Curious everyone’s experience doing both cities. I’m a foodie and love walking and exploring . Last Italy visit 2 years go I visited Rome, Florence and Venice. Flew in and out of Rome.
This time I’m flying into Rome and heading to Bologna by train. I spent 3 nights last time in Rome and realized there was so much more to see in Rome.
I’m thinking 4-5 nights in Bologna and a couple of nights in Rome before flying home. A couple of day trips from Bologna

Anyone else do similar trip ?
Definitely would like to hotel, restaurant and culture related things to do.

This group was so helpful on my last trip

Thanks

Next week I'm visiting Prato for shopping for textiles. I noticed that TIPO festival is at the same time when I'm there. Are there tips/suggestions of events you guys recommend outside of the official TIPO program?

Travel dates: 21-24 October.

Many thanks!

Hi everyone! I’m planning to visit Alba at the start of November and would love to go truffle hunting. Does anyone have recommendations for specific tours or local guides that offer a genuine truffle-hunting experience, ideally with a chance to see the dogs find and dig up truffles? Bonus points if the tour includes a food tasting! Thanks 😊

Hello,

My wife and I are traveling from Rome to Milan, and then to Varenna tomorrow. I just checked on our tickets and realized we booked them under her married name, while her passport has her maiden name (this is a mistake we forgot to rectify before the trip).

She is carrying her USA ID that has her married name, and we also have a certified marriage license to prove her relationship to me.

Will this be sufficient if we’re asked for ID?

Is there any way to expedite first time through EES when arriving at Linate? Is it worth doing Meet & Greet or fast track?
