Today we're viewing Italy in a different light, from a sweet Palazzo in Rome to a romantic train journey that glides through green hills and azure coastlines. It's the Italy of poetry and piazzas, of espresso and elegance, of that ineffable thing the world calls La Dolce Vita.

Joining me today are my friends Simone Giorgi, General Manager of the stunning Orient Express La Minerva in Rome, and Marco Girotto, General Manager of La Dolce Vita Orient Express, the new luxury train that's redefining slow travel across the country.

We chat about the deeper meaning of La Dolce Vita for Italians, the artistry behind reviving a legendary brand, hidden corners of Rome and of the rails, and what makes travel through Italy as emotional as it is beautiful.

So pour yourself a Campari Spritz or a glass of Franciacorta, and enjoy this gorgeous journey on Luxury Travel Insider.
