Discover Details:
Pantheon Museum
If you're a fan of photography, don't forget to bring your camera. The light coming through the oculus is just breathtaking! Just watch out for the crowds around that spot, it's easy to get bumped when you least expect it.
I suggest keeping an eye on any temporary exhibits or events that might be happening during your visit. I found a really interesting photography exhibit when I was there, which made the trip even better!
My advice is to grab a quick coffee or snack at one of the nearby cafes before entering. The museum itself doesn’t have much in terms of food options, so plan ahead!
The Uffizi Galleries
My advice is to visit during the off-peak hours, like right when they open at 8:15 AM. You’ll have a better chance of enjoying the art without huge crowds.
National Museum of Castel Sant'Angelo
Castello Sforzesco
Take a stroll in the Sempione Park right next to the castle. It's a beautiful place to relax and it’s free – perfect for a break after exploring!
The Triennale di Milano
I found it helpful to download the Triennale app for maps and info—it saved me time wandering around looking for exhibits!
I suggest checking out the current exhibitions online before you go. Some displays change often, and you might miss something if you don’t plan ahead.
Don't skip the café! It's a great spot for a coffee break, and the views are beautiful. Perfect for some Instagram-worthy shots!
Egyptian Museum
My advice is to grab the audio guide. It’s super informative and helped me understand the context behind the artifacts much better. Totally worth the small extra fee!
Gallery of the Academy of Florence
If you can, try visiting on a weekday morning right when it opens at 8:15 AM. It’s way less crowded, and you’ll get a nice view of David without the horde of tourists.
Take your time to enjoy the gallery. The atmosphere is peaceful, so sitting on a bench to soak it all in is totally worth it, especially after rushing through other busy spots.
Palazzo Pitti
My advice is to focus your visit on the Palatine Gallery. The art there is stunning, but the rooms can feel overwhelming, so pick a few favorites and enjoy them!
Doge's Palace
National Archaeological Museum of Naples
If you can, visit on a Sunday as it’s free! Just be prepared for more crowds, but you can save a good amount of cash.
Grab a map when you enter. I suggest highlighting the must-see pieces, so you don’t miss anything important. It really helped me stay organized.
I think bringing a mobile charger is a good idea. You’ll probably want to snap a ton of photos and my phone died halfway through!
