The most ideal trip would see you roam all of Italy’s beautiful sites; however, to list them all would be impossible, so here are our must-see places:
Venice
This beautiful city is famed for its many canals and bridges; seemingly untouched by the modern world, you will find that the buildings have been kept to their original design. It’s for this reason that Venice is a top choice for honeymoon holidays and romantic breaks. Make sure you park up your vehicle for the day and head out on a gondola tour along the Grand Canal.
Amalfi Coast
This breathtaking coastal drive is a real treat for tourists; there are lots of magnificent beaches to relax on and quaint towns to stop and enjoy a coffee at. The coastline was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997 due to its cultural sites and varied landscape. Here is where the lemons are picked to produce the liquor Limoncello; it is definitely worth a try whilst holidaying here.
Rome
This ancient city has a wealth of important historic sites that you must visit. From the Colosseum to the Spanish Steps, Rome is a city that has every camera ready. Italy’s capital city has amazing squares that are lined with shops that range from traditional souvenirs to high-end fashion labels. The city bursts into life in the evening; if you head down to the Trastevere district you will have your pick of lively bars and cosy all-night coffee shops.
Tuscany
A region that is home to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Renaissance city of Florence; Tuscany is perfect for exploring with your hire car. In between all of the historic cities you will find a landscape of green rolling hills and lush vineyards. Choose to stay in a traditional B&B or pick from a number of luxurious hotels; never has a region had so much to offer its visitors.
