Essentials in Italy

Rome: The capital city that is as old as time, Rome. Located onto banks of the Tiber, Rome is a true capital and a must for every traveller in Italy. The city is famous for its sights from the Colosseum, the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, Roman Forum and the Vatican. Rest your feet by tucking into a slick of pizza or in the summer, a double helping of gelato.

Islands: Don't forget about Italy's glorious and heavenly islands, especially in the Adriatic. They're ideal in the summer although that's when they're the most crowded. With long beaches and irresistible culture, Sicily and Sardinia rival each other as the most beautiful.

South Tyrol: This region on Italy is not only popular in summer but also in winter. The north of Italy has so much to offer in each changing season, especially if you've got plans to go skiing. The majestic mountains beckon in winter while the trails and castles are easy to access in the summer with an Italy car hire.
