If you are after a trip with delicious food, wonderful sights and friendly locals Italy should be top of your list.
Language – Italian | Capital – Rome | Currency – Euro
We may have a soft spot for Italy, (thanks to the family heritage) but it is a truly incredible country to visit. With such a vast history, and an equally vast array of delicious food to discover, Italy is somewhere we visit at least once each year, spending anything from a long weekend to a couple of weeks exploring various destinations.
Our Top Picks in Italy
See the historic cities and more modern coastline as well as the mountainous valleys, beautiful lakes and of course the rolling countryside.
Eat all the pizza, pasta, and gelato you can get your hands on – there are different specialties depending on the region and often the towns and cities as well, so try them all.
Stay at quaint B&Bs throughout the country, these are perfect for slow exploring and staying with the locals.
