» Liguria excursions -One of Italy's smallest regions, Liguria stretches west in a narrow ribbon along the coast from France. Mountains separate it from Piedmont to the north, Emilia Romagna to the east and Tuscany to the south. Even if you've never been there, you've probably seen its northeastern border in all those movies where glamorous jet setters hop into their sports cars and motor from Monte Carlo to Rome: the quaint customs booths any foreign film lover knows well are outside Ventimiglia.
» Riviera excursions -Five miles of rocky coast in eastern Liguria, two promontories lie at each extremity, thousands of kilometres of dry walling, cultivated into vineyards, five southerly villages castled up on spurs of stone or disposed in clusters of very small inlets. These are the coordinates of the Cinque Terre (Five Lands).

» Turin excursions -Turin has not only been the capital of the Savoy Kingdom; it is also the capital of the motor car industry, of the Alpine peaks and of the cinema: precious collections, testimony to these facts, are housed in some of the most important museums in the city...
» Sicily excursions -Volcanos, Greek theaters, stark mountains, gentle seas, fresh-caught fish, heady rich wines - Sicily has it all. Encompassing the most variety of any of Italy's regions, Sicily also evidences the most contradictions.
» Calabria excursions - Calabria lies at the extreme south-west tip of Italy, reaching over to prod Sicily from across the Messina Strait. The region is bordered by the Tyrrhenian and Ionian seas, and boasts more than 800 kilometres of coastline.
» Puglia excursions -Puglia constitutes the heel of the boot represented by peninsular Italy. The "trulli" of Alberobello, the Gargano peninsula and the Eastern atmosphere of the mercantile cities define the portrait of an ancient territory, marked both by the architecture of its churches and of its castles, which are scattered throughout the western region.
» Amalfi Coast excursions -Amalfi is the principal jewel of the famous Amalfi Coast in Campania, Italy. The largest and most popular resort on this mountainous stretch of coastline, Amalfi is a popular holiday base for tourists wanting to explore the area. The Republic of Amalfi was once a major seafaring power, and the town's traditions and historical buildings bear witness to Amalfi's glorious past.
» Capri excursions -Capri is an island which some people love and some people hate. Those against the island are generally those who arrive for a daytrip, and find an expensive commercialised destination crammed to bursting with other daytrippers. Others, however, love the combination of island simplicity, natural beauty and busy glitz. And if you stay overnight, you'll find a different Capri. After the last daytrippers leave, a kind of exclusive peace settles over the island as those who are privileged to be staying overnight emerge for their evening passeggiata, or to sip drinks on the famous little square, the Piazzetta.
» Ischia excursions -Ischia hotels, bed & breakfast and apartments. Hotels range from budget to luxury.
» Naples excursions -In Naples, all the pride and resentment of the Italian south, all the historical differences between the two wildly disparate halves of Italy, are sharply brought into focus. This is the true heart of the mezzogiorno, a lawless, petulant city that has its own way of doing things. It's a city of extremes, fiercely Catholic, its streets punctuated by bright neon Madonnas cut into niches, its miraculous cults regulating the lives of the people much as they have always done.
» Positano excursions -Positano was once part of the powerful Republic of Amalfi, and played its part in international trading despite the lack of a harbour. Surviving Saracen raids, the town thrived and in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was famous for its trading with the East. Impressive palazzi were built; several are now romantically crumbling, others have been converted into luxury hotels. With the onset of the industrial revolution, harbourless Positano could not compete with rival ports, and had to wait until the birth of the tourist industry to regain its wealthy status.

» Arezzo excursions -Arezzo and Cortona are both found to the far east of Tuscany, Arezzo forming the third point of a triangle with Florence and Siena, with Cortona, barely in Tuscany, lying to the south of Arezzo.
» Chianti excursions -Chianti Area surroundings: Radda in Chianti, Gaiole in Chianti, Castellina in Chianti, Abbazia di San Galgano, Crete Senesi, Monteriggioni, Montepulciano, San Gimignano, Pienza, Val di Chiana, Montalcino, Val d'Elsa, Val d'Orcia...
» Siena excursions -Most famous for the annual Palio, it is a city of quiet beauty, and the cityscape is easily appreciated by strolling up and down the largely pedestrianised streets.
» Umbria excursions -Pastoral, hilly, and fertile, Umbria is similar to Tuscany, but with fewer tourists. Its once-fortified network of hill towns is among the most charming in Italy. Crafted from millions of tons of gray-brown rocks, each town is a testament to the masonry and architectural skills of many generations of craftsmen. Cities particularly worth a visit are Perugia, Gubbio, Assisi, Spoleto and Orvieto.
