Italy Travel FAQs
A trip with Odynovo allows you to have a tour with freedom and flexibility. You decide where to visit, when to see, what to eat and where to stay.
How many days do I need in Italy?
The ideal number of days for Italy depends on the regions you visit and how deeply you want to explore each destination. A classic one-week itinerary typically covers Rome, Florence, and Venice, but many travelers prefer spending 10 days in Italy for a more relaxed and immersive experience.
How about transportation in Italy?
Getting around Italy, especially from Rome, is quite convenient. The country's public transportation is generally reliable and efficient, while private cars offer more flexibility. Remember to validate your paper ticket before boarding to avoid fines. You can find ticket validation machines at most train stations and on buses.
When is the best time to visit Italy?
Italy, with its many top tourist destinations, offers something special year-round.
During the spring (March to May) or early autumn (September to October), when there are fewer crowds but comfortable weather, it's better to visit famous attractions like the Colosseum, enjoy hiking among the colorful seaside villages of Cinque Terre, or explore the vineyards and charming villages of Tuscany. Travel to Sardinia, Amalfi Coast, or Sicily for a more relaxing beach vacation in Summer (June to August) while in Winter (December to February) outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy skiing in Alpine regions (such as the Dolomites) with hot springs and spas.
Do I need to book tickets for major attractions?
In Italy, it is highly recommended to purchase tickets in advance to avoid long lines, especially for popular sites like the Colosseum, the Vatican Museums, and the Uffizi Gallery. Many major attractions have timed entry slots, and same-day tickets may sell out quickly, particularly during peak tourist seasons.
For iconic landmarks such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Last Supper in Milan, and Doge's Palace in Venice, advance booking is also advisable to secure your preferred visit time. Some attractions even offer skip-the-line or guided tour options, which can enhance your experience and save time.
What do I need to know about hotels in Italy?
City Tax
In most cases, the city tax is not included in the quotation and must be paid directly at the hotel upon check-in or check-out.
- The tax is charged per person, per night, with the amount varying based on the city and the accommodation type.
- Most hotels accept both cash and credit card payments for the city tax.
Hotel Check-in & Check-out Times
Most hotels in Italy have a check-in time between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM, though some boutique hotels may have later check-in times, around 3:00 PM-5:00 PM.
- If you arrive early, some hotels may allow early check-in if your room is ready. If not, the hotel offers luggage storage so you can explore the area while waiting.
- Late check-out may be available upon request, often for an extra fee.
