Italy

I plan on going to Italy summer 2007. Are there any good vacation packages out there for a 10 day trip that goes to more than 3 cities that are all inclusive? Preferrably from north to south. I am looking for something similar to what Contiki has to offer but without an age limit. Thanks!

We want to go to Italy in Oct for 2 wks. We want to go to Rome, Venice, and Florence. I would also like to go to Milan because I am into fashion, but I was told it is not that nice. Should I skip it? The main thing we need to know if a group tour is better or if we should travel independently. We want to have some time to ourselves. Has anyone taken these tours, and how are they? We were thinking of Globus or Brendan tours. We would also like to travel to France and Amsterdam. Is this too much in 2 wks? Any suggestions for how we should travel, or what is a must see. We want to see a bit of everything. Also, what kind of clothes should I bring for October? Thank you everyone....

She will have a phone in her apartment but cell phones might be an option as well. Also, what about purchasing cell phone and plans for use in Italy. Do they have plans that allow for free calling between cell phones on the same plan?

I like to take the train to Venice from there, and then to Rome. I am wondering if I'll have enough time to drive by Italian Riviera, stop for lunch, spend the night somewhere in Tuscany ( doesn’t have to be Florence) and then take a train from there the next day. Is this feasible?

Planning a trip to Italy! We were recommended to rent a cell while there, as it would be much cheaper than bringing and using our current cell. Where would you rent a cell phone in Italy?

motive was for their choice. My sense is that economics and job opportunities were their main reasons, however, I wonder if it is worth giving up such a superior quality of life that Italy provides?

People who go to Europe can't seem to get over how attractive Italian men are. Everyone seem to have never seen something like them. What makes them that much more attractive?

what your decision to leave Italy, and move to the U.S., was based on and if you are happy with that decision and how did you choose the particular place in the U.S. that you now live in?
