From the piazzas of Florence to the snow-dusted rocks of the Dolomites, the salt pans of Sicily to the pizza-spinning trattorias of Naples, Italy ranges across some of Europe's most enthralling places and towns. You can't go wrong with a jaunt to the capital. Rome is where most cheap flights to Italy from Australia will land, and it's brimming with masterworks by da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Caravaggio, along with the domes of the Vatican. Beyond that are the rolling vineyards of Tuscany, Umbria's fortified villages, Ligurian beaches lined by pastel-painted mansions, and the honeymoon favorite of the Amalfi Coast. It's awesome stuff.
