I don't want to interfere with the other Italy thread. We are also headed to Italy next month, but have opted to do a guided tour. We will have some down time at each stop and I have a few questions regarding places to eat. We are provided with breakfast every morning and four organized dinners. On our own for lunch and 7 dinners.
In Rome, we will be staying at the Romanico Palace on Via Boncompagne. If anyone has any ideas as to where we can get a simple and quick bite to eat, I'd appreciate any input. We will have a full day on our own before meeting up with the tour.
We will be spending two nights in Lucca, but outside of the walled in section. According to trip advisor, there are a number of informal places to dine....too many for me to make a selection. Any ideas here? We can rent bikes from our hotel and they claim there are bike paths to take into the walled area. Anyone ever try this? I hear the drivers in Italy are pretty crazy...is it a danger to ride a bike?
Our second day in Lucca, we will be taken to La Spezia and the Cinque Terre....and boat ride and train ride back to La Spezia are on the agenda, but no mention on lunch. I scoped out a few places in LaSpezia.....any ideas? Maybe some places in Cinque Terre?
Two nights in Florence close to Duomo and Palazzo Pitti. No dinner either of these nights. We will be at the Grand Hotel Mediterraneo. Any easy to get to places for dinner?
Then two nights in Venice. Daytime is filled with organized tours. Dinner is provided one night.
Then on to Ravenna and Assisi. Need to find a place for lunch.
Then back to Rome.
Looking forward to this trip, and being able to kind of plot out our trip for next time, which we will do on our own.
Thanks in advance for any tips and/or advice.
