Italy makes living the good life seem so simple. Picture yourself sipping a glass of red on a tour of Tuscany, catching the breeze on a ferry across Lake Garda, gazing at the pink-hued pinnacles of the Dolomites or marvelling at fabulous architecture in Florence.
Italy holidays ooze style, culture and effortless beauty - you'll see it in the seductive beaches of Sardinia and the Amalfi Coast, the jaw-dropping sight of Mount Etna and in the people themselves, who turn the business of everyday living into a true art form.
Majesty of the Italian Lakes
)
The Italian lakes are like something from a film-set with their flashy mountain backdrop and dramatic, curving shores. Great artists and poets have been inspired by them for centuries, and more recently they’ve become a must-have address for A-list celebs. This tour was designed to showcase three of Italy’s most loved lakes: Garda, Como and Maggiore over 12 memorable and easy paced days. Take it easy or pack it all in - this tour can be as active or relaxed as you want it to be.

The pastel-hued towns of the Sorrentine peninsula and Amalfi Coast are like something out of a 1950s postcard. Expect to see striped parasols lined up neatly on the beach, Vespas whizzing across piazzas and shady side streets lined with traditional cobblers, souvenir shops and embroidery workshops. The dramatic cliffs here are often terraced with groves of fruit trees, where supersize Amalfi lemons grow – try them in a delicious lemon tart, a scoop of gelato or a glass of sweet limoncello.

When's the best time to visit Italy?
There’s plenty to tempt you to Italy throughout the year. Winter sees a blanket of snow over the Dolomites (perfect for a white Christmas) while in summer, temperatures soar – ideal for escaping to the beach resorts. Spring and autumn can be lovely for exploring, with extremely pleasant temperatures in Puglia, Sicily and Sorrento.
Flight time from the UK to Italy varies depending on your destination, but will usually take 2-3 hours.
Italy is an hour ahead of the UK.
Italian is the official language, with a number of regional dialects. English is widely spoken in tourist areas.
