From the dreamy canals of Venice to the golden hills of Tuscany, Italy is a timeless classic, a living masterpiece that never stops inspiring. Though its postcard-perfect views have been captured a thousand times, travel with Pinoy Tourism and you’ll see Italy in a new light, rich with depth, warmth, and the kind of moments you’ll carry forever.
On a slow day, you might find yourself lounging under striped umbrellas along the glamorous Isle of Capri. On an extravagant one, you could be shopping in Milan’s haute couture boutiques before sitting down to veal cutlet and fine wine. In Rome, alfresco lunches follow mornings spent tracing history through the Vatican, the Trevi Fountain, and the Colosseum. There’s no single way to define Italy because every traveler finds their own version of it. Come hungry for culture, color, and connection. You’ll leave with your heart full… and probably your luggage, too.

                                                  Our top 5 things to do in Italy

                                                  See Michelangelo’s Frescoed Ceiling in the Sistine Chapel

                                                  Step inside the Vatican City and look up — the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel is nothing short of divine. Michelangelo’s breathtaking frescoes, painted over four years of genius and exhaustion, tell stories that shaped the world. It’s not just art — it’s a spiritual awakening.

                                                  Visit the Glamorous Isle of Capri

                                                  Capri has long been Italy’s answer to paradise. Famous for its Blue Grotto, dramatic cliffs, and elegant charm, this island in the Gulf of Naples is pure dolce vita. Spend a day by the sea, gelato in hand, watching sailboats drift across turquoise waters.

                                                  Cruise Your Way Through Venice

                                                  Glide through Venice’s maze of canals and see why this floating city has bewitched travelers for centuries. Pass under romantic bridges, gaze at Gothic palaces, and listen to the quiet lapping of water against ancient stone — it’s pure magic.

                                                  Journey to the Well-Preserved Ruins of Pompeii

                                                  Frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, Pompeii is a haunting yet fascinating window into the past. Walk through its cobbled streets and ancient homes, imagining life as it was nearly two thousand years ago.

                                                  Milan is where style meets sophistication. Step into the home of Armani, Gucci, Prada, and Versace — or simply people-watch at a café while savoring ossobuco or veal Milanese. It’s fashion, food, and flair in perfect harmony.

                                                  The beating heart of Renaissance art, the Uffizi Gallery houses masterpieces by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo. The building itself is a masterpiece, with views over the Arno River and a history that’s as captivating as its collection.

                                                  Rome

                                                  Vatican Museums

                                                  Once home to the Doge, Venice’s leader, this Gothic gem is an architectural triumph. Wander its opulent halls, golden staircases, and grand chambers that tell the story of a city built on elegance and ambition.

                                                  Best food in Italy

                                                  Carbonara

                                                  Born in Rome, perfected by grandmothers. Carbonara’s simple ingredients — eggs, Pecorino Romano, guanciale, and black pepper — come together to create comfort in its purest form. Every forkful is a love letter to Italian tradition.

                                                  Pollo alla Cacciatora

                                                  Translating to “hunter’s chicken,” this rustic stew blends tomatoes, herbs, and slow-simmered tenderness. It’s Italy in a bowl — rich, hearty, and made to be shared.

                                                  What to pack for a tour in Italy

                                                  What to Pack

                                                  A Classic Linen Outfit

                                                  Italy has a style all its own understated yet elegant. A few light linen ensembles will have you blending right in with the locals.

                                                  Headphones

                                                  Whether you’re cruising the Amalfi Coast or crossing Tuscany’s vineyards, a good playlist (or podcast) makes long drives part of the adventure.

                                                  Under the Tuscan Sun by Frances Mayes

                                                  Few books capture Italy’s soul like this one. It’s the perfect travel companion as you sip wine under olive trees or wander cobblestone lanes.

                                                  A Small Blanket

                                                  Tuscany and picnics are a match made in heaven. Bring a lightweight blanket for spontaneous feasts of cheese, prosciutto, and Chianti.

                                                  A Blank Journal

                                                  Italy will move you, guaranteed. Keep a journal handy for jotting down thoughts, sketches, or your favorite trattoria discoveries.

                                                  Frequently Asked & Question

                                                  Whether you need a visa depends on your nationality and travel plans. Italy is part of the Schengen Area, which allows visa-free travel for citizens of around 60 countries — including the Philippines, Australia, the United States, Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom — for short stays up to 90 days. If you’re unsure, you can confirm your visa requirements on the official Schengen Visa website before booking your trip.

                                                  Italy is at its most charming in spring (March–May) and early autumn (September–October). The weather is mild, the crowds are lighter, and the country is alive with cultural events. Catch the Venice Historical Regatta in September, or experience the colorful Flower Festival of Noto in Sicily around April–May. These seasons offer the perfect mix of sunshine, celebration, and serenity.

                                                  Italy’s climate changes dramatically from north to south — and from mountain to coast.
                                                  • In the Italian Alps, winter can plunge below -5°C (23°F).
                                                  • In southern regions, summer highs can soar above 35°C (95°F).
                                                  For most travelers, the sweet spot is spring or autumn, when cities like Rome and Florence hover between 18°C–22°C (64°F–72°F), giving you perfect sightseeing weather without the summer rush.

                                                  Italy uses the Euro (€). Most shops, hotels, and restaurants accept major credit cards, but it’s always handy to keep some cash for small purchases, local markets, or rural areas.

                                                  Tipping in Italy is appreciated, but not obligatory. Many restaurants include a service charge (coperto) of around 10–12% in the bill. If it’s not already added, rounding up your bill or leaving a few euros in cash is always a nice gesture for good service.

                                                  ATMs — or “bancomat” as they’re called locally — are easy to find throughout Italy. In big cities, they’re available on most main streets, while smaller towns usually have one in the central piazza or near local banks. Just double-check international withdrawal fees with your bank before traveling.

                                                  Absolutely. Italy’s tap water is among the cleanest and safest in the world, and in many towns you’ll even find public fountains dispensing fresh, drinkable water. Carry a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and help reduce plastic waste.

                                                  Travel insurance isn’t mandatory, but it’s highly recommended. Make sure your plan covers:
                                                  • Trip interruption or cancellation
                                                  • Medical expenses and emergency evacuation
                                                  • Lost luggage or personal items
                                                  Protecting your trip gives you peace of mind — especially when traveling abroad.

                                                  Expect warm, sunny weather averaging 23°C–28°C (73°F–82°F). Pack:
                                                  • Lightweight clothing — dresses, shorts, shirts
                                                  • Comfortable sandals or sneakers
                                                  • Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat
                                                  • A small day bag and reusable water bottle
                                                  • A universal power adapter for your devices
                                                  Pro tip: Italians love effortless style — keep it casual but chic.

                                                  Winter temperatures range from -5°C to 15°C (23°F–59°F), depending on where you are. Pack:
                                                  • A warm coat and cozy sweaters
                                                  • Scarves, hats, and gloves
                                                  • Waterproof boots or shoes
                                                  • A rain jacket or umbrella (especially for northern cities)
                                                  • Thermal layers for chillier days
                                                  Even in winter, Italy’s charm never fades — just dress warmly and enjoy the festive season.

                                                  These seasons bring mild temperatures and the occasional cool breeze. Layering is key. Bring:
                                                  • Light jumpers and long-sleeved shirts
                                                  • A medium-weight jacket or coat
                                                  • Jeans or light trousers
                                                  • Comfortable walking shoes
                                                  You’ll be ready for sunny piazzas by day and cozy trattorias by night.
