As you prepare for your summer getaway with Italy Culinary Vacations, we’ve compiled a list of essential packing tips to ensure you make the most of your journey. From lightweight fabrics to sun protection essentials, let’s get you ready for a summer adventure you’ll never forget.

  • Light and Breathable Fabrics: Opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics like cotton or linen to stay cool in the summer heat.
  • Sun Protection: Pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and a wide-brimmed hat to protect yourself from the sun’s rays during outdoor activities.
  • Bug Spray: If you’re prone to mosquito bites, consider bringing bug spray as this is their feast season. Or pick some up at a local farmacia upon your arrival (Chef Stefano can help you translate!)
  • Swimsuit: Don’t forget to pack a swimsuit for relaxing by the pool or enjoying Italy’s beautiful beaches.
  • Hiking/Active Attire: If you plan to explore Mt. Fumaiolo or engage in outdoor adventures, bring appropriate attire such as hiking shoes and cool activewear.
  • Reusable Water Bottle: Stay hydrated throughout the day by carrying a reusable water bottle to refill at water fountains or cafes.
