Rome
Rome is the capital of Italy and has been for over 2000 years. It is one of the most important cities in the world and is home to more than 7 million people. Rome's history can be traced back to its founding by Romulus, the first king of Rome, in 753 BC. Since then, it has been ruled by a number of different city-states and empires and has even been invaded by several foreign armies. While Rome is known for its rich history, it also has a modern side with many beautiful buildings and landmarks like St Peter's Basilica and The Colosseum.
Florence
Florence is one of Italy's most famous cities and is famous for its artworks, architecture and food. Florence was founded in the 12th century by Florentine traders but grew into an important city during the Renaissance period when it became an important cultural centre for scholars and artists alike. Florence was also home to many famous artists like Michelangelo who created some of the world's most famous sculptures, paintings and buildings such as The David Statue or The Pieta Sculpture. Florence also boasts some amazing museums such as Uffizi Gallery which contains over 3000 pieces from medieval times up until today.

Milan
Milan is sometimes disregarded as a travel destination on its own, despite the fact that its airport serves as a significant entry point for travellers. That's unfortunate because Milan is one of the cities in Italy with the highest concentration of creative and architectural sites, making a visit essential for anybody interested in design, fashion, or shopping. The likes of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Verdi, Enrico Caruso, Toscanini, and fashion designer Giorgio Armani have called Milan their home and place of employment. The enormous cathedral known as Il Duomo in Milan is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the entire world and the best example of Flamboyant Gothic architecture.
Lake Como
Since the time of the ancient Romans, who escaped the summer heat of Milan to cool off in villas along its rocky shores, Como, Italy's most picturesque lake, has been a popular summer getaway for the affluent and famous. Later villas adorn its compact cities, especially the lovely Bellagio, which is skillfully positioned at the intersection of the lake's three thin arms. The white summits of the Alps to the north may be seen amongst palm trees and camellias on Como's western shore thanks to a microclimate that keeps it mild even in the dead of winter. Before boarding a ship to tour the lake, don't forget to stop in the southern shore town of Como.

Amalfi Coast
Naples Bay's southern rim is formed by the steep, precipitous Amalfi Peninsula, which projects sharply into the Mediterranean just south of Naples. There is probably no more picturesque or improbable location for the towns that flow down its rocky slopes. Most of these charming communities have stairways for streets, and the homes there appear to be attached to the cliffs behind them. Everywhere there are blooming flowers, and below the villages are inviting beaches tucked away in emerald-colored coves. The town of Ravello is located high above the coast, where lavish gardens frame some of the best views of the coast. You may view the coast from the ocean by taking a 45-minute ferry ride from Sorrento, or you can drive down the southern coast on one of the most beautiful roads in the world, the Amalfi Drive.
Capri & Sorrento
Only 20 kilometres away from Sorrento, the mythical Isle of Capri rises in rugged cliffs from the Tyrrhenian Sea. The Roman emperors Augustus and Tiberius used it as a hideout, and now it draws a continuous stream of visitors who go there on the daily ferries and hydrofoils from Sorrento and Naples. Despite being quite small—just six kilometres at their longest point—Capri and Anacapri are located there. Smart stores and cafés in the lower town are where you can find people-watchers eager to spot a celebrity. The magnificent Villa San Michele and its grounds are located in Anacapri.
