Through Italy by motorhome
Italy has a rich history, including the creation of the Roman Empire and in the 15th century the influential Medici. This is reflected in the cities during a motorhome journey through the country: ancient Rome, the canals of Venice, the beautiful architecture in Florence, and then we haven't even mentioned everything! But also nature is one of Italy's main attractions and should not be missed on a campervan tour of the country. Take for example the immense blue Lake Garda, the peaks of the Dolomites or the spectacular Amalfi Coast, but even then not all the beautiful spots have been mentioned yet. Both the Italian cities and the countryside are perfect to explore by campervan, and you will find many campervan parks along the way.

Around the lakes, you'll find a huge number of campervan pitches and campsites. From these campervan sites, you are the first to lay down your towel on the beach or take a refreshing dive in the water in the morning.

Therefore, don't forget to buy some goodies at local shops to enjoy in the evening at the campervan at one of the many campervan pitches!
