Dining
Meals are often long and social. Tipping is not required but is appreciated. If you enjoy wine, always as for the “house wine” as it is usually the most local and most inexpensive choice. It’s a great opportunity to try something unique! Dining is family friendly, and high chairs were always available when we needed them.

Our experience in Italy
Italy is a fantastic place to visit, especially with kids. We found it very easy to get around and explore this amazing place.
Italy is a country known for its deep history, diverse landscapes, and regional traditions. From ancient ruins in Rome to the vineyards of Tuscany and the canals of Venice, each area has its own distinct character.
Cities like Florence and Milan are centers of art and fashion, while smaller towns and rural areas offer a slower pace and a glimpse into local life. Whether you’re interested in history, food, or nature, Italy has a wide range of experiences.
During our time in Italy, we traveled by train, boat, and car, all with 2 small kids and their car seats! Check out the posts below for more information on how we did it and how you can too.
