Made in Italy

If you are looking for a romantic getaway or want to experience culture and cuisine at an extraordinary level, take the next flight to Italy. You only have to turn a corner to see a famous painting, a great monument or an extraordinary sight.

Start your tour of Italy in its capital, Rome, but don’t stop there. Other top destinations include Cinque Terre with its on the rocky coastline, fashion capital Milan, Florence, known for its architecture and art, and lesser-known (but extremely historical and interesting) Ravenna.

Italy’s islands are unforgettable as well. You can climb Mount Etna in Sicily, ride a gondola in Venice, buy handmade lace in Burano, and watch them blow exquisite Venetian glass on Murano.

Visit a Renaissance art museum, attend an opera, hike the Dolomites, visit Pompeii to explore history, sip limoncello on the Amalfi coast. The experience in Italy is simply exhilarating.
