Adventures of Russians in Italy.
We vacationed in Italy last summer. We went with the family for impressions and spectacles and got them in full. We personally saw that Italy is a beautiful and mysterious country. I want to tell you that the Italians do not really like to work, we have not yet studied their routine, we constantly fell into breaks. So they work from 9-00 to 12-00, then they have a break for lunch, and from 16-00 to 18-00. In order not to waste time, we took excursions around the place, went with Victor - a private trader, he has a higher service for the same money (we leave his phone number 3283731027). Of course, you can take a chance and take excursions from the operator, as we actually did at first - but I do not advise you to experiment when children are resting with you. Moreover, the operators conduct excursions on large buses, in which, even with air conditioning, it is stuffy, there are a lot of people, until you wait for everyone to gather on an excursion... anger and heat. As for the guide, it is almost inaudible and you have to almost read lips. In our opinion, such trips are exhausting, although the taste and color... And when we were on an excursion in Rome, a couple of young people got lost in the city and could not find the bus, it was tough! We waited for this couple for about an hour and a half, you can imagine - the heat is unbearable, everyone is tired, they would like to hurry to their room and shower, and then an emergency. But, thank God, everything worked out, and the guys found us! After this adventure, we decided to go on excursions exclusively in small groups of 6 to 7 people in minibuses, and in fact, that's why we went to Pisa and Florence with Victor.
We stayed at the Hotel Villa Bianca 3*. Decent hotel, close to the sea, good room, although we had a courtyard view, but it's not scary, breakfast is free, daily cleaning of the room, clean beds and multilingual staff.
Of course, it’s worth a trip, there is something to see, it’s great to relax with your family and have a great tan! We and our 7-year-old Dasha really liked it, she didn’t even want to return home, so I think that we will definitely come to Italy again...
