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.
