Amalfi Coast
The spectacular Amalfi Coast is considered Italy’s most scenic stretch of coastline.
Italy
It’s almost impossible not to be captivated by the romance of this land. Step away from the buzz of Rome or Milan and retreat to Tuscany – where fine wine, delicately-crafted dishes and sunset views are in abundance.
Is it the rolling Tuscan hills, the crenellated hilltop villages, the honey-coloured architecture of Rome, the lakes of Lombardy or the Duomo of Florence that make us fall so in love with Italy?
Or is the list so long that not one distinctive aspect to Italy stands out above the rest? Perhaps our love of Italy stems from an amalgamation of it all.
Florence
Home to masterpieces of art and architecture, Brunelleschi, Bernini and Michaelangelo all left a lasting impression.
Milan and The Lakes
Combine the natural beauty and dramatic landscapes of the Italian Lakes with the chic sophistication of Milan.
Puglia
Its wonderful coastline and unique charm are both little-known gems of this country.
Rome
Spectacularly poised between the ancient world and the new.
Sicily
Golden sandy beaches, rocky headlands, baroque architecture, a rich history and Mount Etna.
Tuscany
Beautiful landscapes, exquisite food and wine, artistic legacy and World Heritage Sites.
Umbria
A beautiful region full of hill towns, cliffside castles and stunning mountain scenery.
Venice
Meander through a unique waterway and colourful architecture in this icon.
Why choose Italy
Italy has so much to offer. Open roads made for adventure, delicious food in the simplest of restaurants, leaning towers and exquisite architecture, buzzing cities and beautiful hotels from the most stylish and chic to traditional palazzos full of family treasures. Vibrant colours, fabulous art collections and little villages where you can sit for hours with an espresso, soaking up the atmosphere. Lakes for sailing, mountains for walking or skiing, a few beaches and lots of olives – and then, of course, there is the ice cream.
Why travel to Italy with Steppes
For us, Italy is all about connection. Connecting you with local people through unique and authentic experiences, whether it be dinner with a Roman family, fishing with the trabochhi fishermen, farming olives or grapes with local producers or staying in beautifully restored ancient houses.
Our focus is on making a positive impact as you travel around Italy, giving you the opportunity to see and experience the best of the country while supporting its gastronomy, craftsmanship, heritage and environment.
Apennine Mountains
Consider including a wildlife and wilderness experience into your holiday to Italy. Connect with nature and at the same time contribute to projects that protect and restore European wilderness.
A short drive from Rome is Abruzzo National Park, where you can join expert nature guides, set camera traps, follow bear and wolf tracks and learn about conservation efforts. This is an immersive wilderness experience with exceptional walking, wildlife and wide-open spaces.

My travels were first inspired by my love of the UK, which I take as much pleasure in exploring as countries far and wide. For me, travel is all about the adventure, the people I meet and the food I sample along the way.
