Italy Travel Guides

Italy has a special place in my heart. I am from Rome and I have called Italy home for over 40 years. I have experienced it as a local, I had the privilege of studying its history in University (I am a Roman history graduate from the University of Rome) and I have traveled Italy extensively on my own, with friends and now with my husband and kids.

Over the course of all these years, we have traveled Italy from North to South, taking in the natural beauty of the Dolomites, the stunning heritage of Sicily and everything in between.

On this website, we have very many articles about Italy, packed with practical travel tips, information and itineraries we designed on the basis of our own travel and experience.

In these pages, the articles are in reverse chronological order but, to ease your search, I have also prepared this quick overview of some of our cornerstone articles, those that will help you navigate the site and find the information most relevant to you.
