On this break, we journey to two of Europe’s most picturesque regions, including one of Italy’s most spectacular lakes – Lake Garda. Known for its breeze-rippled azure waters and pretty lakeside resorts, it’s a wonderful place to unwind. This is combined with time exploring Austria – from snow-dusted peaks to beautiful cities such asSalzburg and Innsbruck, there is plenty to discover.
