Your Guide to Italy
YOUR GUIDE TO ITALY
Italy has specialised in luxury tourism for two millennia. Roman emperors gorged on seafood on Ponza Island, an only-by-boat Mediterranean escape. Grand Tourists like Lord Byron took inter-island swims in the Cinque Terre National Park. Audrey Hepburn soaked up La Dolce Vita on her Roman Holiday. Every day is an epic.

But take note. In Italy history doesn’t reside in museums. It lives in rococo cafés, timeless recipes and scandalous graffiti from 2,000 years ago. It lives in the Florence skyline, in Tuscan vineyards and on the Ferrari test track. We’ll arrange all those experiences for you.
Your Guide to Italy
Fancy finding Italy’s best beach? You’ll have fun trying. Scattered across 7,500km of coastline are curvaceous coves, silverine swooshes and big yellow bananas of sand. Make the first footsteps at dawn with the aid of a seascooter or jetski. Or ask crew to construct your own private beach club (with loungers, barbecues, rugs, snugs, cocktail bar and beach tennis) in advance. Click your fingers and it’s done.
Reasons to Visit
REASONS TO VISIT
Maximum Security Jail Islands. A dozen of Italy’s 450 islands served as a sunny Alcatraz. Unwittingly, prison status protected nature. Asinara Island near Sardinia (once a Mafia penitentiary) is now a National Park with wild horses, albino donkeys and a census population of 1. Santo Stefano Island (an ex-political prison) near Capri has been abandoned to giant groupers and curious sailors since 1965.
You’ll tour coastal archeological sites by Segway, scuba and SUP. You’ll be welcomed at island restaurants with biodynamic wines, ‘locavore’ ingredients and Michelin-starred chefs in their twenties. This is the nation that pioneered fast cars, high fashion and the humble pizza. There’s a slice of heaven waiting for you.
