Tyrrhenian Coastline
Clear views of the blue Tyrrhenian Sea and the rugged Maremma beaches shortly after departure from Rome.
Tuscan Archipelago
On clear days, the islands of Giglio and Elba are visible as silhouettes against the shimmering Mediterranean.
Lake Garda
Stunning views of the Sirmione peninsula and the vast blue expanse of Italy's largest lake during the descent.
Western Alps
A distant but majestic view of the snow-capped Alpine range stretching toward the French and Swiss borders.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the glare of the eastern sun. The highlight is the approach into VRN; if the plane lands toward the north, you will fly almost directly over the southern tip of Lake Garda. Keep your camera ready about 10 minutes before landing.

Apennine Mountains
The central mountain spine of Italy, featuring deep valleys and rugged limestone peaks like Gran Sasso in the distance.
Tuscan & Umbrian Hills
The iconic rolling landscape of central Italy, characterized by vineyards, olive groves, and ancient hilltop towns.
City of Mantua
The historic Renaissance city surrounded by its three artificial lakes, visible just south of Verona.
