Luxury Italy Family Trips made for you

Inspired private family trips to Italy

Enjoy boat trips, ice cream and ancient ruins ripe for exploring

On family trips to Italy you’ll be sure to find something to captivate everyone. This ancient land of historical cities and beautiful coastlines, rolling hills and staggering ruins, invites endless exploration. Whatever your family’s interests, our travel designers will help create the perfect trip with activities and experiences that cater to all age ranges.

Visiting Italy’s cities is like taking an interactive history class, with expert guides who make the past come alive. Kids will love imagining the epic scenes that once took place in Rome’s Colosseum, going back in time to step into the shoes, quite literally, of heroic fighters at gladiator school. There are also the historic ruins of Pompeii and  ancient temples on the island of Sicily to explore. If you’re looking for beach-side fun in the sun, then Sardinia has a variety of family-friendly hotels and resorts ready to welcome you.

There’s no chance of anyone going hungry on one of our Italy tours for families. As well as recommending the best restaurants for relaxed family meals, we can arrange cooking classes where everyone gets busy kneading pizza dough, cutting pasta shapes or whipping up delicious tiramisu. No trip is complete without sampling world-famous gelato and you’ll get to taste every flavour under the sun on specialist tours.

Spending quality time together is so important on a family holiday and your itinerary can be tailored to include the perfect balance of activities, excursions and free time. On one of Jacada’s luxury family trips to Italy you’ll have your pick of fantastic places to stay from private villas to rambling farmhouses, central city hotels and sumptuous coastal resorts.

When to visit

In the warm summer months, the Amalfi Coast takes pride of place with its dramatic cliffsides and azure waters. Summer is also the perfect time to take a trip to Lake Como, Verona, Puglia or the Dolomites, where there are far fewer crowds. If you want to visit major cities such as Rome, Florence and Venice then the best time to go to Italy is during the cooler months of April, May, September or October.
