Besides having plenty of opportunities to relax and soak up the Mediterranean sun by the seaside, you’ll also get to test your fishing skills with the locals on a traditional boat ride. This trip promises a blend of culture, nature, history and cuisine – truly embodying the essence of Italy!

Is this trip right for you- Transportation on the trip includes local trains, private vehicles and public buses. The trains are comfortable (and have toilets), but they can be busy, especially in peak summer. You’ll need to carry your own luggage so ensure it meets our weight and size recommendations in the ‘Packing’ section of the Essential Trip Information.
- Summer temperatures can exceed 40°c, so use sun protection, wear layers and stay hydrated. Many European hotels lack air-conditioning and local trains’ cooling systems can fail. Beaches are crowded during peak season so consider the time of year you travel.
- European hotel rooms may seem small by American or Australian standards, and they often have two single beds instead of doubles.
- If you’re interested in a longer trip, consider starting in Rome with our ’Rome to Sicily’ trip (code ZMSFC).
