Vineyard hills, Renaissance cities, pine-fringed beaches and a plate of pici at every turn: Tuscany is the rare destination where the whole family gets its dream holiday.

Lakeside beaches, mountain trails, Roman ruins and Italy's biggest theme park: Lake Garda packs three shores of variety into one sparkling lake, made for a camping holiday with family or partner.

Heel, boot and a whole lot of coastline: Apulia serves Adriatic and Ionian beaches, white villages and olive groves in one sun-soaked package. Pitch up by the sea, pour a glass of local wine and let the Italian south do the rest.

Veneto serves up Venice, Lake Garda and the Dolomites in one holiday. Pitch up by the Adriatic or on the lakeshore, where sandy beaches and big waterparks keep the whole family smiling, and the lagoon city is never far away.

Lazio gives you Rome's Colosseum, Etruscan tombs, a crater lake and sandy Tyrrhenian beaches in one holiday. Pitch up near the Eternal City and swap sightseeing for lagoon pools and pine-shaded evenings.


Greek temples, an active volcano and more than 1,000 km of coastline: Sicily packs a whole continent into one island. Pitch up by the sea and add Etna, Cefalù and ancient Agrigento to your family holiday.

Best time to visit Italy
May is perfect for sightseeing, with highs of 22°C in Venice, 23°C in Verona and Bologna, and 24°C in Florence, Rome and Lecce. From June to August the north reaches about 30°C, while the south turns up the heat even more, with Apulia regularly hitting 38°C in August: ideal for long pool days. The liveliest weeks run from 1 to 20 August, with the peak around Ferragosto on 15 August, so book early. September stays at about 25°C and is a relaxed month for the beach. For a quieter Ferragosto, head for the Maremma in Tuscany or Salento in Apulia.
Practical tips
- Driving: Most families from the Netherlands travel via Germany, Innsbruck and the Brenner Pass, then on past Bolzano and Trento towards Lake Garda.
- Tolls and vignettes: Austria needs a vignette (€12.80 for 10 days, no extra one for a caravan), the Brenner motorway adds €12.50 per trip and Italy charges tolls per section. Via Switzerland you need a CHF 40 vignette.
- Flights: Schiphol flies direct to Rome Fiumicino (about 2h20), Venice Marco Polo (about 1h56) and Milan Linate (about 1h39). Ryanair flies from Eindhoven to Pisa, Bologna and Brindisi, and Transavia flies Amsterdam to Olbia for Sardinia.
- Old town centres: Florence, Pisa, Lucca, Siena, Verona and Rome have limited traffic zones with automatic fines from €80. Leave the car at the campsite and go by bus or train.
- Ferragosto: Around 15 August many small shops and family-run restaurants close for the holiday, while tourist-area restaurants, beaches and major museums stay open.
- Booking: Mid-August is the busiest time, so reserve early for the week you want.
- Food to try: Neapolitan pizza, pasta, focaccia, carbonara, pesto and gelato everywhere, plus Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino in Tuscany.
Our advice starts with one question: who is coming along? For families with young children we love Veneto and Emilia-Romagna, where big waterparks sit right by the Adriatic beach, and Camping hu Eraclea Mare is a favourite of ours. Travelling with a mix of ages? Our tip is Lake Garda: Gardaland for the teenagers, lake swims for everyone and Verona just 30 minutes away. Couples should look at Tuscany. Camping Club Del Sole Viareggio Family Collection combines pine forest and beach with Pisa and Lucca, and we always suggest a day among the vineyards of Chianti. Teenagers who love city life will adore Lazio and Rome. If you want a real island adventure, choose Sardinia; for volcano views and sea-cliff swims, head to Sicily. Whatever you pick, book early for mid-August, and leave the car at the campsite when you visit old town centres. Buses and trains are far more relaxing, and you skip the limited traffic zone fines.

Frequently asked questions: Italy
Which region in Italy is best for a family camping holiday?
Veneto and Lake Garda are our top picks for families. At Camping hu Eraclea Mare in Eraclea Mare, a 9-hectare waterpark sits beside the Adriatic coast, while Baia Holiday Gasparina in Castelnuovo del Garda is just minutes from Gardaland. Both keep children of different ages busy from morning to bedtime.
When is the best time to go camping in Italy?
May suits sightseeing, with highs of 24°C in Florence and Rome, and September stays at about 25°C, ideal for beach days. Mid-August is the liveliest period, so book early. For a quieter coast, try Camping Costa d'Argento Village Club in Capalbio on the Maremma coastline.
Which Italian campsites have water parks?
Camping Village Pineta sul Mare in Cesenatico has a lagoon pool waterpark and a pine forest beach, and Rosapineta Camping Village in Rosolina Mare has a sea-view pool with a kids' slide. On Lake Maggiore, Homair - Camping Village Lago Maggiore offers the Mago Bay waterpark with slides and a splash zone.
Can we fly to our campsite in Italy?
Yes. Schiphol has direct flights to Rome Fiumicino in about 2h20, Venice Marco Polo in about 1h56 and Milan Linate in about 1h39, and Transavia flies Amsterdam to Olbia for Sardinia. Families heading for Rome can stay at Camping Baia Holiday Roma Capitol, with its lagoon pool complex and easy access to Rome and Ostia.
What do we need to drive to Italy from the Netherlands?
Via the Brenner Pass you need an Austrian vignette (€12.80 for 10 days), pay €12.50 for the Brenner motorway and then Italian tolls per section. Via Switzerland a CHF 40 vignette is required. A caravan needs no extra Austrian vignette, so you can pack the whole family and head south.
