markets. It was a true immersion into the heart of the city.
Best of all, the students were fantastic — respectful, engaged, and genuinely excited to learn and explore. It’s a joy traveling with a group that brings such positive energy to every activity.
