It’s clear from all the Italy holiday enquiries coming in to the Bookings For You office at the moment, that people are incredibly keen to return to Italy for their 2022 holiday. And we can’t blame them. After all, Italy has so much to offer visitors.

Not to mention the mouth-wateringly delicious food and laid back lifestyle. And who can fail to be impressed by the stunning art and architecture or fascinating culture that can be found all around you whenever you holiday in Italy?

So, where are the best places to visit in Italy on your Italy holiday 2022? Check out our bucket list of ideas!

  1. Italian Lakes

Think of the Italian Lakes and you’ll be dreaming of beautiful vistas and serene landscapes with the dramatic mountains forming a backdrop to the crystal clear lake waters below. Holiday in the Italian Lakes and you can opt to explore the glamorous villas on Lake Como, discover the immaculately kept gardens and palaces of the Borromean Islands on Lake Maggiore, immerse yourself in the entertainment on offer at Gardaland on Lake Garda or just relax in the slower, more sedate pace of lesser known Lake Orta.

2. Tuscany

Home to rolling hills, idyllic rural landscapes and some of the world’s most iconic and unforgettable cities, Tuscany has been welcoming holidaymakers for centuries. From sipping on wine in the Chianti vineyards to climbing the Leaning Tower in Pisa to admiring the artwork in the Uffizi, Tuscany offers so much to see and do during your holiday in Italy.

3. Florence

For those looking to enjoy a city break holiday in Italy in 2022, you can’t go wrong with spending 48 hours in Florence. Florence is a truly magical place and our favourite city in Italy. The capital of Renaissance art and architecture, you’ll discover some of the world’s most famous artworks in Florence’s galleries – the Uffizi, Galleria dell’ Accademia and the Palazzo Pitti. Even wandering casually around the streets of Florence, you’ll come across the most beautiful architecture at every turn from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore to the Ponte Vecchio. Don’t miss the opportunity to also meander around Florence’s many beautiful gardens whilst you’re there.

4. Sicily

A fascinating island with a rich and diverse history, Sicily is a land of contrasts. Sicily is a true melting point of cultures and a place where East meets West and where Africa has met Europe. This is easily apparent in both the architecture and the food. Sicily’s landscape is just as diverse as its culture though. Inland, it’s hilly and mountainous, dominated by Mount Etna. And yet, head to the coast and you have some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, with fine white sand framed by rocky cliffs and green fields.

5. Le Marche

A chance to discover a more hidden side of Italy, Le Marche boasts a rural landscape to rival that of neighbouring Umbria or Emilia Romagna, a cultural heritage to rival that of Tuscany and beaches that would give any other stretch of coastline in Italy a run for its money. And yet, it remains little known amongst holidaymakers heading for a holiday in Italy. So if you like to be the first to uncover a hidden gem, it’s worth making sure that Le Marche is on your radar in 2022!

6. Umbria

One of our favourite regions in Italy, Umbria is also home to some of our favourite towns – Spello, Montefalco and Assisi. Umbria may not have the big hitting cities that its more famous neighbour Tuscany can boast of, but its hilltop towns have an irresistible charm and beauty. Its rural landscape is absolutely stunning, especially in the Spring when the wildflowers are in bloom.

7. Puglia

Right down in the heel of Italy’s boot, Puglia is the perfect place for a holiday in Italy if you’re looking for beautiful beaches, fantastic food and charming towns and villages to explore. Opt to stay in the beautiful Valle d’Itria where you’ll find the iconic trulli and explore some of our favourite towns such as Ostuni, Locorotondo, Cisternino and Alberobello.

8. Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is a great Italian holiday option if you’re after a bit of glitz and glamour. Stretching 50 km along the coast, don’t miss the opportunity to take a drive along the winding coastal road stopping en route at picturesque towns such as Ravello, Positano, Amalfi and Praiano. Spend time sunbathing at one of the pebbled beaches or sandy coves cut into the sheer cliffs before whizzing across the Bay of Naples to Capri to mingle with the rich and famous.
