Family holidays Italy

A country of mountains, sparkling coastlines, ancient history and fine cuisine, a family holiday to Italy can be a great experience no matter which part you choose to visit. If you're looking for a family holiday, Italy will not disappoint with miles of golden sand beaches and family-friendly resorts.

Rome, for instance, has quite the selection of family oriented activities and resorts. Indeed the city has gone to some considerable lengths over recent years to provide interesting attractions for children. Sightseeing may bore your child, but don’t worry, there are plenty of activities and places to visit that will keep them amused.

The zoo at Bioparco at Villa Borghese, for one, is a real child-pleaser. Indoor activities include Time Elevator, an amazing experience where flight-simulator seats and headphones give little ones (and their parents) a fun virtual tour of 3,000 years of Roman history.

A quick look around and you will find something for the whole family; bowling, ice-skating, indoor rock climbing and roller-skating are particularly popular family pastimes in Italy. As far as food goes, Italy offers meals that kids simply adore, such as gelato (ice cream), pizza and spaghetti, and most restaurants will also serve kid’s portions on request.
