Weekly parking in Levanto

Planning on a day trip to Lipari and Volcano islands. Staying in Taormina. Have a car and thinking of getting a ferry in Messina. Suggestions? Should I reserve tickets in advance? Issues with parking? Is there a better way to get there ? Milazzo? Thank you

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 are a ‘mature’ couple traveling to Italy with 11 nights open between Rome & Florence so decided to visit Sardegna in early September. Probably flying into Olbia & departing from Cagliari.

Enjoy white sandy beaches, crystal clear water (who doesn't?), swimming, drinking local wine & local food. Also realize that beaches in Sardegna are rocky.

Prefer to stay at hotels in town to walk to dinner and stroll around town at night. Will rent a car to drive to close beaches during the day, perhaps stay at a beach hotel for 2 or 3 nights if on a beautiful beach.

Any suggestions on itinerary - where to stay & for how many nights? Perhaps 3 locations with 11 nights? The more I read on this helpful forum, the more overwhelmed I become on where to stay.

San Teodoro, Orosei, Villasimius, Isola Carloforte? Departing from Cagliari; how many nights would you recommend staying there?

Will reserve rental car prior to arrival, as well as hotel 1st and last night. Should I make hotel reservations in advance for the rest of trip? September is a busy month and may be more so this year.

TYIA!

Is it possible to leave and come back to the parking lot with a 7 day pass orl is this pass only valid for one entry?

Hey guys✨ Hope everyone is safe.

I have an upcoming September trip to Italy and was thinking of staying in Naples for two nights, however I have a terrible (I mean really severe) phobia of all kinds of lizards. I was wondering if they’re very present in Naples, or if there are places where they are avoidable. How about other parts of Italy? If I go somewhere and there are many on the streets I’ll just end up locked in my room the entire time freaking out. Thank you in advance, kind regards

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?

experts we are planning a trip to Cinque this fall and rather than taking the train connection from Rome etc. We are thinking of renting a car parking it for our stay in Vernazza. Given we are 3 it would elevate the headache of luggage thru trains even though we are traveling light and gives us freedom in terms of arriving leaving etc. Any suggestions from experts?

Due to the unique current offerings airline wise we have 6 nights/7 days in Sicily as part of a broader trip. We fly into Catania midday day 1, and our departure is from Palermo at 8pm, offering a near full-day in Palermo on day 7 (with bags safely stored with our hotel)

My dilemma is allocating the 6th night.

So far we’ve settled on 2 nights in Ortigia, 2 in Taormina, 1 in Palermo. For our 6th night I cannot determine if we should devote 3 nights to Ortigia as our base to have more time for places such as Noto etc or place a 2nd night to Palermo to have 2 full nights between transfers.

My current thinking if 3/2/1 is arrive Catania middday day 1, head to Ortigia and spend afternoon/evening there.

Day 2 - visit Noto, Ragusa, Marzememi or so one (1-2 of these).

Day 3 - visit another couple of places

Day 4- drive to Taormina, staying there.

Day 5 - visit Etna or gorges etc

Day 6 - to Palermo, spending part of the day in Cefalu

Day 7 - Palermo till leave for our flight late in day.

Is this a wise itinerary or should we forego the 2nd day of exploring behind Syracuse in favor of 2 nights based in Palermo?

Hello. I am wondering if I can not enter the old town by my car, which possibilities I got, to travel trough the area with my grandmother. She can not walk long distances. Thank you for all answers.

I’m posting this for information as we had mixed messages before leaving for Italy.

2 of my children only have (just under) 5 months left on their passports. Before booking Ryanair flights to Italy I checked the gov.uk website and Ryanair website that both stated 3 months left on passports was needed. When we came to check in online with Ryanair, there is tick box to confirm you have 6 months left on your passport. Also stated in several places that you must have 6 months remaining. Various further web searches gave both answers. Calling Ryanair I was told, yes it had to be 6 months and we would not be able to travel. Having already booked airport hotel, parking and Covid tests we decided to try to fly.

(We had our Covid tests with collinsons at Stanstead which were excellent and efficient- they take swabs, email results sent in 30 minutes)

The result is - we are in Italy. No one cared/ mentioned the less than 6 months remaining on the passports.

Incidentally no one asked to see our Covid results (they asked if we’d had them before checking in but no evidence asked for)

Hope this helps someone. We had a very stressful preceding 48hours!
