‘In fair Verona, where we lay our scene’… There’s a reason Shakespeare chose an Italian city as the setting for Romeo and Juliet. Italy was made for two. From culture-rich towns and cities to Tuscan vineyards and the picture-perfect Amalfi Coast, the options for an Italy romantic holiday are endless. Relax on sunny beaches, explore quaint villages or indulge in Italian gastronomy. Just picture yourself and your other half tucking into a large gelato with two spoons, or sharing a bowl of spaghetti Lady and the Tramp style. Whatever your style of romance, our Italy experts will customise the perfect holiday for you.

Italy Romantic Escapes Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

Our Italy experts will create an Italy romantic holiday that’s unique to you and your other half. But just to give you some inspiration, here are a few experiences you might enjoy on your trip:


Indulge your inner sommelier

No Italy romantic holiday would be complete without a trip to a vineyard. Tuscany, Italy’s most famous wine region, is a landscape of rolling hills and incredible views. It’s home to the notable Sangiovese variety of wines: Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Enjoy a wine tasting to sample all these local varieties and maybe buy a few bottles to bring home with you.


Potter around Positano

Positano is arguably the most iconic village on the Amalfi Coast, a strip of coastline so spectacular it’s been granted UNESCO World Heritage status. With the Mediterranean Sea to one side and the peaks of the Lattari Mountains to the other, Positano’s colourful architecture is scattered up the cliffside, with incredible views out to sea from the top. Spend your Italy romantic holiday exploring the town, its markets and local water-side restaurants.


Escape to the lakes

Italian lakes are a sight to behold. Lake Como and Lake Garda may be the most famous, but they are certainly not the only ones worth visiting. Whichever you choose on your Italy romantic holiday, you’ll be treated to the beautiful contrast of a dramatic mountain backdrop and peaceful, glistening waters. For the more adventurous or sporty couple, the lakes also offer all kinds of water sports to try.
