Northern Italy
From Alpine peaks to glacial lakes, coastal villages and Renaissance towns, northern Italy boasts natural wonders and artistic treasures. The area has been luring artists, celebrities and Mitteleuropeans since the days of the Grand Tour, and it’s easy to see what draws them: art and architecture, an embarrassment of culinary riches, cult wines and a slew of sophisticated cities.
Our trips reveal the area in all its diversity – snaking mountain passes traverse the Dolomites and western Alps, coastal roads meander down the Italian Riviera, autostradas lead to historic cities such as Venice, Milan and Turin. Stunning scenery awaits around every turn as you wend your way to historic wineries, royal palaces and lakeside gardens.
