Italy

Uncover ancient history, gastronomic delights and romantic country life


With a reputation for world-class food and wine, delightful vistas and fascinating historical sites, we’re sure we don’t need to sell Italy to you! A country of romance, art, history and fashion, this country is the ultimate European destination and one you’ll want to return to time and again.


You’ll want to take your time discovering Italy; it’s many distinctive regions are best explored at a leisurely pace. Rome is an absolute must-visit for the history round every street corner and bustling atmosphere. However, if you can, make an escape for the countryside and explore the smaller towns and villages dotted throughout the country. Tuscany and the Cinque Terre attract a multitude of travellers every year - and for good reason - but we’d encourage you to get off the beaten track and find those smaller places where you’ll find a taste of authentic Italian life. Don’t forget to brush up on your Italian before you go, so you can connect with locals à la Eat Pray Love


Our consultants do their best to create travel experiences unique to you, and will use their expertise and knowledge to craft the perfect Italian holiday.

Tips and advice from our travel advisors

A lot of other people will be running around trying to get into that museum, look at the church, go into that shop. Enjoy those moments of being in a small Italian town drinking red wine and eating tiramisu.

Montecassino is well worth a visit if you are a war-buff or interested in history, the abbey has been beautifully restored and is very eerie in the mist. Self drive, or by train is easily accessible and surrounded by vineyards!

Villa Medici is at the top of the Spanish Steps, with a beautiful garden, art and a great view of Rome with less tourists for something different.
