Italy’s appeal extends well beyond its most famous destinations. Milan offers fashion, architecture, and artistic treasures, including Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper. Naples offers vibrant street life, rich history, and is the birthplace of Neapolitan pizza.
Other destinations, including Bologna, Piedmont, Sicily, and Umbria, offer opportunities to discover regional traditions and explore a different side of Italy.
Authentic Italian Food and Wine Experiences
Italy’s cuisine is as diverse as its landscapes, and exploring regional flavors can be one of the most memorable parts of a group tour. From Tuscany’s vineyards to the traditional kitchens of Bologna and Naples, food offers a wonderful way to experience local culture.
Depending on your group’s interests, a customized Italian itinerary may include:

Whether your group includes dedicated food enthusiasts or travelers who simply enjoy a memorable meal, culinary experiences can add a personal and delicious dimension to your journey.
Explore Italy’s Spectacular Coastlines
Italy’s coastal regions offer dramatic scenery, colorful villages, and a slower travel pace.
The Amalfi Coast and Sorrento
The Amalfi Coast is celebrated for its cliffside towns, sweeping Mediterranean views, and picturesque seaside setting. Depending on your itinerary, groups can explore coastal communities, enjoy scenic drives, or take boat excursions that offer a different perspective of the shoreline.
Nearby Sorrento provides another inviting destination, with beautiful coastal views, local shops, and opportunities to experience southern Italian hospitality.
Cinque Terre and the Italian Riviera
The five colorful villages of Cinque Terre are among Italy’s most recognizable coastal destinations. Connected by regional rail service and scenic walking routes, these UNESCO-listed communities offer memorable views of the Ligurian coastline.
InterTrav can help you determine how a visit to Cinque Terre fits into your group’s overall travel plans, taking transportation and accessibility needs into account.
