Cosmopolitan – It sounds like an undertaking hitting three destinations in six nights, but it’s surprisingly easy to city hop in Italy, thanks to their impeccable train network. Each city has its own distinct personality–Rome boasts buildings that are over 2000 years old, Milan is a famous fashion hub, and Venice, well, Venice is magical, built on lots of small Islands connected by stunning canals–so it’s hard not to go into this trip without high expectations, but boy, do they exceed them IRL.

Smithsonian Magazine – While many travelers and foodies have enjoyed a meal at a trattoria, few know about a custom called Piatti del Buon Ricordo that was conceived in the 1960s to promote trattorias nationally and worldwide. Loosely translated, the phrase means “plates of good memories.” In participating trattorias, diners who order the signature dish can take their plate—a hand-painted ceramic collectible—home as a souvenir.

The Guardian – Rust red and burnt sienna speckle the green mountain rising from Lake Iseo. Golden autumn sunlight shimmers on the water. Monte Isola, Italy’s largest lake island, is a peak of sheer cliffs and dense forest, dotted with old fishing hamlets and hillside villages, each as pretty as the terraced villas of Lake Como and Garda, but with far fewer visitors.

The Atmospheric Italian Town You’ve Never Heard Of

The Times – Rovereto was the final destination on a whistlestop tour that had included Milan and Genoa, which meant it was the one place we had never actually heard of and that we could spend a couple of days properly exploring. The train journey from Verona helped to establish a sense of what was to come. We followed the Adige River up into the Lagarina valley, where steep mountains strung with long wisps of slope fog rose above us.
