Italy has so many faces that a lifetime isn’t enough to see them all. Rome, Florence, and Venice are just the beginning; just around the corner lie Umbria, Puglia, Calabria, and Sardinia places that guidebooks from bookstores barely mention. What to see in Italy depends on what you’re looking for.
In this section, you’ll find guides to Italian cities and regions. What to see, where to eat great food without paying tourist prices, how to get around by train, and why Italy deserves more than just a quick stopover. Sicily has its own sub-section. It’s big enough to warrant one.
Ad space: We love Italy and keep going back. We book our accommodations through Booking.com. Italy offers an exceptionally wide range of options, from agriturismi to designer hotels. For guided tours, wine cellar tours, or cruises along the Amalfi Coast, we recommend GetYourGuide.
Choose a city or region and start reading. Italy awaits and always has something to offer.
Destinations are at the heart of this blog. We’ve visited every place we write about ourselves we don’t copy anything from Wikipedia, and we don’t sugarcoat our experiences to make them sound like a “great vacation.” We write about what we saw, what went well, and what we’d do differently next time.
In this section, you’ll find guides to destinations from around the world Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. From major cities to national parks to coastal villages that haven’t yet been overrun by tourists. Each destination has its own section with tips on accommodations, transportation, food, and activities organized to save you time, not add to your worries.
Ad space: When planning our accommodations, we rely on Booking.com, we book guided tours through GetYourGuide, and we always compare flight prices on KAYAK. This isn’t an advertisement it’s just what we use ourselves.
Choose a continent, country, or city and start planning. Or just let yourself be inspired that’s a good place to start, too.

There are places in Sicily where you will understand why people come back. Zingaro Nature Reserve is one of them. But to understand why this place is so important, we need to go back a few decades. The whole story began in the 1980s, when a road was being built...
