Italy is known for its romantic atmosphere. It’s obvious, then, why the spectacular country is such a popular place for romantic vacations and honeymoon getaways. If you’ve been thinking about planning a trip to Italy with your significant other, we’ve got ideas!

Here are 10 The Top 10 Vacation Spots for a Romantic Getaway in Italy.

1. Venice

There’s something mystical and other-worldly about Venice. Off on its own, away from all the activity and stress associated with city life, Venice takes you back to a time when things were simpler and a bit slower. The gorgeous canals add to the mystique, and a ride on a famous Venice Gondola should be on any honeymoon itinerary. Wonder and excitement lay around every twist and turn, and there’s always something new to be discovered. Although the main island could dazzle you for days, be sure also to enjoy the charms of Burano Island, the glassmaking on Murano Island, and the sprawling beaches of Lido Island.

2. Verona

The backdrop for “Romeo & Juliet,” Verona is majestically beautiful and offers a powerful sense of romance. Walk hand-in-hand on the sprawling grounds of Castel San Pierte, or the maze at Giardo Giusti. We also recommend visiting the Verona Arena for an authentic Italian opera performance.

3. Florence

Florence is the capital of Tuscany, and, in our opinion, it’s the capital of romance. The serene cobblestone streets and historic setting create the perfect backdrop for making beautiful memories with that special someone. The Villa Bardini Garden is not to be missed, and because it is Tuscany, we strongly urge you to enjoy long, luxurious lunches with locally-produced wine.

4. Rome

Known as the Eternal City, Rome is another fantastic place to add to your honeymoon itinerary. You’ll never run out of amazing things to do with your partner, from watching the sunset over the Orange Garden to taking in the Borghese Gallery to making a wish for everlasting love while visiting the world-renown Trevi Fountain.

5. Cinque Terre

The nation of Italy boasts long coastlines, and one of our favorite coastal regions is Cinque Terre. This region is made up of five quaint and charming villages, all brilliantly colored and connected to one another by well-maintained trails. There’s nothing like a romantic walk between villages with the sea salt hanging in the air. Savor the sights and sounds all day before enjoying a romantic meal for two at any of the many incredible restaurants, or enjoy wine tasting at Enoteca de Eliso.

6. Portofino

Situated on the sea, Portofino is a picturesque village that will charm you and your partner with magnificent sunrises and sunsets, sprawling beach views, and stunning architecture. Be sure to visit Brown Castle for a trip back in time and amazing panoramas of the city. Bicycle tours, hiking, and boating are also popular activities here. The key thing to remember with Portofino is that it’s all about slowing down and enjoying a relaxed pace of life. You’re here to take in the beauty with the person you love the most and create memories that will last for a lifetime.

7. Naples

Naples is an enchanting city of contradictions! Although it is vibrant and full of life and modern energy, these experiences are contrasted against ancient architecture and rich history. This combination makes it one of our favorite vacation spots for couples who want to enjoy a unique experience. By day, visit Castel Nuevo, walk the Spaccanapoli, and climb Mount Vesuvius. By night, bask in the warmth of Italian hospitality and charm as street artists sing and entertain or as you enjoy a late dinner with local wine.

8. Amalfi Coast

This region is the perfect spot for a honeymoon getaway or for rekindling the fires with your longtime partner. Situated along 50 kilometres of magnificent coastline, the hills overlooking the sea are dotted with meticulously beautiful homes, churches, and other structures. Sorento offers some of the best views of the pristine seawater, and we recommend catching a sunset here. Atrani is the most laidback area in this region, and it’s the perfect place to simply enjoy the sea on the unique black sand beach. Positano is the most iconic city along the Amalfi Coast and is the perfect backdrop for creating beautiful pictures with your sweetheart. There are numerous restaurants here, and the city has a very active nightlife, so you’ll be able to keep the fun going all night.

9. Tuscany

Tuscany is a little piece of paradise on Earth. There’s something truly magical about the lush, sprawling green landscape and the way the sunlight hits the hills throughout the day. Tuscany is world-famous for its impeccable wine tours, and you can also enjoy a food tour. One thing you absolutely must tag onto your honeymoon itinerary is a hot air balloon ride! There’s nothing like seeing Tuscany from the air. If you prefer to keep your feet on the ground, though, you’ll enjoy gardens, boutiques, and galleries all over the region.

10. Capri

The island of Capri is truly the perfect spot for lovers who are looking to escape from all the cares of everyday life and focus on the beauty of nature and each other. Words cannot begin to describe how blue and pure the sea water is here. We recommend plenty of romantic walks along the coastline, or you can enjoy a boat tour through the Faraglioni formations. Local legend states that couples who kiss while passing through these rocks will remain in love and together forever. The Gardens of Augustus and the Ville San Michele are also wonderful places to bond with your partner. Luxurious garden paths lined with greenery and florals will make you fall deeper in love than ever before.

We hope we have inspired you to create the perfect honeymoon itinerary or plans for a sweet and romantic vacation with your sweetie. You can’t go wrong when you visit any one of these deeply romantic settings in the heart of Italy. Enjoy!
