Heads Up

Avoid Italian ZTLs (limited traffic zones) in historic city centers; park outside and walk or take public transport.

Book major attractions like the Colosseum, Vatican, Uffizi, and St. Mark's at least two weeks in advance.

Carry €50 in cash for small bars and public restrooms, though cards are widely accepted.

Use public 'nasoni' fountains in Rome for free, cold drinking water.

Consider high-speed Frecciarossa trains for the Rome-Florence-Venice legs to avoid driving stress.
