Despite the country’s small size in comparison to the rest of the world, Italy has the most World Heritage Sites at 54.

Each World Hertiage Site Of Italy lecture, will be presented once again by Andy & Donna Moro. This dynamic couple will share their knowledge, starting with the Northern region March 26th continue with the Central region April.9th and conclude with the Southern & Insular regions, April 23rd

As part of this lecture series, we are also offering a special detailed travelogue segment you won’t want to miss called “Sulle Strade d’Italia” “On The Roads Of Italy”. This will feature some exciting information where we will discuss some lesser-known gems as we take you on a road trip vacation throughout the same three regions. 

Have you ever thought about a vacation to Italy but are just not sure of what to do, where to go, or how to plan it? Presenter Giuliano Lunardi will discusses the Northern region, April 2nd .
