Italy's Top 20 Adventures

Introduction

Italy's Top 20 Adventures

There are many reasons to visit Italy: museums and ruins, Florence and Venice, pizza and pasta. But if you dare to leave the well worn path you're bound to discover some of Italy's hidden jewels. Patient and curious travelers will discover villages that have hardly changed in the last 500 years, see wine and cheese in the process of being made, or walk on the stone-paved roads of the ancient Romans.

From sandy Mediterranean coasts to the rocky spires of the Dolomite Alps, each of these 20 trips reflects a different aspect of Italy's outdoor playground. Each of the itineraries can be followed in full or broken up into day trips. Whether you're in for the grand tour or just want to stretch your legs between a visit to a museum and a gondola ride, there's a trip here for you.
