Question: Good/Budget Italy Vacation Packages?
Can anyone suggest where online I can find good/budget vacation packages to Italy. I am looking to go with my girlfriend sometime in September and I would like to have airfare, hotel, and local transportation taken care of. Or at least hotel and airfare. However, I do not want to do any guided tours or group things. I would like to do things on our own. Would like to visit 3 different cities within a 10-14 day period, e.g. Florence, Rome, Venice. Most of the things I found online consist of guided or group tours. Also, if your suggesting based on a personal experience, details of your trip would be nice. Thanks.

Try Untours (www.untours.com)! They’re perfect for independent travelers who just want the basics. They set you up with airfare, then give you a rail pass or car rental, and apartment. You really get to know an area and live like an “untourist.”

I’m looking at the brochure now and they have the following regions in Italy listed:Sicily, Tuscany South, Tuscany North, Umbria, Rome and Venice. You can use them to see the area you’re in, and as a base to go touring “off the beaten path.”

Also says here that there’s something called La Notte Bianca in Rome in September when museums, shops and restaurants stay open all night! And something called Regata Storica in Venice with sensational processions along the waterways.

I’m getting jealous- think I’ll go too! Happy travels!

And whatever you do, don’t miss the gelato- to die for!!!!!!!!!!
