Top Things To Do

Top Things To Do: • In Rome, wander around the district of Trastevere, the city’s alternative focus which is home to numerous bars, restaurants and nightclubs.

• Go shopping in Milan(Milano), Italy's most sophisticated city.

• Learn a new skill: Italian language and art courses are available throughout Italy. Language courses are often complemented by subjects such as cooking or architecture. Art courses are offered by the PalazzoSpinelli (website: www.spinelli.it) and UniversitàInternazionaledell’Arte (website: www.uiafirenze.com) in Florence.

• Rejuvenate at one of Italy's thermal spas, some famous since the Roman era. The best-equipped health resorts are AbanoTerme and MontegrottoTerme (Veneto); AcquiTerme (Piedmont); ChiancianoTerme and MontecatiniTerme (Tuscany); Fiuggi (Lazio); and PorrettaTerme and SalsomaggioreTerme (Emilia-Romagna).

• Do not miss the chance to wear an elaborate costume and mask at the VeniceCarnival (website: www.carnivalofvenice.com).

• Head to the coast: all types of watersports are available. Popular spots include the ItalianRiviera in Liguria, the Adriatic and Amalfi coasts. Less busy are the beaches in Sicily, which has large sandy stretches on the southern coast, and in Sardinia.

• Get wet: many of Italy’s best dive sites are located in Sardinia, while Italy’s first surfing school is based in Mauro.

• In Capri, one of Italy's most visited islands, take a boat trip from the Marina Grande to the BlueGrotto.

• Go skiing in the Italian Alps. To the west of Turin, in the Piedmont region, major resorts include Bardonechia, Sauzed’Oulx and Sestriere. Further north, the Aosta Valley’s resorts include Cervinia, Courmayeur and LaThuile. Italy’s most upmarket resort is CortinaD’Ampezzo in the Dolomites.

• In the Valled'Aosta region, go hillwalking or climbing in the GranParadisoNationalPark and MontAvicRegionalPark, home to wildlife including the chamois and ibex. The Dolomites on the Swiss border are also ideal for hiking and climbing.

• Look out for Marsican brown bears (unique to Italy), wolves, chamois and eagles in the NationalParkofAbruzzo. In the Molise region, the Matesemountainrange is still the haven of wolves and various birds of prey.

• Make sure to see a barebackhorserace on PiazzadelCampo in Siena. The event, known as Palio, dates back to the 13th century and is held twice a year, in July and August, attracting crowds from all over the world.

• Go mushroompicking in Calabria, the toe of the ‘boot’, a spectacularly beautiful region of high mountains and dense forests. Porcini (boletus edulis), fresh and dried, adorn the shelves of all the speciality shops of the region.

• Visit winecellars in Tuscany. The landscape of Tuscany is, typically, one of vine-covered hills, cypress woods, fields of sunflowers and remote hilltop villages. Chianti, the best-known Italian wine, is made in the area north of Siena, and several wine cellars are open to the public.
