My 2 month itinerary in Italy

Milan offers all the advantages of a large city, but it's relatively small, thus making it perfect to visit, as tourists can get to most of the city’s attractions and museums on foot. Some of the city’s most beautiful attractions include the Duomo di Milano, an impressive Opera House, a striking castle, ancient churches, and a great variety of museums and art galleries.

Menaggio

Menaggio is a beautiful town of ancient origins overlooking Lake Como. The characteristics of Menaggio make this town unique: those who simply want to relax and experience the atmosphere of the lake can walk through the narrow streets of the historic center and along the very elegant lakefront, one of the longest on Lake Como.

Varenna is a picturesque and traditional village, located on the eastern shore of Lake Como, Italy.

Top picks for food

Florence

Zio Gigi

If you want to visit an authentic family-run Italian resurgent then I would highly recommend Zio Gigi. This had the most amazing spaghetti bolognese I had on my 2-month Italy trip and the staff were so friendly and welcoming, The chef even came out and helped clear away plates and sang opera in Italian. This was just something so simple and authentic but it was one of my highlights of the trip.
