Few places have the power to stir hearts and minds like the awe-inspiring cities and rolling landscapes of Tuscany. Yet the lesser-known regions of Umbria and Puglia are increasingly catching the eye of discerning travellers in search of la dolce vita (the sweet life) and offer equally atmospheric alternatives for a memorable honeymoon.
Couples have an open invitation to lose themselves in medieval hilltop villages and towns, only to find the finest art and architecture around every corner; spend hours over a romantic lunch or dinner accompanied by the best local wines or follow ancient walking trails through some of the loveliest landscapes ever painted – and at the end of if all, there’ll be a luxury villa, hotel or apartment to welcome you home.
A honeymoon in Italy is a celebration from start to finish – and an idyllic destination to appreciate your own amore to the full.
