“What a gem of a guide book, useful in so many ways! I lived in Europe for five years and traveled all around the continent, Italy being a favorite destination. I have been back many times for visits of 2 to 6 weeks, and yet this Italy travel guide gave me perspectives and information that I hadn't come across before. From information on the trains and on how to access unique experiences, this book will surely enhance my next trip to Italy. I'll be checking out Airbnb Experiences and the With Locals website. So much good information! So many great suggestions! I love the way the guide helps prioritize what to see in a limited amount of time. This guide is a must have, must read book as you plan your first, or fiftieth, trip to Italy.”
