Italy is one of the most popular destinations in all of Europe-and with good reason: while the ancient Romans conquered much of the world, the Italy of today captures its heart.
If you’ve never been to Rome before, your list of top attractions has to include the Forum, the Coliseum, the Vatican and much more-but the city also boasts numerous special events, including a summer long Opera series, a renowned Giotto exhibit and the celebrity-studded Roma Rock festival.
You’ll also want to visit Lombardy, to see Milan with its Romanesque architecture and Renaissance palaces.? Summertime activities include street fairs, food and wine festivals, concerts by favorite rock bands and more. And don’t miss the scenic lakes and countryside of the Po Valley.
And be sure to visit Naples-celebrated for its ancient traditions and fine food (it was Naples that gave the world pizza!) Unique experiences include the city’s Italian Theater Festival; and head to nearby Ravello for summer-long festivities featuring music, dance, video and literature.
BEST WAY TO GET THERE:
Rome is served by Leonardo de Vinci airport (FCO); Milan by Milan Linate International Airport (LIN), and Naples by Napoli Airport (NAP).
