First Class Travel - What's Hot, Undiscovered & Fun in Travel

Luxury Holidays in Italy

July 8th 2010 02:19
What are the first images that come to your mind when you hear the word Italy? Is it the food, the wines, the scenic views or the romantism? Italy is quite a diverse country known for its good hospitality.

With so many options, some you should definitely keep in mind are cities such as Rome, Venice and Verona. Rome for obvious reasons -- so much History and monuments, the Pope and the Vatican, Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, and so on. You can also enjoy the romance (and perhaps even a honeymoon) in Venice and its famous canals, or get to know Verona and the land of Romeo and Juliet.


For all these reasons, Italy is the fourth most visited country in the whole world. If you have ever eaten a slice of pizza and wondered what it might taste like in its homeland, then you should definitely go there and see it for yourself.

Asides from pizza, you can taste delicious wines, some of the most delicious cheeses in the world, as well as bring home some beautiful, handcrafted souvenirs to share with your relatives parts of your experience.

Luxury Holidays and Activities

And if you are interested in luxury holidays, you may want to find out more about agriturismo -- although they carry a simplistic appeal, some of them can be quite fancy. One interesting amenity you might be able to experience are horse stables, but the most interesting part of staying in Italian rural areas is certainly the homemade food by Italian mammas.

Tuscany luxury villas are also very famous among those who wish to relax. These luxury estates are your best choice if you want to visit historical places such as Siena and Florence. Special Tuscan wines can be found nearby at the vineyards of Montalcino, while quality leather goods are found at the villages of Chianti.


One final tip: if you are traveling, remember to buy travel insurance. Downunder Insurance is a good company with Aussie staff, so check them out!
