Family holidays to Italy

Home of the Roman Empire, the Renaissance and the world-conquering pizza (not to mention pasta and gelato), and with almost 5,000 miles of sublime coastline, Italy knocks it right out of the park when it comes to family holidays.

With a bucketload of bargain short-haul flights leaving the UK almost daily, all year round, you and your brood can jet off to top, family-friendly destinations like Tuscany, Lake Garda and Sicily in no time at all.

Top family-friendly destinations in Italy

Tuscany

Picture-perfect backdrops, shedloads of history and Italian food at its Italian best, family holidays to Tuscany will have you exclaiming “mamma mia, che buono” around the clock! Head to Pisa to see and climb the iconic leaning tower, Florence to take in thousands of years of art and Val d’Orcia for lush rolling greenery.

Lake Garda

Cable cars, castles, boats, bikes, theme parks and fresh water swimming, family holidays to Lake Garda have got the lot. When you’re not hanging out by the shore, hit the thermal park for natural hydrotherapy or take the kids to float along lazy rivers and whizz down colourful slides at Gardaland LEGOLAND Waterpark.

Sicily

Sicily doesn’t do dull. From the golden sands and warm water of Syracuse and the ancient ruins of the Valley of the Temples to the lofty awesomeness of Mount Etna, the island’s many attractions easily fill up action-packed days.
