Vintage Rides and Pasta Moments in Rome
The adventure begins at nhow Roma, a hotel known for its bold spirit and modern design. Guests hop into Vespa sidecars for a breezy sweep through Rome’s cobblestone alleys, making relaxed stops for gelato and prosecco. The experience leans into whimsy and nostalgia; perfect for those who love a travel moment that feels effortless yet unforgettable.
For something more off-script, the Escape Roma – The Secret of the Eternal City experience pairs local legends with playful exploration. A history enthusiast leads guests through quirky urban clues, hidden corners and the city’s animated talking statues, all while riding in eco-friendly vintage Fiat 500 electric cabrios. The day winds down with a hands-on cooking class, where learning to make fresh pasta becomes the sweetest way to end a Roman afternoon.
Venice: Craft, Culture and Sunrise Magic
The second chapter unfolds at Avani Rio Novo Venice, where Italy’s rich artisan culture takes centre stage. In a private garden atelier, guests join Augusto, the renowned Hollywood mask maker whose creations have graced Gossip Girl and Batman. His baroque-inspired workshop turns creativity into a keepsake worth treasuring.
A short ride to Murano brings travellers face-to-face with master glassmakers who collaborate with luxury houses like Fendi. Shaping molten glass alongside artisans who have honed their craft for generations feels intimate and grounded, offering a rare glimpse into Venice’s creative heritage.
For early risers, the sunrise running tour is a serene highlight. Guests move through quiet canals and empty piazzas before the city wakes, creating a memory that feels both cinematic and deeply personal.
Fashion, Energy in Milan
The finale lands in Milan, the heartbeat of Italian style. At NH Collection Milano CityLife, the vintage shopping tour serves as a love letter to classic fashion. Guests sift through pre-loved gems from Valentino, Chanel and Miu Miu, discovering pieces that capture the bold, stylish mood the city is known for.
Beauty takes the spotlight next at City Lab Cosmetics, where travellers enter a high-tech laboratory to craft personalised lipsticks or skincare products. It is a moment that feels equal parts editorial and empowering; the type of experience that leaves you feeling confidently camera-ready.
A Travel Story Worth Sharing
Available from November 2025 to June 2026, Chic in Italy: Set-Jet Stays turns three iconic cities into a curated adventure stitched together with meaningful, stylish moments. The six-night package starts from EUR 1,024 per person, based on two guests sharing, and includes breakfast at all three hotels, a Roman cooking class, a Venetian sunrise run and a Milanese beauty workshop, with optional upgrades for those who want to personalise their story even further.
For travellers seeking a journey that feels cinematic, creative and irresistibly chic, this is an Italian escape worth bookmarking.
