Imagine Italy
Back in the day, Italy reigned supreme in travel value, especially as a destination to see some of the most important historic sites in the Western World, eat great food, enjoy great wines, and bask in beautiful scenery. And, if you haven’t noticed lately, those value days are coming back again!
Where else can you see the Forum one day and visit Pompeii the next, all while enjoying La Dolce Vita? And we’re not talking about the movie here, but literally the sweet life,’ stripped of irony and wordplay. It doesn’t get much better than Italy, as those who’ve visited it time and again can attest.
Just imagine yourself at a cafe on a piazza, watching people and enjoying some regional delicacies. Or wandering the streets after perusing the weekly market in a small village in Tuscany or Umbria, only to find a restaurant with no signage, no menu and some of the best food you’ve had in your life. Or having breakfast with a person that’s dear to you on a patio overlooking the Mediterranean and a full day of nothing to do ahead of you. That’s Italy.
Year after year, Italy’s withstood the test of time as the most popular destination in Europe and 2009 is no different. Add on the facts of the dollar’s strength, the hoteliers’ hunger, the price drop in air fares, the Italians warmth, and you’ve got a recipe ripe with travel value.
