Join Torah in Motion and Dr. Marc Shapiro for a unique and intellectually inspiring trip to Italy. We'll be visiting Rome, Tuscany, Florence, Pisa, Ferrara, and Venice. This trip promises to be an unforgettable Italian experience, with a focus on places of Jewish interest. A central feature of the tour will be Dr. Shapiro's expert discussions of the many places we will visit, making the trip nothing less than a travelling classroom. In addition, we will be joined by expert local guides who will provide their own angle. Before departure, Dr. Shapiro will send participants an educational packet that will be used on the trip. And of course, in addition to the special Torah in Motion educational and spiritual nourishment, our Journey Through Jewish History in Italy will feature: • luxury hotels in prime locations; • strictly kosher food; and • expert local tour guides for sites of general interest. Comments from the 2011 trip to Central Europe: "Beyond words... the degree to which all attempted to accommodate the group was superb."

"Thanks to Torah in Motion, we were able to view Italy from two perspectives. Marc taught us Jewish-Italian history, taking us to fascinating places few tourists get to see. Native Italian guides showed us the iconic sites of Rome, Florence and Venice. This made the tour a wonderful, educational experience."

Mady and Ethan Kra
"We truly enjoyed our recent trip to Italy.  Having a Jewish tour truly makes a difference… We had an incredible time on this tour…We would love to take another tour with Marc.  He is knowledgeable, friendly and totally willing to go out of his way to help those on the tour."
- Andrea Bier
"Marc has been such an inspiration to us all. We couldn't have had a more interesting, knowledgable guide. He has so much to share, relating one aspect of Yiddishkeit as we may know it now to other, historical practices, and taking us to walk in the steps of our Sages--including Galileo. Thank you for this tremendous opportunity."
