Traveling Italy?
I think,therefore I am asked:
We are planning to go to Italy in April.We have only four days in hand. Can anybody pls suggest some travel plan.We will start from Rome.Is it possible to cover venice,milan and Pisa if we first go down to Capri and then start to travel upward? How is the public transport in Italy? Somebody told us that it is problematic especially in cities if we hire a car.Streets are narrow and there are parking problems.Is it convenient (and suitable for us to cover the country in only 4 days) to travel by public transport with a child?Another thing, can u pls suggest a reliable,informative(train information etc.) tourism site other than italia.it.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks red_bilb from Umbria. Thank you the third answerer for the rly. information too.I too was tnot sure of that plan. That’s why I was checking your views. It’s not to be pessimistic or something like that.I know that it is hard to tell ,but can u (or anybody here) can suggest what part of Itally we should not miss.The cultural, historical,architectural part of venice, Milan, Rome or the overwhelming beauty of the Amalfi coast and the Blue Grotto of Capri. To be honest I am in dilemma.

Yes, you love.
i agree with the girl from Umbria. what you are suggesting is impossible in four days! Italy seems like a small country but it is actually a lot bigger than you think. Just Rome or Florence in four days would be more realistic and you would find plenty to occupy yourselves and probably enjoy it much more.. i was very impressed by the trains in Italy. I got a great ticket called a kilometrico (you can get them through your travel agent or CIT). it is great if you are going to do a fair bit of travel. it costs about 100 Euro, and basically gives you 3000 kms of travel and can be shared between up to 5 people, eg. five people can travel 600 kms each.
the schedule you are thinking of would involve at least half your time travelling, not including sleep etc! you would be exhausted and not get to see much.
if you only have 4 days, see florence and rome. take the subways and trains, dont hassle with cars, especially with a kid. and no, 4 days wont cut it. you will see so little and waste so much time traveling everywhere. just focus on rome and if you have time see florence.
i would most deff. get someone to drive for u. the street r extremly small. and people r wicked fast, dangerous drivers. i would be careful walking around. dont let ur wife carry a purse. wear a passport carrier, and keep everything in them. all of the passports, and money. i went when i was a senior in high school, and we had to be extremly careful. also there are people there called gypsis.(wrong spelling) but then basically the homeless of Italy. they steal a lot, so always keep anything valuible close to u. have fun though, it is an extremly beautiful place.
Hi, if you’re between the ages of 18-35 years old, you should check out Contiki. They have a few Italy tours that will let you see all the major cities in a short amount of time and you won’t have to worry about transportation, hotel costs, or some meals. It’s extremely convenient, you’ll know your budget exactly, and it’s a lot of fun! Feel free to email me at with any questions. Have a great trip!
