Italy

Stylish and sophisticated, but with the substance to back it up, Italy is a destination that you’ll never grow tired of. Italy boasts an abundance of historical riches, cultural charm, incredible gastronomy, and stunning scenery. Visit the architectural delights of Rome, the picture-postcard coastline of Amalfi, the enduring romanticism of Venice, or the pristine lakes of Garda, Como and Maggiore – there’s always something new to come back for.

Please note that the estimated temperature, rainfall and recommended months of when to go are based on Rome’s weather patterns
