Italy Travel Tips & Hints

Italy is one of the world's top travel destinations and offers a wide variety of things to see and do. Italy's wealth of artistic and archeological treasures is reflected in the fact that it has more UNESCO World Heritage Sites than any other country. From Roman ruins to picturesque medieval hill towns and Renaissance art and architecture, Italy can't be beat. Miles of stunning coast line, rolling hills, and mountains provide fantastic outdoor opportunities too.
