Vibo Valentia Guide

What is there to do in Vibo Valentia?

Hidden away in the small peninsula towards the south of Italy, Vibo Valentia is often forgotten about in the search for a classic Italian getaway. Those that do visit the spectacular landscape and mesmerising architecture are almost relieved that few know about the city’s allure – the more space to enjoy the landmarks and walking trails – the better the experience. Part of the charm lies in the city’s dexterity; thick forestry allows ardent hikers to challenge themselves against the arduous, yet beautiful terrain, whilst history lovers can peruse the incredible buildings that symbolise the antiquity belonging to the region. There is a semblance of religious history in many of the more striking edifices, especially the Convento Santuario San Domenico and Duomo di Santa Maria Maggiore e San Leoluca which are both breathtakingly beautiful pieces of work. For an insight into the protective forces belonging to Vibo Valentia, a few castles and ancient ruins showcase the impressive structures which were in place for many centuries.

How do you get around Vibo Valentia?

The city is relatively small and compact so the city centre can be covered almost entirely by foot.
