A visit to Almyrida Crete sadly marked the end of my summer travels for the year. This said, spending a week relaxing by a beautiful pool and gorging on amazing Greek food isn't the worst way to wave goodbye to the sunshine.
Despite travelling to Italy several times before with my family, I've never visited the countries bucket-list destinations. This summer I decided to change this fact and planned a trip to Italy stopping in Venice, Florence, Cinque Terre and Rome. Thus here's my ultimate 2 week Italy Itinerary.
Out of all the places there are to visit in Italy, Rome has always fascinated me the most. Mainly because I find it hard to believe that structures like the Colosseum are still standing after 2,000 years. In this way, I couldn't wait to end my trip to Italy by spending a week in Rome! Below you'll find all you need to know about my Rome itinerary (and why its the best) ;).
After Spending 2 days in Venice, my Italian adventure continued with a trip to Florence. Previously home to the famous Medici family, this Tuscan city is full of beautiful historic sites. Sadly I only spent one day in the city. However, I found that this was enough time to do most of the top things to do in Florence. Thus, here's what to do in Florence in a day.
The Italian Riviera is home to the most breathtaking coastlines. The views are arguably at their best in the region of Cinque Terre. Here five beautiful fishing villages sit isolated from the rest of the world on the edge of the cliffs. Hiking in Cinque Terre, therefore, involves uninterrupted views of the coast and the opportunity to explore tiny towns that have remained unchanged for centuries.
