Untold Italy · Friday, September 4, 2026
Host Katie Clark and author Ed Cutler encourage travelers to venture beyond Italy's major tourist destinations like Rome, Florence, and Venice, and explore the country's interior, including the Apennine chain, Abruzzo, and Calabria. They highlight the potential for unique nature holidays and a more authentic experience away from mass tourism.
“But I would urge... people to discover the interior. The entire Apennine chain is just filled with remarkable places and towns and landscapes and villages.”
“So I think what's amazing is the fact of having the highest levels of biodiversity in Europe, which Italy does.”
“So Ed's book goes through a series of chapters and it's really like the elements, the chapters of the elements. And so I guess one of my favourite ones, because I do love a volcano, is around fire.”
