Useful Tips

If you have extra days, why not visit the Amalfi Coast, explore the Vatican City, or enjoy a wine-tasting tour in Tuscany. However, if you have less time, you can skip one of the locations or replace it with an activity that interests you the most. Also, be aware of the weather and dress appropriately since some of these activities may require comfortable shoes and long-sleeved clothes. Most importantly, make sure to carry a water bottle, snacks, and a camera to capture beautiful memories.
