Of all the countries in the world, Italy is perhaps the most magical of all. This narrow boot of crinkled land, extending gracefully into the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, has seen the birth of empires, cradled the growth of civilisations and shaped the destinies of continents.
Luxury holidays in Italy with Abercrombie & Kent offer uniquely privileged glimpses of a real Italy, driven by people, landscapes and cuisine.
Italy holidays can span the majestic mountains and misty lakes of the north, through wonderful walled villages and glorious Renaissance cities of the beautiful rolling heartlands, to the glorious city of Rome and on to the wonderful beaches and islands of the south. Italy luxury holidays are awash with truly cosmopolitan destinations.
Holidays in Italy are an opportunity to explore a country redolent with history - from the wonderful canals of Venice to the city-states that dominated Tuscany and Umbria and the Greek and Roman ruins of the south. Its central position in the history of art lives on through daily life, with frescoes and furniture testifying to a love of beauty and dedication to quality, while the sounds of great composers linger on in concert-halls and joyous songs on village streets. Since the days of the Grand Tour, holidays to Italy have been a magnet for discerning travellers, warm and vibrant, with beautiful countryside, wonderful food, grand operas and a vivid sense of style and fashion.
To help find your own slice of luxury in Italy, we have searched out the finest hotels that epitomise the little comforts that make travel great. Our portfolio stretches from the Lakes region in the north to the sunny glamorous islands of Sardinia and Sicily in the south. During your Italy holiday, stay in one of its most famous cities such as Florence or Milan or escape to the countryside and stay in the heart of Tuscany.
