Travel tips
What to know before you go
Straight from our notes on Italy: costs, getting around, where to stay and what to skip.
Per day. Prices from our trips; check current rates before you book.
transportation
Most of the big European hubs will have relatively inexpensive flights to places not as touristy. Head to those spots first so you can have better transportation options to the smaller destinations.
when to visit
Wildflowers in early April and rising temperatures through to the end of June are a real draw. From October, the summer heat eases off, the grape harvest is in full swing, and the cities are quieter for sightseeing.
safety
where to stay
Airbnb is also a great way to find accommodation. These can get pretty pricey though if you're looking to stay in city centers.

what to pack
The weather in Europe is so diverse. Bathing suits in Croatia, shorts and t-shirts in Italy, and then a jacket for the Alps of Switzerland. While a variety of clothing is needed, you'll want to pack light to make traveling from place to place easier. Compression cubes are a great way to not only save space but also to stay organized while on the road. Check them out at trippedtravelgear.com!
