Absolutely great tips I got got for a hotel room in Rome totally inflated prize not a great area. I’m going in October and I think now I’m gonna do exactly what you suggested and just stay at some of you know smaller cities in towns outside of the major spots, some of them are equally as beautiful too
Because I disagreed with your advice to travel an hour outside city center and pay $35 for 2 for ONE DAY travel to the city cent of choice, you delete me. Simple math says it cost more. Grow up!
Dear Wolter, how intensively should I study Italian before going? (June – July timeline)
Great video; Thanks!
This is awesome! Thank you 🎉
The tip about going away from the main attraction is very good and applicable to any touristy city. Another option is to get at the café of a museum if you are tight on time. Museo Correr on Piazza San Marco have a fine cafe with a gorgeous view on the piazza (on the second floor), you don’t need to access the museum to use the café. You can grab a reasonably priced panini, pastry and expresso while enjoying the view of San Marco Piazza at a table by a window.
Do they have unlimited train rides for 5 days? What about moving around within the city?
Every time i see this guy i just want to pack my bags. So many good memories from traveling to
If you go to the PAM, you can get a pasta and a salad for 5 euros.
In regards to trains, does the europass cover all the same sorts of train requirements in Italy?
Eat and drink on a budget, go to a supermarket, no café.
One of the best snacks I had in Venice was aperitivo with basically potato chips and cannelloni beans. Whatever they added in flavor was worth the trip.
Hi, Italian over here. Especially on the summer, try to eat more at dinner than at lunch. Just find a non touristy restaurant, but if you get too full during sun hours, you’re going to feel like you need two hours of sleep after lunch
Wow, thank you! I really enjoyed watching this video, so colorful and informative. I would love to visit Italy one day. Thank you for sharing!
Mark, why do you guys always take a train? Because I’ve found that renting a car costs the same or less. Plus a rental car enables you to go on your own time, it’s more comfortable, and you can avoid the pickpocketing dangers that lurk in public transportation.
Hi Mark! If I join the channel, do I get access to more tips for Italy travel? Going in March 2025. I'd also like to support the channel – which level may you suggest for someone still working but able to travel 6-8 weeks per year in off peak times (fall/winter/spring)? thanks!
Go to the Bronx. It's cheaper than going to italy
How early should one buy train tickets in Italy? One week? One Month?
Could you give some tips on how to get internet for my cell phone when I travel in Italy or France? Thanks.
I cannot emphasize enough that you don't want to tour the Amalfi coast on a big public or tour bus…ESPECIALLY if you have even a slight aversion to carnival rides or the mildest motion sickness. We took a Sita bus from Sorrento back to Nerano one afternoon and it was like riding a merry-mixer!!! I don't get motion sickness and I wanted OFF by the time we got to our stop!
love your tips and enthusiasm
Btw. Love your videos !
Especially the ones in Pgh!! Yes I’m a Pittsburgher! 💖😊
Hi!!!!
Where’s the best place in Rome for Aperitivo? Also. How can I email you?
As far as I recall, the Borgese Gardens are free. The Borgese Gallery is not, but it has a lot of great stuff, and it's not that big. The Vatican is huge, and the cool stuff is not concentrated. If you go to either be sure to get tickets ahead. Your tips are all on the money. Thanks.
When you say get your train tickets early, how early do you mean? Day before? Or for a 2 week trip, would you buy tickets for the whole trip before you arrive?
We are taking our Granddaughter to Rome & Venice, She wants to see the Sistine Chapel.. There are so many vendors for skip the line, is there a company you recomend to purchase from?
We've been binging all of your video.. Lots of great advise.. Thx from Dallas, TX
Thank you brother!!
Great video!!
I am loving Mark's comeback that's been happening recently
Walter where’s your other little boy?
really helpful video! thanks 😀
Where is the town pictured at 9:47?
The thing with the snacks that come for free with aperitivo is pretty much only true when you are in north-eastern Italy (basically Veneto, Friuli and Trentino).
Good job as always Mark, greetings from Padova! 🇮🇹👋🏼
Thank you for the tip about Pompeii Free day!
Stay outside the expensive areas, that’s the best advice I’ve heard on all the videos I’ve watched. I’ll just get up early and travel the hour or so to my destination
Wonderful, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks! This tips can be applied to many countries in Europe!
Excellent guide, so helpful! I'd also add another tip for Italy – ATMs most times dont charge fees but some bank ATMs are known to charge fees nowadays also, I recently got charged 5 euros at a bank ATM- so its worth finding those without fees. Then I used the ATM Fee Saver mobile app – it gives a list of the fee-free or low fee ATMs in Italy along with withdrawal limits for foreign card holders. I've used it many times and saves up on sooo much unnecessary expenses. Of course, decline conversion at foreign ATMs
It sounds so beautiful! It’s not in my own budget lately but trying to save up. My husband has family there and I’ll be happy if he decides to go. I could technically but we have cats here and I can’t imagine spending more than a week without working 😊
Great video. Found all these helpful. I wasn't on a tight budget but didn't want to be ripped off. I did struggle to find 'non tourist' restaurants though. Saying that a main part of the meal usually pasta was always around €14.
Found alcohol to be fairly expensive, although, it wasn't that sort of holiday. Beers usually around €6-7. Far too much to see and enjoy to waste a day with a hangover.
Last time I visited Rome in January 2020. The weather was perfect – dry and sunny and chilly. Everything as I like!
You sound like jack black! It's awesome!
Budget tip: stay with relatives.
Heading to Italy on my own (I’m 18) for the first time. Doing lots of research on Money saving. This defo helped thanks!
100% on aperitvio! That is one of my fave part of Italy! Some of the best aperitii we have had was in Bologna!
Thank you for the Great points!
Question for everyone: he said to buy all train tickets in advance…is that even for smallish journeys 3 hours and less? I kinda wanted to stay flexible so i wouldn't have to pay fees to rebook but dont want super expensive because I waited till day of ..help?
So funny I'm from Bari Italy and my apartment is three blocks away from that church you show at minute 00:11
Mark Hi! Love your videos! I'm from Quincy IL, and know your mom! So my question is how far in advance should we book our train tickets? We are arriving in Rome on 9/28 staying 2 days and then heading to Florence on 9/30, we then catch our cruise ship from Venice on 10/4. thank you in advance for your help
How early to book train tickets? Going in mid September to Rome and Sorrento
@woltersworld -at about minute mark 6:15 you cover your mouth kind of and I can't discern what you're saying? Can you please say again here?
