A Guide to Adventure Travel Abroad in Italy

Locations

Because of its unusual shape jutting into the Mediterranean Sea from the south of Europe, Italy is often referred to by locals as lo Stivale, which means ‘the Boot’ in Italian. The third most populous country in the European Union, Italy is home to several famous cities, an imposing amount of ancient and medieval architecture, and an immense diversity of landscapes which beg to be explored.

Adventure travel programs in Italy will often take you to multiple destinations throughout the countryside, which means that you will get to sample a little bit of everything during the duration of your travels. To begin with, some of the most popular cities visited during adventure travel in Italy include Rome, Florence, and Venice. Each of these destinations boasts beautiful architecture and fascinating histories, both of which are largely distinct from one another no less.

Beyond the cities, you might also move on to explore regions such as Sicily, Siena, or Sorrento while you adventure travel in Italy. Sicily is an autonomous province and the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, sitting just off the southern tip of the Italian mainland. Siena is a province in the central region of Tuscany, and Sorrento spans a peninsula on the country’s southwest coast overlooking Naples. These are only a few of the many places you can visit by embarking on an adventure travel program in Italy!

Greece and Italy Adventure

November 20, 2025by: Dylan Plant - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Greece and Italy
10

Going on Travel for Teens' Greece and Italy adventure was one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. I got to travel to incredible places like Capri, Amalfi Coast, Rome, Athens, and Lefkada. As someone who hadn't ever been out of the country by myself, Travel for Teens allowed me to feel safe and confident about being in a country with people I had never met before. It was super easy to make friends, to feel safe with my councillors, and to have fun. I always look back on that trip as transformative (for myself), and the highlight of my summer. I think travel for teens did a great job with the itinerary, and also picking councillors that were very good connecting with the students. Overall, I had a great time being apart of Travel for Teens' program.
