The Ideal Road Trip Route through Italy: Luxury and Must-Sees.

Begin your journey in the north of Italy, where the enchanting Lake Como awaits.

Embark on the road trip of your dreams through the enchanting landscapes of Italy, beginning in the north with a recommended 2 nights and 3 days at the picturesque Lake Como. Immerse yourself in luxury at the iconic Grand Hotel Tremezzo or the charming Villa Lario, a modern retreat with an authentic touch, providing breathtaking views and serving as an ideal base for exploring Como. For a touch of fairytale charm, Villa Regina Teodolinda awaits in Laglio, the residence of none other than George Clooney.

Don’t forget to spend a day on the lake of the DIOR Café – this pop-up swimming pool on the lake is a must visit. Read everything about it here.

The breathtaking Amalfi Coast welcomes you with cliffs, luxury hotels, and picturesque villages.

Heading south past Rome, you’ll arrive at one of Italy’s most renowned regions – the Amalfi Coast. This breathtaking coastline, with its towering cliffs, colorful houses clinging to rocks, and luxurious hotels, will undoubtedly capture your heart. Allocate at least a week for this leg of the journey, as travel between destinations may take some time due to the single coastal road. Consider a night on Capri to truly experience the island’s magic, especially after the last ferry departs, and the island comes alive with genuine charm.

Take a boat tour around Capri, marveling at the iconic Faraglioni rocks in the crystal-clear waters. For comprehensive information on attractions, accommodations, insider tips, budget estimates, and route guidance, refer to our e-guide, packed with everything you need to know.

End your journey in the Portofino region, a true gem in Liguria.

Time to head north again. To bridge the distance, we spent the final segment of our vacation in the Portofino region, a true gem in Liguria. Discover the charm of Portofino and the evening allure of Rapallo, reminiscent of a mini-Barcelona with its cozy streets and countless terraces.

While Portofino itself may be small, it exudes opulence with luxury shops, restaurants, and yachts. Don’t miss the unmissable Hotel Splendido, where the Dior spa offers an exquisite experience. The restaurant boasts a phenomenal view that you may have glimpsed on Instagram. The coastal road to Portofino is dotted with charming seaside towns, tempting me for a return visit.
