WHY ITALY?
Land of la dolce vita (the sweet life) - Whether you crave culture, gastronomy, cutting-edge design, sybaritic pleasures or simply the art of il dolce far niente—the sweet doing nothing—this is a country for lovers of all that is good in life.
A visit to Italy is a lesson in living well. Open-air vegetable and fruit markets, neighbourhood bakeries and fresh cheeses made daily are fixtures of Italian life.
Tradition reigns: Neighbors still meet in the piazza to discuss the day, laundry is still line-dried, even in the largest of cities, and the passeggiata (leisurely stroll) is still made in the evening air—preferably with a gelato in hand. From the mountains to the coasts, the emphasis is on simple pleasures and high quality.

EXCITING DESTINATIONS IN THE ITALY
ROME
Rome seems to have its own gravitational pull, attracting not only millions of tourists each year but also the most creative artists and thinkers of every era. All that surrounds a visitor in Rome—the stunning art and architecture, the terrible traffic, the grandeur of scale and the lively locals —guarantees an unforgettable trip.The ages are layered, one atop the other, but the flow of Roman life is ever forward
VENICE
Venice is set on islands connected by bridges. A Grand Canal acts as its main thoroughfare. Traffic moves by boats ranging from the traditional gondolas to refuse barges. But what makes Venice so unique also challenges its existence. Global rising sea levels threaten high tides from the Adriatic Sea, which can flood whole sections of the city. This means that our days of exploring this cultural gem are numbered
FLORENCE
One of the most beautiful cities in the world—and for many visitors, it is the most splendid. While travel to the city usually includes attractions, museums, palaces and churches that overflow with masterful paintings and sculpture, it is not limited to those interests. Visitors encounter the spirits of da Vinci, Dante, + the Medicis, and the days of the Renaissance seem close at hand. This place will undoubtedly dazzle
NAPLES
Naples is located in the beautiful Campania region, and many visitors use the city as a base to explore the surrounding areas, particularly Mount Vesuvius, the amazingly preserved cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, the Amalfi Coast and the island of Capri. Within Naples itself, historic sights are so numerous that you can't help but come across them. Then, of course, there's the food
SICILY
This is the largest island in the central Mediterranean, with some 25,711 sq km of variegated terrain. A mountainous island dotted with lemon, orange, almond and pistachio orchards.
Many powers have occupied, governed, and invaded this strategically important area. Historic sites related to these powers are part of the island's attraction. - but that's not all - reefs, olive groves, secluded coves and many seaside resorts
