Spend a wonderful seaside vacation in southern Italy in the charming coastal town of Metaponto in Basilicata!

Situated on a smooth plain beside the sea, Metaponto is home to splendid white sandy beaches and a fantastic range of amenities and attractions.

There’s something here to suit every taste whether it’s visiting some cultural attractions such as the ruins of Greek amphitheatres and temple columns or walking around the beautiful town of Metaponto itself, admiring the quaint little shops, churches and eateries here.

A must see attraction when you’re holidaying in Campania is the stunning Aragonese Castle on Ischia Island off the coast of Naples!

Ischia Island, which was formed from a volcanic eruption, was chosen as the site upon which a spectacular castle would be built by the Parthenopeans, a civilisation of Naples.

Choose from a range of vacation villas in Campania, some of which have stunning views of the coastline!

Situated on the shores of the scenic Lake Garda in Northern Italy is the pretty little town of Malcesine. The cobbled streets here are filled with tourists during the warmer months pottering around the shops, visiting the local cultural attractions and sunbathing on the lake’s shores.

Choose from a lovely selection of holiday villas in Azzenza only a few kilometres from Malcesine where you can spend a few days exploring the picturesque Lake Garda.

Framed by the Monte Baldo behind it and Lake Garda in front, Malcesine is a beautiful place to visit and is home to a castle also.

Castello Scaligero was a military fortress until the 19th century when it was converted into a collection of museum and art exhibition spaces which are open every day. There’s a fantastic natural history museum here with tours available in several languages.

Plan your next Italian vacation to be in Milan in Lombardy between 1st May and 31st October 2015 as this is where the next Universal Exhibition or Expo will be hosted!
