HI Italy Youth Hostels
Immerse yourself in the art glories of the Renaissance; explore Roman ruins, Etruscan tombs and Baroque basilicas; ski in the Dolomites; relax in the sun on sandy beaches; hike through wine country; live la dolce vita. Italy presents such riches it is almost bewildering to know where to start. Milan offers fashion, opera and, in its cathedral, Leonardo da Vinci's famous Last Supper; Florence is a feast of architecture and paintings; Rome and the Vatican boast some of the world's greatest treasures; set in a stunning bay, Naples throbs with life and gives easy access to the extensive remains of Pompei, the Roman town buried in a volcanic eruption in 79AD; the rugged island of Sardinia features the magnificent Costa Verde coast; and Sicily provides an enormous range of sights from Greek temples to Norman churches, as well as some of the best beach life in Europe.
