Can’t make it to Italy’s “Beautiful Country” in person this year? Then sample the breathtaking sights from the vicarious comfort of a helicopter-mounted camera in this gorgeous aerial travelogue.
As seen on Public Television, Visions of Italy is the ultimate vacation postcard of Italy, including the sights and sounds immortalized for centuries in literature, movies, and art. Stunning aerial footage tours the cities and hill towns of Il Belpaese all the way from the Italian Alps to Sicily, in style and full color.
I have seen this video, set to Italian soundtrack, and several of my students have recommended it, saying it’s one of their favorite ways to ‘travel’ in the comfort of their own living room. Some even like to leave it running in the background!
Visions of Italy can be purchased in numerous places on the web (just Google it), and at many larger booksellers, such as Barnes and Noble. Prices I saw ranged from about $28-$40 new.
