Italy

Holding the record for the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Italy is not a country to underestimate – from Northern Italy to the south, there are spectacular architectural gems and stunning landscapes around every corner. See an ancient city frozen in time and learn the story behind its tragic destruction with a visit to the massive archaeological site of Pompeii, or gaze at the glistening, clear waters of Lake Garda, the largest of the Italian lakes. Indulge in the hidden delights of Tuscany, exploring the monuments and fountains of its capital city, Florence, or pay a visit to the iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa – don’t forget your camera! For sun-dappled coastlines and the most incredible, traditional architecture, the town of Sorrento is a delight to explore. Home to the hugely popular Limoncello factory, visitors get an authentic look into the production of this signature drink. Food is also a huge part of Italian culture – and any holiday must include the traditional tastes of the country. With all of this to see and more, Italy is the perfect destination for you to find excitement, beauty and history.
