Whether you’re a sun worshipper looking for a relaxing break or a culture vulture looking to revel in the culture and history of the place, Italy has something to offer. Here are just three incredible things to do, during your stay.

Explore the Vatican in Rome

Rome itself is a must-visit when considering a trip to Italy. The capital is a wondrous location with something new to discover around every corner. One destination to make a beeline for is the Vatican building. A city in its own right, explore the halls of the building, taking in the magnificent artwork and relics that have been gifted to the Vatican or left behind in Rome. You’ll eventually reach the Sistine Chapel, take a moment to marvel at the intricately painted ceiling.

Ride a gondola in Venice

Heading to the city on stilts? A visit wouldn’t be complete without spending time in one of the famous gondolas on the water. Glide along, soaking up the sights of the city and get from place to place with ease.

Explore the ruins of Pompeii

Located near Naples, this once great city was engulfed by volcanic ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. You can book onto a tour of the site, which features exhibitions that tell visitors more about how Pompeii would have originally looked and features relics that were encased by ash and pumice and preserved.
