💨 Abstract

Italy, a favored holiday spot for Brits, faces overtourism in cities like Rome, Florence, and Venice. To offer respite, travel experts suggest exploring "detour destinations," such as Brindisi in Puglia. Brindisi, known for its history, affordability, and connectivity to Greece, features sunny piazzas, a lively waterfront, and historical landmarks. Visitors can enjoy Roman ruins, beautiful beaches like Hemingway Beach, and local cuisine.
