The August 15 'Ferragosto' Feast
of the Assumption holiday is set to cap a "golden summer" for
tourism in the Belpaese, Italian tourist group Federturismo said
Monday.
There has been a 3% rise in foreign bookings this summer and
all-round reservations are set to soar 6% in September, the
organisation said, citing a "boom" for camper vans and
agriturismi.
The southern beaches of Puglia, Calabria and Sicily have
attracted ever more tourists this year, followed by mountain
resorts and art cities, Federturismo said
