Fun in Tuscany - this is the #1 Tuscany tour I have recommended to friends and family for years, they always love it and it's good value, plus you literally ride a Vespa through Tuscany... If Sam (Issam) is your guide please tell him Jess Dante says hello! funintuscany.com/NEW-VT.php

I've been to Naples before and it was absoulutely amazing, I highly recommend visiting
I enjoyed watching your video. My family and I recently got back from a 3 week vacation in Europe where we spent time in Rome exploring the sites. It was amazing. We can't wait to go back!
We are going to Rome, Florence, Padua, Treviso, Genova, and Cinque Terre! Thank you for the tips!
I just turned 18 and I’m going to Italy for two weeks next Friday :O I’m super exited and I’m going alone so it should be fun to get to know new people!
One of the most beautiful countries in the world ❤🇮🇹
Thank you for the very informative video. I'm going to Rome, Venice, Florence and Milan.
These were so helpful!! I'm going to Milan, Cinque Terre, Verona/Padua, Lake Garda and Venice next month 😭 so excited. Thanks for the tips x
Welcome!
As always interesting tips, I will be visiting Italy in October; Rome, Milan & Florence. Thanks
Very good advice.. I suggest that if you want to see beautiful islands an beaches to take a trip to Sicily or Sardinia, and Bari, in the Apulia (Puglia) region has beautiful beaches, full of rock in contrast to sand. Overall our country is so beautiful and everyone should be able to enjoy it
Yes!
Im visiting relatives in Calabria, and Battipaglia, Italy♥️♥️ I can’t wait! Im trying to learn phrases through Rosetta Stone, it’s similar to Spanish, so that helps since I took three courses of Spanish!
This is practically one of the best videos about this...Thanks! On my way to Italy then !
Yay thank you!
I'm going to Capri, Venice, Rome, Florence, bologna, Naples, and Turin. I'm so excited!!
Have a great time Mia!
It's also great to rent a car in Italy! We've done it, and we're going to do it again this month. You have your freedom, roads are great, it's not even that expensive at all. And no stressing about train schedules and carrying your luggage everywhere
Yup! I don't recommend having them in the major cities though. Parking is tough and expensive, plus navigating through cities can be very hard (or expensive, like in Florence, you need a permit)
Hii! Thank you for making this video. I'm hoping to go to Milan, Italy this summer to visit one of my bestfriends.
I hope you make it there Maria! :)
Love and London thank you so much ❤😊
Thank you for your video! I’m so excited I’m going to be staying about 30minutes away from Florence and I’m watching all the videos to get ready!!!
Have a great time!

Ciao! Grazie for the tips! I really wanna go to Italy soon! I studied basic Italian but I need to learn it further once I'm there 😊
Ciao Shereen, e prego! You should definitely go. Try to visit one of the lesser-known places so you aren't tempted to speak English with everyone :)

Can't imagine eating dinner at 9 or 10pm... I'm already asleep by that time normally lol. My husband and I want to travel to Italy next year, hopefully we can adjust to things like that! Not having to wake up before sunrise for insane American work hours will help I'm sure.
That definitely will help. Have a great trip!

Off to Europe next week. Will just be hitting up Florence and Rome for my first eurotrip. Will no doubt be keen to go back and explore Italy in more detail in the future.
Learning basics of each country is something I like to do. Locals always appreciate it and you can even make friends ;)
For my trip I am learning basic French, Italian, German, Czech and Ukrainian. Seemed a bit overwhelming at first but I understand subtleties of each language now.
Good luck with your language learning and have a wonderful trip!
Thanks for ur tips . I'm going to Milan in the summer 😬😊🙌🏼
Lovely! Have a great time!
I'm going to Cagliari, Naples, Rome, Florence, Luca, Venice & Milan! Can't wait!

Me and my wife are finally going to italy this summer. Originally we were set to go for our honeymoon in June of 2020, but the trip was postponed due to covid. We got credit for our tickets though which have to be used by the end of the year so we are making our reservations now for mid summer. We will be going to Rome and Florence.
nice post thanks!
Hi Love and London

Every place seems very good to visit :-D

I've also got a couple more Florence tips on my site: loveandlondon.com/category/europe-tips/europe-travel-tips/italy/ Hope that helps too.
We are going to Rome. However we will be taking day trips to Florence, Pisa,Naples and more. Thanks for the advice.
those are quite far for day trips! I would recommend reducing the amount of day trips and instead doing a couple days in Florence and maybe a couple days in Naples. Have a great trip!
Vado in Italia a Roma, Toscana, Chianti e Cinque Terre. Your advice was excellent and I'm prepared, including enough Italian to meet people and make friends. Ritorno in Italia dopo di quarant'anni.
Aw I'm glad you had a great time!! :D
What a great video, very informative! I’m going to Naples in September and I can’t wait! Do you have any tips on visiting Naples?
Never been but make sure you eat lots of pizza :)
We are going to Rome in September for anniversary honeymoon -will be celebrating 20yrs x great video x
Early congrats!
Love and London Thankyou x
Thanks for the tip about validating your ticket for the train & bus and about taking cash. I hadn't heard about that from anyone, yet.
You're welcome :)
We're going to Italia! We're going to gardaland (i think i spelled it wrong :D) It's gonna be the coolest thing in my life! By 20:00 we'll be in the bus!

Elisabeth Gagné How did you like it?
Lore Zn they broke up
This was great! We are going in June for the first time - staying in Tuscany and plan to check out Florence.
+kellyhasadventures You'll love both Florence and Tuscany Kelly, but in the summer heat I think you'll love the countryside even better than the city!
I was thinking the same!
Have a great time :) Tag me in your Instagrams so I can see what you get up to!@Jess_inLondon
Thanks!
I am returning to Italy Oct. 2017. I love Florence, Tuscany and the hill towns. Bringing two first timers into Rome for 3 days, then renting a Fiat to explore Tuscany for 6 days, Staying on a farm, hoping to harvest olives at the end of the month. I want to live there in a few years. Will be looking to rent first. I so love ITALY!
Me toooo!
Liked you advice btw.
I'm going to Italy with my family to spend 10 days on monday, I'm very exited because it was quite a while since the last time I was there and I'm looking forward to seeing some interesting buildings, locations, etc.
Enjoy it Max!
Love and London Yeah thanks I'm on my way right now!

Hi. I've been i Italy 6 times, mostly in Bologna. I would like you to recommend. Great places, better people. Enjoy the travel.
Cool!
Your video was great and very informative! My cousin and I are visiting Italy for the first time next month, June 18 - 28! We'll be in the Florence area June 18-21, taking the Italo train to Rome (Jun 21-24), then heading to Positano Jun 24-28 (frecce train & shuttle). Then we're heading to London Jun 28 - July 1. This is our first time visiting Europe so we are making the best of it :) -LaRissa
Do you have a vlog with any recommendations for authentic restaurants or places to explore in Florence? We've already booked day trips for the best of Tuscany tour and the Cinque Terre Trek... but we're staying in a B&B near the SMN train station and Florence and plan to explore the area the day we arrive and the morning before we leave. We've been learning basic Italian too... sooo excited!
Ah have a great visit! I will have some Florence videos next month but they might not be published until after you've been. Read my blog post: loveandlondon.com/7-must-do-things-with-48-hours-in-florence/ That's a good start!
Love and London grazie! 😊
I'm going to Rome, Sicily, and Malta!
Woohoo! Have a great time Eden! Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Just come back from Milano , I want to go back 😭❤️🇮🇹
Had a great 10 days in Florence. Did a museums-art gallery-churches-palaces marathon during that time, eating only street food (Lampredotto!), walking up to Piazzale Michelangelo spending hours there, and waiting 4 hours for the sun to set and lights to come on at the Ponte Vecchio. Only disappointment is that there seem to be only a handful of buildings with Sgraffito facades there - Sgraffito being a popular wall-decor technique during the Renaissance.
Great!
Thank you so much for the video, very Informational. I am definitely interested in visiting Florence. Do they have a Dante museum/memorial/ monument? I am going there next summer 2019.
I'll be studying abroad and living in Florence for two months this summer!
+Sami Holzman ugh AMAZING!! Have a GREAT time Sami, I know you will. Thanks for watching and commenting!
My wife and I are comming to Italy in late June thru early July. we will be in the Toscana area going to Pisa and Florence and planing wondering the smal towns all around that area. We will also be up and down the west coast.
Incredible sounding trip Robert! Enjoy it, it will be incredible in the summer (but toasty so bring your swimsuits!)
Planning to go to Rome and Venice :)
I'm going to Florence in two weeks!
Have a great time!
Here's my video about Florence: ruclips.net/video/LO_FehyeWHE/видео.html
I'm going to Florence in a couple of months!! Do you have a video or advice on the best places to eat great cheap food? Or what are the mush see locations ? Thank you so much loved your video! Short but yet full of information
Thanks so much Angie! I hope to have those kinds of videos sometime soon, make sure you're subscribed to see when they go live :)
I’m going to Capri in April for 5 days, and Rome for 2.
Hey there! I'm going for a 13 day trip to Italy and the places I'm visiting are Milan, Bologna( from there I intend to go to Florence, Venice and Pisa on day tours, but I don't know how to travel to those places. By bus, car, or train?), then Naples and Rome finally!! I can't wait!! 😊😊
Hey Mehul! You can get to all of those places easily by train. Have fun!
Thank You soo much! Your tip guide really helped. 😊 I'm sure with your tips I'll have a lot of fun!!!
In three weeks I’ll be going to Rome, Naples, Monopoli, Bari, Termoli, Predappio, Venice, Verona, Cantu, Milan, Novara, Pisa, and Florence.. Florence will be my last stop! Oh and will also drive up to Lugano, Switzerland while in Cantu 😁 .. thanks for sharing these tips!! What are some good restaurants where I can eat with the locals and get some good authentic food and wine from the region.. ? in Florence
Hey thanks, this is a really nice kickstarter video to visiting Italy. Would be visiting Venice, Florence and Rome with day trips to Cinque Terre, Pisa and Tuscany region. Also looking to see if I can squeeze in Pompeii. Looking to explore the countryside and local culture more than the touristy destinations. Any tips on that, specially Florence and around?
Pranay Krishnan Pompei and Ercolano are the best places to explore in italy. A real miracle of history that you don't find in other places in whole world! I suggest you to visit them.
I've been wanting to go there for years (at least 5) and In 3,5 months I'm flying *jumps from excitement*. First I'll be in Rome, because I want to go to Rainbow Magicland. Then I'm going to go to Sardegna and stay there for half a week, after that Sicilia for a week (because every boat that fits my plans only leaves on friday) and then the last days will be in Napoli from where I want to visit Pompeii. Still planning what exactly I want to do, but the entire trip, meaning travel and hotels, is planned since the beginning of december. I am so enormously exited! =D
Anche, io imparo italiano e posso parlare la lingua passabile. Credo che non sarà una problema.
Have a great time! :)
Im going to lake garda this July
If you want, you can visit the south of Italy. I live in Puglia( is a region) and everyday i can find new views to visit and new local foods to taste. There is an amazing seaside similar to Carribea. I think that is a nice place to visit. I'm sorry for my English, i'm not very good :)
Bravo Vito. I've been to Puglia, my grandmother was born outside Bari. It's lovely.
going to Rome soon, guess I'll have to get used to the late night dinners
+Jeff L amazing! Yes, I think you'll learn to embrace it :)
Thanks for the information. Heading to Florence in a few days. Will my Spanish be helpful communicating in Italy?
A teeny bit Eric but don't try to speak Spanish there :) It will help with some reading!
My wife and I live in Las Vegas never been out of country 25th year anniversary we've always wanted to go to the amalfi coast so we're looking at Rome Florence and the amalfi coast
Very nice!
I'm going on tour for a week and have never travelled before!
Have a great time!
Oh I wish I'd found this before I went to Rome, it would have been so useful :( oh well now I know where to come next time :)
Hehe exactly :)
About Taxis and stuff, it's not because the Taxi system is complicated, it's because it is not developed AT ALL. In italy it's much more common to take buses. So if you Wanna travel around you buy a ticket in a newsstand/cafe (they usually sell them) and take the bus (if you find the right bus driver you can also buy a ticket from him, but be careful because of they catch you with no ticket you Will have to pay like 50€). Trust me, I Know it because i'm italian :)
+Ale il Pezzo I always found the bus system so confusing and have gotten so lost on them before!
Love and London Yes, that is right, it is getting worse and worse...
How much do they charge for a cab drop from the Florence station to the city center?!
I didn't find that to be the case about shops and places closing. Just saying...Also, I was there in September and was in the water in the Cinque Terre swimming with the Nonas. Not too cold. Wonderful place to be though. Loved it all.
Touristy spots don't tend to close, but the more local ones do :)
will be visiting Italy in May
Great!
Same!! I can’t wait!!
the great italy
