uncover the heart & soul of the nation

Many of Italy’s remarkable metropolises are famous the world over – not least beautiful Venice, dazzling Florence and super-smart Milan – but the country is also home to many lesser-known cities equally worthy of your attention. There’s Bologna – home to the globe’s oldest university and some extremely fine eateries; Parma, both historic and delicious; and up-and-coming Modena, another paradise for food-lovers. And to spend time in Trieste is to get to know one of Italy’s most atmospheric and underrated cities. Discover all these and more on a touring holiday in Italy.
