Our inspirational Best of the Italian Lakes section illustrates the region's highlights, from fine art to extraordinary buildings and exquisite ornamental gardens, making sure you don't miss anything. With a longer and more in-depth history and culture section than its competitors, this travel guide provides an essential introduction to the fascinating history of the Italian Lakes and the growth of tourism in the area, from the Victorians to 21st-century celebrities. There are detailed chapters on the region's geography and wildlife, and of course its renowned cuisine. The informative text, written by regional experts, is an absorbing read and accompanied by stunning photography. Lavish Photo Features offer a unique insight into the top attractions in the Italian Lakes, from ski resorts and spas to ornate villas and gardens, as well as great ideas for family days out. All major sights are cross-referenced with high-quality, full-colour maps, and the travel tips section provides a wealth of practical information on how to plan your trip, things to do in the Lakes, plus our carefully selected hotel and restaurant listings. The touring map gives you a selection of seven scenic and leisurely driving routes around the Lakes, perfect for taking to the open road and exploring independently.
Natasha Foges moved to Italy in 2003 for one year and ended up staying for four, during which time she took on an array of jobs, from paparazzo's assistant to Latin teacher, before trying her hand at travel journalism. Now an editor and travel writer based in London, she spends much of her time pining for the southern Italian sunshine, and goes back as often as she can to soak up the atmosphere and tuck into some world-class pizza.
