New Years Eve 2007 in Italy




Another year is over and we have to think about how we would like to say good bye to the year 2007 and how to welcome 2008!

After Christmas, this is the most special time of the entire year and every year we are put in front of the same question: What to do for New Years Eve? How to make it special this year?

Well, why not going to Italy
? One of the most beautiful countries in the world, with its world famous Tuscany, well known for its high levelled wines, its fantastic landscapes and its so romantic medieval cities and towns?

Wake up the first morning in 2008 in a real Italian medieval Castle like Castello di Vicarello near Grosseto, Castello di Tocchi in Siena or in one of the period residences as Relais Villa Petrischio in Cortona, Villa Marta in Lucca and you will feel like you stepped back in time for a few hundred years!
If not a castle, then a typical rural farm house: San Gimignano with its famous 14 towers, Siena, Arezzo, or a nice hotel in Florence!

Or Rome, where the city surely does not sleep this night in between two years? Where everybody is celebrating around the city in the piazzas, or in some typical restaurant or dancing club?

A special night could be organized in a Castle like Castello Orsini in Rocca Giovine where one has the choice between a
Gala Dinner including welcome drink with champagne for € 150,00 where the table is reserved all night long, a
Gala Dinner for € 130,00 where the table is reserved all night long, a
Buffet dinner for € 90,00 and the
Disco for € 40,00

Or at the Naif Cafè in the city center of Rome where you can choose between a

Gala Dinner for € 120,00 and a
Buffet Dinner for € 60,00

Otherwise, without wanting to organize too much in advance, just enjoy the Eternal City with its fireworks and celebrations throughout the city, having a walk and dancing through it.


Maybe better somewhere on the seaside? No problem: the Amalfi Coast has certainly has plenty of offers for this period. For instance the famous living cribs, outstanding in Praiano, Raito and Pogerola, or the sub pilgrimage to the ceramic crib in the Grotta dello Smeraldo (the cavern of the emerald) in Conca dei Marini.

If nothing of the above mentioned should be fine, there are so many wellness destinations in Italy. Just take some time to relax and book a beautiful spa hotel or some thermal accommodation as for example Abano Terme, Montegrotto Terme, Chianciano Terme.

Another great destination might be the Piedmont like Alba or Asti
. So many of Italy’s famous wines and truffles come from that region which offers a breathtaking landscape and many nice medieval villages.

It is not too late to look for a perfect New Years Eve 2007/2008. Many of the accommodations even have really interesting packages and special offers. Check out your best fitting accommodation for this very special night of 2007 with Dream Destination Europe and you can be sure to spend an unforgettable end of year in Italy!
