Italy may not be a massive country, but there’s enough to see and do that it’s a little on the ambitious (if not a bit crazy) side to just say “I’m going to take a trip to Italy” without narrowing it down to a list of specific cities or at least regions you want to visit.
Italy is a dream destination: incredible art and architecture, amazing food, fabulous wines, and more culture than you can handle in a week or two. It’s a place you really need to visit at least once in your life.
Like every country, Italy has its own customs and quirks, and if you’ve never been, it’s tough to know what to expect.
We put together this handy guide for first-time visitors to help you make great decisions about your trip, and enjoy your time in this beautiful place.
What to Do in Italy
There is absolutely no way I can list here (or on any one page) all the things there are to do in Italy. In fact, in some ways, you can consider this entire website a list of what to do in Italy. But while this conversation is absolutely best done at the city or regional level, there are a few articles I can link to here that may help you get started with your trip planning and figure out how to prioritize all the things you really want to see or do.
ITALY ON A BUDGET - Ways To Save Money on your travel in Italy - Tips on Saving Money in Italy - Simple ways to save on your trip to Italy
Travel during shoulder season.
October to December or early spring are the best times to experience Italy.
Airfare from the U.S. and Canada is typically lower, crowds are less dense, and the weather is still mild.
Stand at the bar while snacking.
See all those locals standing at the counter drinking their morning coffee (and wine in the afternoons)?
That’s because most bars and cafes have different prices for standing vs sitting down for table service.
By standing you’ll save enough for an extra coffee and a few pastries.
Sip happy hour cocktails. 7 to 9 p.m. is aperitivo time where the price of a drink also includes snacks (think Italian-style tapas) such as meat, cheese or finger foods.
Avoid restaurants where the menu is posted outside in English.
Look to see where locals eat and follow.
Here’s a handy guide for what and where to eat in Italy.
Whether you are heading to Italy to enjoy the fabulous food, to enjoy its varied history or to make the most of the beautiful surroundings, there are plenty of things to do and to savor in the country.
However, Italy isn’t the cheapest country to explore, and the costs can quickly mount up unless you keep a close eye on what you are spending and plan your trip to avoid excessive spending.
If you’re flying to Italy, being flexible in terms of the time you travel and the route that you take can make a big difference to the cost of flights. If you are traveling to Italy from other European destinations, check budget airlines along with train and bus routes to find the cheapest option.
Getting around Italy is significantly easier than other European countries because of their extensive and state of the art train network.
High-speed trains will be more expensive, around 40-70 EUR, but can get you to the other side of the country in just a few hours.
For cheaper options, Italy’s regional trains are a great alternative and get you where you need to go!
Book early and consider shoulder seasons
It’s no surprise that summer is the busiest tourist season in Italy.
If you want to book one of our favorite cheapo hotels, make sure to book as early as possible.
For even better rates (and fewer crowds!), visit in the spring or fall. For the absolute best deals, take your Italian holiday in winter.
Christmas in Italy is a treat, and Rome is especially beautiful this time of year and never gets too cold.
Sleep small and central
Large chain hotels are among the most expensive accommodation options in Italy.
These familiar brands usually come with lots of perks and a very high price.
Luckily for budget travelers, Italy is full of affordable hotels and pensions (family-run guesthouses) that not only offer low rates but also plenty of charm and character. Take advantage of these boutique hotels, family-run pensions, and even religious accommodations like convents to get the best deals.
Get out of town
Visiting Italy is about more than just the big cities.
Think outside the Venice Florence Rome tourist corridor and try visiting smaller towns and villages, where everything, from hotels to restaurants, is far less expensive. Consider heading down south to the affordable Calabria region, the central Umbria region, or doing a an “agriturismo” farm stay.
Book your train tickets yourself !
Planning to take the high-speed Trenitalia train between Milan – Venice – Florence – Rome – Naples?
Book those train tickets now, without an external train agency, and reap the savings.
Just like the locals, you can simply book your own seats (in English) on the Trenitalia website.
Take advantage of free museum days
Most of the larger tourist attractions and museums in Italy offer free entrance days throughout the week or at least once a month.
Do some research ahead of time and maybe you can synch up your trip to a few of the free days.
Pack a comfy pair of walking shoes and save You’re going to be walking… a lot
That’s a great thing, as most of Italy’s finest treasures are located along the cobblestone streets of its historic city centers. You’ll get there by hoofing it. And it’s not just the famous sights — your favorite and most romantic spots will probably be those that you’ve stumbled upon down some alleyway or back street (quite possibly when you’re lost).
All of it, when you’re walking.
Eat big lunches and save on dinner
Want to know a tasty little secret about saving in Italy? Eat your bigger meals early in the day. Most Italian restaurants serve dinner-size portions at lunchtime for far cheaper than you’ll pay for the same thing in the evening. And then you can lighten up for dinner, going with a picnic (see #9 below) or just grabbing a tasty panini.
Learn a few Italian phrases and get a guidebook
Knowing even just a few phrases of the local language goes a long way, no matter where you travel in Europe. Italian is a fun language to speak (and you get to throw in all those hand gestures!), so don’t be shy when you hit the streets. Learn some basics, and then just go for it!
Shop the markets for fresh (and super cheap) food
Italy is famous for its outdoor and indoor markets full of incredibly fresh produce, aged cheeses, handcrafted salami, homemade bread… hungry yet?
It’s a rite of passage in Rome to shop at these mercato all’aperti (open-air markets), and we’ve compiled some food shopping tips to help you get the tastiest deal.
SAVING ON ACCOMMODATIONS IN ITALY
There are some great budget accommodation options to be found around Italy, but even at the low-end, you are usually looking at around 30EUR a night for a bed in a hostel dorm room up to 90 EUR for your own room.
With the costs usually a fair bit higher in the big cities like Rome, Milan, and Venice, the option of booking accommodation in the suburbs of a town with good railway links to the city can often be cheaper than getting accommodation in the city center....
EAT & DRINK IN ITALY - CUISINE IN ITALY
The amazing cuisine is one of the main reasons that many people will visit Italy, but with a restaurant meal with a glass of wine costing 15 EUR or more, it is not an option every night if you are on a strict budget.
Many restaurants charge a “coperto” fee or tax for sitting down in the restaurant, so it is always important to read the menu before sitting down to see what the charge will be.
Many restaurants will try to draw people in during their lunchtime service with set menus, and if you can eat your main meal during lunch and then snack later in the day, this will undoubtedly help you to reduce your costs.
HOW TO EAT IN ITALY ON A BUDGET
Because Italy is the birthplace of many of our favorite dishes (gelato and pasta and pizza, oh my!), chances are, you’re going to want to sample as much of it as possible — and that adds up fairly quickly. If you’re confident in your own culinary prowess, renting an apartment or a house with a kitchen is a great way to save cash.
Picnic Party
Visiting Italy with a minimal food budget just means that you have to get creative at times. Those visiting during periods of pleasant weather should employ the picnic strategy whenever possible.
Seek out a local market and fill up on an assortment of Italian breads, pizzas, produce, cheese, and fruit. Grab a blanket and head to the nearest park or piazza, and there you have it: a delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner for a fraction of what you would have paid at a sit-down establishment. Plus, you’ll get some sun and an opportunity to people-watch!
WHERE TO GO IN ITALY ON A BUDGET
Visitors short on change should flee the cities (sad, but true). While Italian centers like Milan, Rome, and Florence have higher price points and encourage increased spending, countryside towns and villages offer more budget-friendly experiences without skimping on charm, history, or culinary goodness.
Visitors to Rome might escape to Castel Gandolfo, Tivoli, and Frascati; travelers in Milan should target the towns of Como, Lecco, Cremano, and Bergamo; and Florence-based budgeters can explore Lucca, Siena, and Prato. While some of these locales are more rustic than others, they’re all great options for travelers of modest budgets.
HOW TO TRAVEL IN ITALY
When sightseeing in Italy, it can be tempting to slide into the backseat of a cool cab after a long day, but instead of relying on taxis, Ubers, or other ride-sharing apps, resign yourself to the fact that public transport in Italy really is the best and cheapest way to go. (Rome and Milan, in particular, have incredible metro systems that are both efficient and easy to use.)
The views are mostly free in Cinque Terre
But you need to work for them.
That includes hiking the trail along the cliffs that connect the five villages.
The cost of the trail pass (which includes train fare, bus fare in all five villages, and wifi access) is very cheap.
Meals at the restaurants with sea views are more pricey, but there are plenty of bakeries and delis that make it easy to pack a lunch or snacks to fuel your hike.
Budget eats:
Savor the focaccia. For a few dollars pick up a giant slice of the yeasty bread topped with meat, cheese or locally prepared pesto. For a takeaway lunch or dinner, try the famous calamari (and other fired seafood) at Il pescato cucinato in Riomaggiore.
Explore the backstreets and canals of Venice
Step away from the Grand Canal and wander through the quiet(er) streets of the of Cannaregio neighborhood where you’ll find locals sipping coffee before work or dining at family-run restaurants where makeshift outdoor patios replace formal dining rooms.
Budget eats: Nibble on cicchetti (Italian-style tapas).
Choose from small bites of fried fish, cheese, and meats washed down with an Aperol Spritz while picnicking canal side at the casual Osteria Bea Vita in the Cannaregio. Or grab a cone of fried seafood at Acqua e Mais to enjoy while strolling the streets.
Experience the Renaissance in Florence
The entire city of Florence is a medieval masterpiece and its museums house the largest collection of Renaissance artwork in the world.
Galleria dell’Accademia is home to Michelangelo’s David sculpture and the Uffizi Gallery, one of the most visited museums in the world, is where to find works by Botticelli, da Vinci and Caravaggio, among others. The museums are free to the public the first Sunday of every month, but expect extra long lines on those days.
Live like a Roman
After ticking off the must-see sites including the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and Roman Forum, detour to the Trastevere neighborhood across the Tiber River for casual dinners, buzzing bars, and a labyrinth of photogenic alleys.
You’ll find street performers in the airy Piazza di Santa Maria, too.
Budget eats: Suppli is the Roman version of arancini (stuffed rice balls). I suppli in Trastevere serves up these fried snacks along with homemade pizza and takeout pasta in the small shop.
Alternately, the Testaccio Market is packed with fresh produce and prepared foods including shredded beef sandwiches at Mordi e Vai, and the best Cannoli in Rome at Dess’art.
Figure out what kind of trip you want to have
Italy’s got it all: 7,500 kilometres of coastline lined with hundreds of gorgeous beaches, numerous tourist attractions, lively cities, charming villages and sprawling vineyards. From low-cost to luxury, Italy has accommodation, restaurants and activities to fit every budget, whether it’s renting a yacht off the coast of Capri, staying in an affordable hostel in Rome or enjoying a Sicilian farmhouse getaway.
Pick the right season
In general, Italy has wonderful weather. Many areas of the country see lots of sunshine and temperatures are mild even in winter, though summers can be steamy. Depending on what you plan to do, make sure to consider the season. Beach visits are best in the summer, though months like May and September see fewer crowds and still have great weather.
Don’t forget about local spots
Visiting Italy’s most famous attractions should hold a firm spot on your bucket list.
That being said, plan to take some time to get off the tourist track a bit. Consider exploring more local neighbourhoods or visiting a small village or a less-popular spot like Lake Maggiore instead of Lake Como. Seeing all the big-name hotspots is a must, but experiencing the beauty of true Italian culture and cuisine may be even better.
Without a doubt, traveling to Italy for the first time is exciting and overwhelming. Going to Italy is even considered a lifelong dream. When asked about their number one travel destination, a lot of people will mention Italy right away. It feels as if everyone loves, loves, loves Italy.
Italy for the First Time is Magical
In this guide, I want to help you plan your very first trip to Italy.
I’m lucky enough to have visited Italy twice, once with a group and once alone, so I feel as if I’m in a good position to help you prepare for your upcoming Italian adventure.
First of all, Italy is very used to tourists. If you take the traditional Rome-Florence-Venice trail, then you’ll encounter plenty of English speakers.
There’s also fantastic tourism infrastructure in place for public transportation and major attractions.
And it’s very unlikely you’ll encounter destabilizing issues such as food poisoning or intense culture shock.
Furthermore, most people have a beginners’ understanding of Italy’s culture.
For example, Italian food is widely appreciated around the world.
We’ve all heard of the Romans and their impact on history.
In a lot of ways, Italy “feels” familiar even if you’ve never stepped foot in the country.
