ITALY Readers's Tips - I've been to Italy twice in September.Once with Trafalgar and once with Cosmos.It is a lovely time of year. One of my necessities is a good washcloth.one of the hotels I've stayed at have wash clothes. Film is more expensive in Europe than the US and very expensive in the tourist places.f you are a picture taker plan for 1 roll a day or more.It is easier to bring home unused film than pay Big bucks for more. While jeans are more common now, they are still very casual.For dinners plan on khakis or a skirts. My personal opinion is to skip traveler's checks.ATMs are everywhere and most are part of the major ATM networks (check the back of your card for the plus or cirius logos.o call your bank and credit card company before you leave and let them know you will be traveling and that charges from Italy for a specific time are alright. If you read these boards you'll find a lot of good tips. Enjoy your trip. wish I was going.

Hi I am looking for itenerary ideas for a honeymoon in Italy, I know we want to go to a wine region and beach.ny suggestions Some other ideas os interests would be good, however some initial thoughts. The traditionally great wines are inland (Brunello and Barolo.nless a pool is an acceptable alternative, then these can be counted out. Sicily sounds like it might have good prospects, with good beaches, but also a recently resurgent wine industry.ry Donnafugata as a good start on the wines.lso look out for the local Malvasia (Hauner are good Puglia should be good (great at value, though few really prestige wines to date, though the beaches we saw didn't inspire. Tuscany is fantastic for wines and perhaps the Tuscan coast would allow you to taste the wines of Bolgheri on the Etruscan coast or Grosseto and Maremma to the South.oth are very impressive (does Sassicaia appeal that's down there, however I've no idea whether there are good beaches on the nearby coast. However, and this might influence your choice, there is great Italian wine pretty much everywhere.very town will usually have a wine bar, larger ones may have many.he standard of wine you can get by the glass is impressive and by the bottle even more so.he food served in these places has for us (so far been exceptionally tasty (generally on the light size on portions, but with tremendous flavour. For instance Amalfi has a great wine bar in an old monastery up above the main street.here are about 3 good wine shops there and others in Ravello, Minori, etc.here's also a decent winery in Furore (Marisa Cuomo along with more strightforward local wines.asting local wine with local food, you can often see how they've evolved together. I hope this helps Italian wine is a vast field and it's great chipping away at the edges of it regards Ian

We are going to Italy for our honeymoon too and wine is definitely one of our priorities.We plan to spend at least one day with a tour guide in Tuscany visiting wineries, etc. How long are you g
