Discover Italy

Why visit Italy?

Italy blends ancient history, art, and fashion with coastal landscapes and rolling countryside, offering a rich mix of cities, villages, and seaside escapes.

What to expect

You can wander Roman ruins, Renaissance streets in Florence, canals in Venice, and stylish neighbourhoods in Milan, then slow down in hill towns and along the Mediterranean coast.

Plan your trip

Italy works well for both first-time and repeat visits, with fast trains linking major cities and many regional airports that open up the Alps, islands, and lesser-known towns.

Best time to visit Italy

Spring shoulder season (April to June) brings mild weather across much of Italy, with daytime temperatures around 15°C to 24°C (59°F to 75°F), making it pleasant for sightseeing before peak crowds arrive. Summer peak season (July to August) is warm to hot, especially in central and southern regions, with typical highs from 27°C to 33°C (81°F to 91°F), and coastal areas feeling busier. Autumn shoulder season (September to October) offers comfortable temperatures of about 14°C to 23°C (57°F to 73°F), with fewer visitors and softer light that suits both cities and countryside. Winter low season (November to March), except in ski resorts and during festive periods, is cooler at roughly 3°C to 12°C (37°F to 54°F), ideal for quieter museum visits and city breaks.
