In Timeless Journeys: The Italian Grand Tour you step into the shoes of Europe’s first true tourists. In the 18th and 19th centuries, curious minds crossed Italy in search of art, history, and inspiration, a rite of passage that shaped their legacy. From Turin to Palermo you will explore cities, debate in cafés, and fill your Travel Journals with discoveries that turn fleeting impressions into lasting achievements.
At its heart, the game blends deck building, card chaining, set collection, and route planning. Travel, Friendship, and Inspiration cards let you journey across Italy, meet locals, gather ideas, and commit them to your Journals. Playing cards of the same type reactivates earlier actions in powerful chains, while the shared market of Advanced Action cards expands your strategy.
In this game you will follow that same route. Travel cards move you from Venice to Florence, Rome, Naples, and beyond. Each journal entry in your Travel journal turns fleeting impressions into lasting Victory Points.
The game is played in 5 rounds. After the Famous Travelers phase and the Market phase of the 5th round are completed, the game ends and the player with the most Victory points wins.
