Europe Italy
Benvenuti in Italia
Italy combines hospitality, a way of life and a cuisine that ranks among the best in the world. The Eternal City of Rome and the hills of Tuscany stand for culture and history, the islands of Sardinia and Sicily for coastline and independent character, and the mountains and lakes of South Tyrol for active days in the Dolomites. On the Amalfi Coast and in the villages of the Cinque Terre, the landscape drops steeply into the sea, while historic cities and small towns often lie only a short drive apart. Whether as a self-drive journey or a private tour, on a tailor-made trip you experience Italy at your own pace, with carefully chosen hotels and restaurants that match your wishes.
- The ideal time to travel varies by region: the north, home to the Dolomites, is best enjoyed from June to September for alpine pursuits; Tuscany reveals its charm in spring and autumn at a pleasant 18-25 °C; and the south, including Sicily and the Amalfi Coast, invites leisurely days from May to October at 25-32 °C.
- For your arrival, numerous direct flights connect Frankfurt, Munich and Düsseldorf with Italy in around 2 hours; alternatively, comfortable high-speed trains such as the Frecciarossa link the major cities within just a few hours.
- You can experience Italy either as a self-drive journey with your own car or a rental car, or as part of a private tailor-made tour or small-group trip.
- Italy can be enjoyed as a stand-alone destination or combined ideally with Sicily, Sardinia, the French Riviera or Croatia.
- Italy ranks among the countries with the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites worldwide – together with China, it leads the global list with around 55 sites.
