Island of Ponza, Lazio

Explore the Cities and Towns of Lazio

Overview

Ponza is one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean, part of a larger achipelago of islands - the Pontine islands - a national park in the region of Lazio. It's easily accessible from Rome, but few travelers to Italy ever hear about it and Thank God because if peoiple found out about this place it would soon become over-run with the masses of tourists and cruise passengers that now flood Capri causing the cost of a coffee to be over 5 Euro! No way, not here on Ponza. You can still savour an espresso in a beautiful bay with all the colourful houses that surround you for under 50 cents!

The pontine islands offer not only incredible geology and landscapes - the islands are comprised of two groups: around Ponza, the largest, lie Palmarola, Zannone and Gavi; whilst at roughly 20 miles away there is Ventotene and, close by, Santo Stefano. Only two of the islands are inhabited throughout the year: those of Ponza and Ventotene.

With its picturesque villages and gorgeous beaches, Ventotene is a charming holiday destination and an affirmed favourite with scuba divers. In addition to the island's many natural wonders, Ventotene conserves a number of traces of its ancient Roman past. The two largest islands are linked to the mainland by a frequent ferry service.

I am a travel agent from Lebanon and have organized several group tours as well as individual tours of Italy with Italy Vacation Specialists.

I have traveled to Italy 2x with the IVS for my own pleasure trips and 2x for business with IVS. These guys really pay attention and make your trip go like clockwork. Italy is nuts, just saying!

They k ... [Read More]

We spent three short weeks seeing Piedmont and experiencing wine paradise there, then heading to Nice in France with our private driver and flying to Rome where honestly 4 days is NOT enough. They keep saying to spend more time and we could not agree more! You need to spend more ti ... [Read More]

As a travel agent, but also a traveler to Italy, thee is no other company I would recommend than the Italy Vacation Specialists.

I have been on 4 trips with the IVS team, firstly when they did my first 2 tri ... [Read More]
