Then it's on to the peaceful town of Bassano del Grappa, synonymous with its production of the firewater of the mountains known as grappa! Crossing the celebrated Palladian bridge over the River Brenta, you will visit the famous distillery situated right on the bridge and have an opportunity to stock up on a bottle or two of grappa.
Your next stop on the tour is Asolo, spectacularly set in the cypress-clad foothills of the Dolomites. With its tiny archways, architectural details and castle of Caterina Cornaro, the Queen of Cyprus, it's no wonder Asolo is known as 'the pearl of the Veneto'.
Robert Browning was one of the many poets who fell in love with Asolo. There will be time for an optional lunch in this lovely town, either in an excellent local restaurant or, if you prefer, at the famous Hotel Cipriani.
