Italy
Trip Planning & Itineraries
Italy has it all: popes, painters, polenta, paramours, poets, political puerility and potentates. Its dreamy light and sumptuous landscapes seem made for romance, and its three millennia of history, culture and cuisine seduces just about everyone.
Each of Italy's major cities has its own enticing character. Rome is about grandeur, history and haste. Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, is a masterpiece of studied elegance. Venice is ethereal and mysterious. Milan has powerhouse pace. Italy is among the most popular countries in Europe, and there's a million good reasons why this is true.

The ancient capital of Rome is a good place to start exploring Italy. Take a hop on hop off tour to get oriented with the city and then head back to the must-see attractions: Vatican & Sistine Chapel, St Peter's, Colosseum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain. If you have more time take a day trip to Naples and Pompeii, Tivoli or Capri.
Venice is a city for walking - wander and look up at the buildings, the rooftops and the flower boxes, and the religious icons that pop up around so many corners. Wander into churches, turn down narrow side alleys, a take a ride on the Grand Canal. No trip is complete without a gondola ride and hoping over to Murano, Burano & Torcello.
Florence's Accademia Gallery and Uffizi Gallery are two of the world's most important art galleries. After your fill of art, discover fashion on a shopping trip to the Florence outlets. Located in Tuscany Florence also has access to its own share of wonderful Italian food and wine.

Italy: When to Go
Italy is at its best in spring and autumn. During these seasons, the scenery is beautiful, the temperatures are pleasant and there are relatively few crowds. Try to avoid August, as this is the time that most Italians take their vacations, and many shops and businesses are closed as a result.
