2 - Discover Italy

The marvel of nature

Italy radiates with the diversity of its landscapes: lakes, coves, countryside blanketed with pine trees... Set out on an adventure to discover all it has to offer! In Sicily, go for a bike ride on the slopes of Mount Etna, the most active volcano in Europe. It’s a great way to experience the change from verdant forests to deserts of lava.
The discoveries keep coming as you explore Sicily’s hinterland, on the slopes of the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. On this rocky promontory stands a collection of Doric temples and ancient ruins which have witness a thousand years of history, today classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
For an explosive sight, head for the Aeolian Islands and climb Stromboli, an active volcano off the coast of Sicily and Calabria. Your all-inclusive stay in Italy is a chance to admire the fascinating sight of its frequent eruptions. After this spectacle, head to Forgia Vecchia beach in a peaceful bay at the foot of the volcano's eastern slopes.

Taormina

The South – history and legends

Sicily is a land rich in historical remains. During your all-inclusive holiday in Italy, take time to explore the tranquil island of Ortygia, the historic centre of Syracuse. Enjoy its many ancient ruins, such as the temple of Apollo.
Heading up the coast during your Club Med Trinacria tour, you’ll fall under the spell of Taormina, a little village perched 200 metres up a cliff. Its ancient theatre, built in the 3rd century BC, has one of the most stunning panoramic views that the town has to offer.
Then add a cultural dimension to your all-inclusive holiday in Italy. Just a hundred or so metres from your Club Med Cefalù resort, discover the historical town centre and the Porta Pescara, which leads to the beach and old port.

Piedmont vineyards

Awaken your senses

Once you’ve fed the spirit, it’s the stomach’s turn, a highlight of any all-inclusive stay in Italy. Start your tasting tour with a 2-hour drive from your Club Med Pragelato Vialattea resort with the Club Med Lombardy and Veneto tour, in the heart of the five vineyards in Piedmont (Langhe-Roero and Monferrato) classed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A few kilometres away, in this mountainous setting, you can also enjoy the Bogogno Golf Course and sip on a glass of spritz as you admire the mountains at the end of a round !
Leave the vines behind to come to the table and try the best dishes Sicily has to offer from Catania to Palermo. Its typically Mediterranean cuisine, with influences from Spain, Greece and the Arab world, is a way to discover the finest local produce: aubergine cannot be beaten when in caponata with tomatoes, capers and olives. Nor can you visit without trying arancini or cannoli siciliani.

Etna

Our tips: 1. climb the Etna

The most imposing symbol of Italy: Mount Etna.
As the Sicilian brother of Vesuvius, it’s the largest active volcano in Europe and, as such, a natural site that those looking for something a little out-of-the-ordinary really shouldn’t miss. So put on your hiking boots and head off for an ascent of more than 2 hours to admire the summit craters. An unforgettable demonstration of the power of nature!

Stromboli

Our tips: 2. an excursion to the Stromboli

Does this volcanic island off Sicily and far from civilisation need any introduction?
Made famous by Jules Verne in particular, the site offers an unforgettable excursion during your all-inclusive holiday in Italy. Watching the volcano exploding as you climb the crater is truly memorable. Seeing its fiery spray is sure to send a shiver down your spine, there you are face to face with the spectacular force of nature.
