Italy is such a beautiful place to visit and experience many things with other people. However, how do you know what to do first in such a big and wonderful place? These are some of the best travel tips when visiting Italy. First, Italy is so much more than what people think it is. There are so many small islands to explore that will get you off of the mainland, some of these islands are Sicily, Sardinia and Elba! There are some beautiful beaches to visit, one of the beaches to go visit is Terracina and it is full of white sand and the prettiest water you will ever see! To get to these places, you are going to want to take a train. There is a high speed railway between the big cities of Rome, Florence and Venice (Lloyd, 2022). Of course you are going to want the local food they have there, and you will not make a mistake with whatever you choose. However, if you want a life changing experience you must eat the freshly made pizza! You can go to the expensive restaurants and get one, but a great choice would be the places in the quiet side streets that makes it feel more authentic and less like a tourist! (Lloyd, 2022). Last, but not least is to go visit the Colosseum in Rome, it is a breathtaking experience that you only get once in a lifetime!
