Best Time To Visit Italy

Italy is a fantastic destination year-round. The best time to visit depends on your plans. Spring and autumn are perfect for city trips and hiking holidays.

Culture, Or "Dolce Far Niente"?

Climb Mount Vesuvius 

Climbing to the nearly 300-metre-deep crater of Vesuvius is a must if you’re staying near Naples. You can drive up to 1,000 metres before parking and continuing on foot, or join a guided tour. The view from Vesuvius is spectacular, and the lava fields create an unforgettable atmosphere. 

Explore the charming coastal villages of Sardinia

The villages in Sardinia are considered some of the most beautiful in Italy. Time seems to stand still here. Take a tour across the island and let the charm of villages like Castelsardo, perched above the Gulf of Asinara, enchant you. Pack a picnic and enjoy.

Breathe in history at ancient sites

In Rome, you’ll encounter ancient history at nearly every turn, with the Colosseum being one of the major highlights. Beyond the capital, Roman culture is pervasive throughout Italy. Particularly impressive is the ancient city of Pompeii, buried after the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79.

Hike in the Dolomites

The Dolomites, with their distinctive peaks, steep cliffs, deep valleys, and clear blue mountain lakes, are some of Italy’s most beautiful mountains. The best way to experience this unique natural landscape is by hiking. The Dolomites also offer plenty for mountain bikers and climbers.
