Seasonal News

It is now time to get ready for the summer and yes we have suffered so much with the weather that the sun beckons.  For June, July and August why not find the perfect holiday and head to one of the many Italian beaches which are just waiting to be discovered or why not head to the Italian countryside or the mountains and discover the real beauty of Italy with its rolling hills mixed with a touch of wine tasting and a cooking lesson.  Go horse riding in the vineyards, learn how to make pizza and gelato, hire a Classic Convertible for the weekend with the wind in your hair, or why not take a tour on Lake Como with an original Riva.

Discover the sandy beaches of Sardinia, the limestone cliffs and seafront monasteries of Apulia, bathe in the wonders of Siena and the famous palio which is one of those 100 things to see before you die, head off the beaten track as there are still so many places which remain intact and untouched by tourism, small towns and villages, Italian islands…..

Summer is also the time for music. From the festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto, to the Umbria Jazz festival in Perugia which oozes music from ticketed performances to music on the streets, the Trasimeno Music festival in July, Estate Romana, the Verona opera, Music on Lake Como, the Puccini festival… to name but a few. Combine this with summer festivals like the Sagra di San Giovanni on lake Como where hundreds of tiny lamps float on the lake with firework displays in the evening (June), the same festival is also held in Florence with a medieval tournament followed by music, drinking and having a good time.  Add to this the Tuscan Sun Festival in Cortona, the celebration of La Madonna della Neve where snow is recreated with flower petals at the church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, the Festa della Madonna Bruna in Matera in July where a carnival atmosphere reigns and one of the best firework displays ever. There are so many more festivals available throughout the country which just adds to the excitement.

For that something unique, we are here waiting to introduce you.
