Italy

With its classical heritage, breathtaking landscapes and world-famous cuisine, Italy has become a destination 'di moda' with discerning travellers and is one of the most popular holiday locations in the world. Every year, millions flock to the ancient ruins of Rome, the canals of Venice, the fashionable boutiques of Milan and to its lakes and countryside.

A major component of any holiday in Italy is the discovery of its many gastronomic treats. From the far north-eastern region of Alto Adige reflecting the influence of its neighbour Germany, to the southernmost tip of Sicily, close to Africa, a journey down the 'boot' of the Italian mainland and across to its islands offers infinite variety to the hungry traveller.
