Romantic walks while admiring the landscape (Lovere, BG) — For relaxing and enjoying beautiful scenery hand in hand, Lake Iseo (or Sebino) is one of the most fascinating stretches of water in Italy for its scenery. Lovere is located here. One of the most beautiful villages in Italy and - in the words of English writer Lady Wortley Montagu - "the most romantic place I have ever seen."

3. Sleeping in an igloo (Livigno, SO) — If you are an incurable romantic, we recommend giving a unique experience to the person who shares every moment of the day with you. A romantic night in a snow suite at 1800 m. It is located in Livigno. You sleep wrapped in a warm thermal sleeping bag and upon awakening pamper the couple in the SPA. Have we intrigued you?
