Cascate del Mulino
Lake Garda
Villa Borghese
Check out the details of the Galleria Borghese book before you go. I spent too much time in line because I didn’t pre-book! Trust me, it's worth it to reserve tickets online.
Pack a picnic! The park is huge, and eating in a beautiful spot is way better than overpriced food stalls. Just make sure to bring a blanket!
I recommend visiting during weekdays if you can. Less people mean a more enjoyable experience, and you'll have plenty of space to explore.
If you want some good Instagram shots, head to the Pincian Hill around sunset. The views of Rome are breathtaking, and the light is just perfect for photos!
Sempione Park
If you can, visit around 8 am to enjoy the quiet before the crowds roll in. It’s the perfect time to take beautiful photos without people everywhere.
Check out the little petting zoo near the castle. It's not huge but totally cute and my kids loved it! It was a nice surprise.
Frasassi Caves
Castellana Caves
Cinque Terre
Be ready for some steep climbs! I thought I'd be fine, but the paths can challenge your fitness level. Hydrate and take breaks when you need to!
Lake Como
Valentino Park
Bring some snacks and drinks! The cafes are nice, but a bit pricy for just a coffee. A picnic by the river is a perfect way to relax and save some cash!
Plan to spend a good few hours there; there’s a lot to see! I underestimated the time I needed to explore everything. Seriously, give yourself at least 3 hours!
