Things to Do in Italy

From skiing in the Dolomites to swimming in the Mediterranean and from moonlight ride in Venetian gondolas to gallery hopping in Florence, there is a slew of things to do in Italy. The European country offers different strokes for everyone. Treasure troves such as Rome, Florence, and Venice house legendary masterpieces by the likes of Michelangelo and Botticelli entice art lovers; On the other hand, lyrical landscapes of Tuscany, Palladian villas of Veneto, and culinary delights of Umbria attract connoisseurs of all sorts from all over the world. Rich in culture & history and soaked in food & pleasure, Italian lifestyle is enviably sweet. Let’s take a closer look at the best things to do in Italy to savor the famed “La Dolce Vita.”

Go on sightseeing and day trips to chase down all the major UNESCO world heritage sites in Italy that include baroque churches, gothic cathedrals, historical towns, ancient city ruins, and classical monuments. The city of Rome is a showcase of the great Roman Empire. Pay a visit to the Colosseum, marvel at the ceiling of Sistine Chapel, toss a coin into Trevi Fountain, catch up with the locals and fellow tourists at the Spanish Steps, and hire a scooter to explore narrow streets of Trastevere. The list of things to do in Rome never runs out.

The world has changed, but Rome’s fabric is the same; it hasn’t bothered a bit to change because it doesn’t need to. Rome wasn’t built in a day so visiting the city in a day is simply not worth considering. Eating out in Rome, be it in a trattoria or an outdoor café, is one of the best things to do in Italy to make your Roman Holiday dreams come to life. For those wanting to feast like a Roman emperor must spend a weekend in Bologna. The city is famous for dishes like tagliatelle al ragù, cappellacci pasta, Parma prosciutto, and parmesan. Here, one can even learn how to roll a pasta or prepare a dough for pizza.

Venice is a city where roads are canals and cars are boats. Take a gondola ride to sail past beautiful buildings covered in luminous mosaics and pay a visit to the famous cathedral in Venice. Things to do in Florence are as rewarding as looking at Michelangelo’s David for the first time. In the Historic Center of Florence, which houses an unrivaled collection of artistic masterpieces, one can spend days on end digging out artistic delights. The Tuscan capital has a grandiose collection of cathedrals, squares, and cobblestone streets by the Arno River. After overdosing on art in the Uffizi Gallery, visitors in Florence should spend an afternoon strolling through Boboli Gardens and an evening by Ponte Vecchio.

Among other popular things to do in Italy include visiting fishing villages in Cinque Terre, climbing the cone-shaped Stromboli volcano in Sicily, driving along the Amalfi Coast to visit the seaside town of Positano, watching an opera at La Scala in Milan, planning a romantic weekend at a farmhouse in Umbria, skiing in Livigno during winter, and of course, eating a pizza or pasta whenever your stomach grows.

Junaid's 7 days trip to Italy

We planned our trip to Paris and Switzerland through Wise Yatra and it was amazing, everything was planned with our recommendation being considered. The help with regards to the Visa process was also exceptional. The Hotels given to us were also nice and the staff was helpful, they were also located near a transport connection, so it was easy to travel. We were also advised on which tickets to buy for convenient public transport. Also, all our attraction tickets were pre-booked and we were provided with Google map links to reach that point through our Hotels. The WiseYatra team was available on WhatsApp text throughout our trip for any queries. Thank you so much WiseYatra!!! for making our Honeymoon trip so unforgettable. Will definitely book another trip with them and would highly recommend it. Great trip

From the visa process to hotel bookings and sightseeing, everything was meticulously planned and executed smoothly. The Wise Yatra team was incredibly helpful and always available to assist us with even the smallest queries. Thanks to their excellent planning, we were able to visit all the places we had discussed in Spain, Italy, and Portugal. A big thank you to the entire team! We are excited to plan our future trips with Wise Yatra. Great TRIP

Jennifer Bahuguna Hyderabad

Ananya's 15 days trip to Italy

I was not happy with how few things were co -ordinated . Received the vouchers end moment leaving very little time to review . Infact the train voucher for venice was created for station very far off my hotel while there was a sation just at the walking distance (100m) from my hotel. I had to bear an expense of 50 Euro unnecessarlity for the transfer to hotel from station and i expected atleast a partial refund of my loss which never happened . Also, I had paid for the airport transfer for my return flight and its yet not reimbursed or acknowledged over mail. I just hada verbal and wats app communictaion with Yusuf. Regarding the entry tickets- considering Italy was extremely hot Collosium entry tickets were for 12pm noon , it could have been booked for an early evening or morning , I had to skip it as it was unabearbly hot . And there were lot of other gaps which i think should have been well communicated and discussed with me before they purchased the tickets (entry tickets)
