Where can I book a tour around Italy?

Basically I'm looking for a tour around the main town Italy, including Rome, Venice, Florence and Pisa later this summer. Where is the best place for this kind of book tour?

There a number of companies operating tours in Europe, focusing on either one of these countries like Italy or a trip around several countries. Trafalgar Tours is the one I use and recommend, and found them at a reasonable price, with good accommodation and interesting routes, but other are good. The best place to start is with a travel agent. It costs you nothing to ask a travel agent on the towers, and even if you book one by one agent, you only pay the normal cost tour.
