Italy continues to be a popular destination for Excite Holidays' agents and their clients, particularly during the busy summer months, offering a fantastic mix of history, art, culture and food.
For an authentic taste of Italy, we've compiled our top 4 favorite spots to help you book your client's next Italian adventure.
Palermo
The capital of Sicily has a rich and varied history that includes Roman, French and Spanish influence amongst other occupiers over several centuries. This can be seen in the city's architecture, art and even the language. There are fantastic markets, gardens, eateries and beaches throughout the city, as well as easy access to day trips across Sicily.
Siena
Visitors to Tuscany will no doubt head straight to Florence, but Siena warrants inclusion on any vacation to the region. The narrow streets and grand Gothic structures are a sight to behold. Start with a visit to Il Campo, the city's main piazza, and explore the impressive Gothic cathedral.
Como
Located at the southern tip of Lake Como, the charming city of the same name still retains its historic 12th-century city walls and historic charm. Outside the city itself, the lake is the star attraction of the region. Hiring a boat is the best way to explore the villas and towns along the shores.
Portofino
This small fishing village on the Italian Riviera has long been a playground for the rich and famous. In the summer, the small harbor is filled with superyachts, and visitors can enjoy a drink by the water or a stroll through the designer boutiques.
