Would you like to learn about a modern society that has never forgotten its past, explore landscapes that look like something from a Nativity scene, probe the vestiges of the past in museums, savour the fruits of the earth in an atmosphere redolent of wine and olives, and come across the stages of theatre and music and poetry in towns marked by human ingenuity that move to the beat of jazz, juxtaposed with ancient airs sung by medieval choirs?

Then come and discover Italy’s big little heart: a place known for its natural lifestyle and leisurely pace.
