Italy Honeymoon and Holiday Packages from India
What an Italy Trip from India Looks Like
A first Italy trip usually takes 8 to 10 days across Rome, Florence and Venice, linked by fast trains: Rome to Florence is about 1.5 hours and Florence to Venice about 2. Add the Amalfi Coast or Lake Como if you have more time. April to June and September to October avoid the worst of the summer heat, and Italy needs a Schengen visa.

Frequently asked questions
Is Italy good for a honeymoon?
Yes. Italy gives couples variety in one trip: Rome for history, Florence for art and food, Venice for canals and gondola rides, then the Amalfi Coast or Lake Como to slow down. Fast trains link the main cities, so you spend your days sightseeing rather than in transfers.
How many days do you need for Italy?
A first trip takes 8 to 10 days across Rome, Florence and Venice, linked by fast trains. Add three or four nights if you want the Amalfi Coast or Lake Como. On a shorter holiday, choose two cities and do them properly rather than trying to cover all three.
What is the best time to visit Italy from India?
April to June and September to October are best. Spring brings mild weather and flowers with fewer crowds; autumn has pleasant temperatures and grape harvest festivals. Peak summer is hot and crowded in Rome and Florence, though it is the season for the Amalfi Coast and Cinque Terre.
How do you travel between Rome, Florence and Venice?
By fast train. Rome, Florence and Venice are on Italy’s high-speed rail line, so city-to-city journeys are short and you arrive in the centre. Pisa is about an hour from Florence by train, and Cinque Terre is a day trip or an overnight stop by regional train.
Do Indians need a visa for Italy?
Yes. Indian passport holders need a Schengen short-stay visa for Italy. The fee is €90 for adults, €45 for children aged 6 to 12 and nil for under-6s, plus the VFS service charge. Apply at least 15 days and up to six months before travel, to the country where you spend the most nights.
