Breathtaking countryside, beautiful old cities, the Amalfi Coast and, of course, renowned cuisine are all on offer in Italy, a favourite with honeymooners and families alike. Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance, has many treats for visitors. Brunelleschi's Duomo, the Academia - home of Michelangelo's David - and Ghiberti's bronze Baptistery doors to name just a few. Venice cannot fail to capture your imagination with its wonderful architecture, great cafe society and romantic gondola rides, not to mention archaeological sites and buildings, as well as fabulous shopping and dining.
Away from the bustle of the cities, Italy's countryside has enchanted travelers from around the world for generations. The stunningly beautiful Amalfi Coast stands out for its rugged cliffs, cascades of brightly coloured houses, lemon groves and olive trees on terraced hillsides, all tumbling down to an aquamarine sea. Tuscany is home to vineyards, cypress trees and rounded hills. The enchanting island of Sicily is full of art, history, breathtaking views and, as always in Italy, superb food.
