Can you park in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele?

Hi we are considering this park for June 2022.

Can anyone tell me what days you can fly to Pisa from Shannon/Cork/Dublin? Hoping to fly late June but can’t book it until I know the flights will match.

Hey everyone,

Off on my first ever cruise in October - covid permitting.

Can you recommend me a decent car park for 8 days?

We will be driving up from darkest Basilicata the day before and stopping in an hotel for the night.

Perhaps there is a nice (cheap) hotel that will let us leave our car in their car park while we are away?

I am travelling to Altominico family park in July with my family (10, 7 & 4) . Do you know if there is bike hire on site or near by and if so what is the cost. I am also looking to see if you can hire a car at the campsite and if so at what cost. We are not hiring a car and getting a taxi from the airport to campsite. Any tips would be great. Thanks

Hi

After a lot of thought we changed our plans to stay in Castellamare instead of San Vito. The reason was because we wanted a more authentic Sicilian town without hordes of tourists and crowds and really like the look of the marina, fishing boats and buildings.

We are really keen to go to Scopello and Zingaro by boat but can only find tours from San Vito, any advice on this? How much is it to rent your own boat, how does this work, how far is it to Zingaro? If boat is not an option, how frequent are buses and how far is it? I read somewhere that the park is partially closed due to a fire is this still the case? We will not have a car.

Is there any local beach in Castellamare or anything else to do if we don’t want to go to Zingaro every day?

FYI our itinerary will be:

Flying into and out of Palermo we have 10 full days

3 nights Castellamare

3 nights Trapani/Erice

3 nights Favignana

Many thanks!

Thank you for your advice on my previous post. We have changed our travel plans a little bit and plan to spend 1 full day in Rome before heading down south and would love advice on how to perfect our first time in Rome. We will be arriving at Fiumicino at 5pm on July 28 and will get our rental car at the airport. We will be then driving to Rome and staying at a hotel about a minute away from the Colosseum and plan to leave the car at an overnight car park. Unfortunately, Colosseum will be fully closed on July 29, so we plan to visit on July 30 before leaving, hopefully. Here is what I have planned so far for the day of July 29 (hopefully everything is within a walking distance)

-Starting off our walk from our hotel near the Colosseum to the Piazza Venezia

-Trevi Fountain

-Pantheon, Piazza Navona

-Spanish Steps

-Castel Sant’Angelo

- Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel

-St. Peter’s Basilica

I have a few things we need advice on:

1) What is the best way to get around Rome, should we stick to walking? Should driving around with our rental car be avoided at all costs?

2) Please suggest any restaurants or cafes that you have beloved on Rome trips that we must absolutely visit.

3) Any other tips or places we should include on our itinerary.

We plan to leave Rome in the morning of July 30.

I am a bit lost to what we should do as my parents are not avid walkers but it is very difficult to decide what to do in the limited time we have there. Any advice would be appreciated.

We will be visiting Sicily end of June, beginning of July. We will be travelling in a rental car. We know Palermo is not a city to travel by car, but we would love to spend a few nights there anyway.

So could anyone give us some advice a place where we could stay and park our car safely during our visit of the city. We would be arriving and leaving from the direction of Cefalu. Thx!

Hi,

We will be passing through Milano next Sunday on our way to Toscany. I was wondering if there is a parking place near the Duomo where we could park our small but 3m high camper for a couple of hours just to visith the cathedral?

Many thanks for any advice!

We're looking to include Procida in our Italy trip itinerary. We're driving a car, and would like to stay a couple of nights in Procida while on the way to Ischia.

Now, obviously, there is no need to drive a car on Procida. However, I need the car on Ischia, so I wouldn't want to leave it in either Pozzuoli or Ischia.

Is there some place near the port where I could park the car so I can stay in a hotel in the old town for a night or two?

Hi

We are planning to visit Sicily next May. We will base ourselves in Trapani then would like to spend a few days in San Vito lo Capo but timing wise that would mean getting a bus there on a Sunday.

Do buses run in May there?

Thanks

Hello, my mother is flying into Malpensa from a list D country while transiting through a list E country, and currently the Italian gov website says travellers must undergo a "molecular *OR* antigenic swab carried out within 72 hours prior to entry into Italy and the result of which is negative". I just wanted to be 100% sure that it's ok for her to take the antigen test (throat swabs) over the RT-PCR test; I am wary of telling her that the antigen test is ok (PCR test is 4 times more expensive where she is).

Furthermore, concerning the 72 hour test validity, I read on the Malpensa website "it is mandatory to undergo a swab test for COVID-19 in the 72 hours *prior to boarding*" --> 72 hours prior to boarding sounds very different from "72 hours prior to entry into Italy" as per salute.gov.it. How does one accurately calculate the 72 hour period? is it required that the test be conducted 72 hours from the time her flight arrives at Malpensa? or is it 72 hours prior to departure (which is what I also read on https://www.etiasitaly.com/pcr-test-entry-italy/). thanks for your help..
