Italy Is Waiting For You - Get Going!

On this blog, I hope to give folks some inspiration and hints for traveling to Italy especially if that is a lifelong dream. We had no trouble reserving flights, buying train tickets, booking a tour or two and finding perfect lodging on our own. Be sure to click on all of the high-lighted links for a lot more great information. We have made four 14-17 day trips to Italy since 2011; we planned each trip from start to finish.-Barry DeCarli
