It’s no surprise that Italy is one of the top tourist destinations in the world. In addition to its gorgeous weather and delicious food, Italy boasts a wide variety of sights, attractions and activities, so no matter where you go within the country, you’ll always have plenty to do and see. Ultimately, one trip to Italy could never be enough if you want to explore all the country has to offer, but here are some of the main things you should do if you’re planning a trip to Italy soon.

Go to the opera

Italy is the birthplace of opera, so there’s no better place to visit if you’re a huge opera fan. For the best opera experience, you should visit the Roman arena in Verona. The Verona Arena was built in 30AD and is still in use today, and it’s famous for its large-scale opera performances. Make sure you book tickets for italy’s opera events well in advance so you don’t miss out!

See the Colosseum in Rome

If you’re going to Rome, then you absolutely must visit the Colosseum. This ancient amphitheatre was the site of gladiator fights during the Roman Empire, so if you love history, then this is a must-see. Again, like the opera, you should book tickets in advance as this is an extremely popular tourist attraction.

Ride in a gondola in Venice

This activity is a bit of a cliché, but it’s definitely worth doing if you’ve never been to Italy before. Gliding along Venice’s Grand Canal in a gondola is a magical experience, especially if you do it at night when all of the lights are reflecting in the water. Your gondolier can also point out the sights to you and talk to you about Venice, helping you immerse yourself in the culture.

Lake Como boat tour

Another boat tour option is to visit Lake Como and take a tour of this beautiful spot. Lake Como is famous for its stunning scenery and breathtaking views, so this is the ideal destination for those who prefer exploring nature to going sightseeing in a city. 

Visit Mount Etna

For nature lovers, Mount Etna is another must-see destination. Mount Etna is an active volcano located on the east coast of Sicily, and it’s in an almost constant state of activity. If you’d like to get a closer look at Mount Etna, you can hike there or ride in a cable car. 

Ski in the Dolomites

On the other side of Italy, you’ll find the Dolomites. These mountains in northeastern Italy are a popular skiing destination, so if you’re an avid skier or you’d love to try out the sport for the first time, then you should add skiing in the Dolomites to your travel itinerary. The Dolomiti Superski region boasts 15 ski resorts and 1,200 km of high-quality ski slopes.

You could never explore all that Italy has to offer in one trip, which is why it remains one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. If you’re overwhelmed by all the activities you could try, then add these ideas to your list to get inspiration for your next trip.
