Italy & Greece vacation


Italy & Greece vacation??
Okay, so I'm going on a school trip to Italy & Greece over March break, does anyone have any advise for anything in particular that I should bring with me (besides the obvious camera, money & clothes), or tips for travelling there. I'm so psyched to go.....I plan to have gelato everyday!! :D Thank youuu!

That's "advice" and just have fun. I was over there in late November on a cruise and fell in love with Rome. Athens was neat too, but chaotically busy. There's TONS of things so see so be prepared for visual overload. I hope you have a GREAT time!

comfortable shoes/sneakers (lots of stairs, walking up hills/ mountains), hat, glasses, fanny pack. Still cold so bring layered clothing, sweaters, jacket, etc. calculator so you can figure currency exchange - make sure you keep your receipts so you can get the VAT (19%) tax back at the airport you pay for any items you purchase in these countries. Have fun!!!

Check out my page about what to pack when traveling to Italy and about Italy's favorite snacks. Have fun!

i think u will have a great time...u may need 2 buy a book about Greece and Italy(read only the most important things-such as things about the places u r going to visit).don't forget to take some summer clothes with u because sometimes it's getting really hot in march in Greece but also sth for the rain, comfortable shoes-don't forget it because I'm sure u'll walk a lot. If u live in E.U. u don't need a passport-just an identity card. Ur camera is really important-these places are great and ur time with ur friends is sth inestimable. i live in Athens and the truth is that Athens is not the best place for vacations-only the ancient buildings are nice-some other cities or islands, like Corfu or Thassos, are better... hope u'll have a nice trip! cya-----
