- Italy ↗Italy is in the Schengen area. Check the entry rules for your passport on official sources; the EU's Entry/Exit System registers non-EU visitors at the first Schengen border, and further pre-travel authorisation rules are being introduced.
- Italy ↗Historic centres are ZTL limited-traffic zones: cameras fine any unauthorised car that enters, often months later through the hire company. Park outside and walk in.
- Italy ↗Regional train tickets bought on paper must be validated in the machine on the platform before boarding; digital tickets carry a time and need no stamping.
- Italy ↗Venice charges day-visitors an access fee on selected peak days; check the city's official site if you are not sleeping there.
- Rome ↗The Colosseum, the Vatican Museums and the Borghese Gallery sell timed slots that run out days ahead in season: book on the official sites before you fix the day plan.
- Rome ↗Sampietrini cobbles and steep hotel stairs wreck large suitcases: bags go from the car or taxi to the door, never on a walk.
