Italy Adventure for 4 Adults

About the destination: With an almost Northern European feel, yet radiating Italian style, Milan is Italy's most cosmopolitan city. The capital of Lombardy is both industrious and glamorous - influential in industries from finance to fashion and, of course, football. But what gives Milan its unique charm is its status as the epicentre of Italian fashion and interior design. International fashion enthusiasts, designers, supermodels and paparazzi flock to the city twice a year for its spring and autumn fairs: Milan, which has meticulously maintained its reputation for flair, drama and creativity, is Italy's natural stage. This is undoubtedly one of the best places in Italy to shop, or simply window shop. Milan is the primary industrial, commercial and financial hub of Italy and as such, it unsurprisingly has a business-like appearance. At first glance, it may lack the wow factor, but if you take the time and are determined to explore Milan’s streets, you’ll discover its aesthetically pleasing treasures – and they do exist. Navigate through the modern metropolitan hustle and bustle, and you will stumble upon impressive churches and palaces, the charming Navigli area, the stylish Brera district and vibrant university quarter, and it goes without saying that the city is home to landmarks such as the Duomo, and Leonardo da Vinci's 15th century masterpiece The Last Supper. Milan cannot be criticised when it comes to having a good time. The Milanese know how to celebrate – and they don’t waste time getting started. Nightlife tends to kick off at 6pm; enjoying an aperitivo in which locals unwind with post-work drinks and snacks before heading home is more the norm than the exception. So whether you’re looking for affordable fashion, an alternative city break or a chance to paint the town red, Milan has undoubtedly got it covered.

About the destination: Lake Como, nestled in the foothills of the Italian Alps, is one of Europe’s most enchanting lakes. Its deep blue waters are framed by dramatic mountains, elegant villas, and lush gardens, creating a postcard-perfect landscape at every turn. The lake is shaped like an inverted “Y,” with charming towns scattered along its shores, each offering a distinct atmosphere—from glamorous and sophisticated to quiet and traditional. The town of Como, at the southern tip, is an ideal starting point. Stroll through its historic center with medieval walls, visit the Gothic Como Cathedral, and take the funicular up to Brunate for panoramic views of the lake and surrounding peaks. From here, regular ferries connect you to other lakeside gems such as Cernobbio, Menaggio, and the iconic Bellagio, often called the “Pearl of the Lake,” where cobbled streets, boutiques, and waterfront cafés invite slow, leisurely exploration. One of the lake’s greatest charms is its collection of historic villas and gardens. Don’t miss Villa del Balbianello near Lenno, famous for its terraced gardens and appearances in films like “Casino Royale” and “Star Wars.” Villa Carlotta in Tremezzo is another highlight, with its impressive art collection and botanical gardens bursting with azaleas, camellias, and rhododendrons in spring. Many villas can be reached easily by boat, turning the journey itself into part of the experience. Beyond sightseeing, Lake Como is perfect for outdoor activities and culinary discovery. Hikers will find scenic trails leading to viewpoints and mountain refuges, while the lake offers opportunities for kayaking, sailing, and stand-up paddleboarding in summer. Food lovers can savor fresh lake fish, homemade pasta, and local specialties such as pizzoccheri and polenta, best enjoyed on a terrace overlooking the water. Whether you’re seeking romance, relaxation, or gentle adventure, Lake Como offers a timeless escape in the heart of northern Italy.

Its capital is the city of Verona. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The province is cosmopolitan in nature. It is bordered by Italian Tyrol in the north, Province of Vicenza and Province of Padua in the east.

About the destination: Modern and old, past and present go hand in hand, all the time. Whether you're in Rome for 3 days, 3 weeks or 3 months, be ready to step into the world’s largest open air museum. Rome will charm you and it will hardly leave you unmoved. It will surprise you, as it has so much to offer to any visitor, and its beauty has merely been slightly obscured by the passage of time. Rome is one of the world's most photogenic cities - not surprising when you remember what's here - The Vatican, the Trevi Fountain, St Peter's Square, Spanish Steps, Colosseum... Whether you spend your time sightseeing, or lounging in cafés watching the world go by, it will be your turn to star in your very own Roman Holiday. If you can plan to stay for as long as a week, you won't run out of things to do and you'll still feel like you're leaving too soon.
