🇮🇹Summertime in Puglia is right around the corner! Here are some spots we recommend:

Yes we know Matera is technically in the region of Basilicsta, but its totally worth visit if you are already in the Bari area.

All up and down Italy’s heel, Puglia offers so many stunning seaside towns, picturesque beaches and coves, and tons of amazing foods to try!
Also getting around the region by car is a great way to explore.

This jam packed route from Florence to Rome takes you to 5 different regions in Italy, one foreign country 🇸🇲, and two islands, showing you the very best of central Italy. This works great as a long road trip, however many of the cities mentioned are connected by train as well (except for San Marino, which is connected to Rimini by bus).
📍Regions: Tuscany, Emilia Romagna, Marche, Umbria, Lazio
A few highlights:
🇮🇹Le Marche is an underrated region along the Adriatic Sea that is often overlooked by or unknown to American tourists.
🇮🇹Umbria, referred to as Italy's green heart, shares much of the charm of Tuscany such as ancient hilltop towns and a famous history of winemaking.
🇸🇲San Marino - one of the smallest and oldest countries in the world that is definitely worth a visit!
🇮🇹Porto Ercole is located on the beautiful Monte Argentario peninsula in coastal Tuscany (connected to the mainland only by 2 narrow land bridges and the town of Orbetello)

Trenitalia is unveiling a new high-speed train route that will get you from Milan to Ljubljana in under 3 hours!
Looking to take a weekend trip to Slovenia from Northern Italy? Well the previously inconvenient and lengthy train journey from Milan to the Slovenian capital of Ljubljana is about to be streamlined with a soon to debut high-speed route on Trenitalia's famed Frecciarossa. The journey will take 2 and a half hours, and make stops in beautiful cities in Northern Italy along the way such as Venice, Verona, and Trieste. We expect operations to launch as early as April, with a schedule of one train per day, however plans to offer multiple trains per day are in the works. Happy travels!

One of the cultural cornerstones of Italy is the abundance of fresh, local, and affordable meat and produce or “prodotti locali.” The ritual of the weekend market; where locals buy fresh fruits and veggies, and browse the day’s offerings of fish, cheese, sausages, olives, and other tasty foods from nearby farms, is a way of life. We recommend seeking out local markets in any new city or town you visit in Italy to get a real taste of the local flavor and culture.

Torino (Turin), the unassuming capital of the Piemonte region of northern Italy, is often left out of the conversation regarding Italian cities worth visiting, despite being the 4th largest in the country. Torino is an underrated and approachable destination, especially for food and Barolo wine lovers. Some white truffle or gourmet chocolate anyone?

Bologna, the quirky capital of Emilia Romagna, beats to its own drum. Unapologetic in disposition and bold in flavor, you will find it hard to leave this city without a good meal and a good story. If you love pasta, mortadella, and a little bit of history, make sure you visit this gem in the heart of Italy.
Our favorite spot for lunch: 📍Trattoria La Montanara
