| Publisher Description: Experience Travel Guides, the Guides the Travel Industry trust, are unique in that they are designed to be read in the same way as a novel. They are a valuable resource for those planning to visit a destination, a source of information for those just interested in finding out more about a country, and a pleasure for those armchair travelers who just enjoy a good read.Experience Northern Italy 2019 highlights the more rewarding parts of the country so that those planning a visit can quickly and efficiently plan an itinerary. We locate and detail the best places to see and the top experiences to enjoy, and recommend accommodation options in all areas. All are based on the personal experience of the author.We capture the personality and the underlying cultural and historical significance of the cities, regions, and holiday destinations. Each is put into context by chapters on Essential Experiences in Northern Italy and the country's History.As more people travel to new destinations, guidebooks grow in importance. Hard-copy books, however, are often out of date before they are printed and users are frustrated by experiences contrary to what is described. This book has no such problem as it was thoroughly updated in December 2018 and it can be updated as often as necessary to keep it right up to date.To make it easy to read, we have not filled the book with extensive specialist information which is of interest to only a few readers. Instead we have included appropriate websites for all destinations, facilities, and activities so that with one click you can obtain all the additional information you need for the places you are particularly interested in. This means the book is very useful both before you leave home and while traveling.Please realize, however, that no guidebook can substitute for common sense. Northern Italy has a wide variety of topography and climate. The higher areas can be very cold in winter when snow covers everything and ski resorts do a roaring trade. In contrast, the Mediterranean coast can be very hot in summer. In both instances, you need appropriate clothing and you need to guard against sunburn and dehydration. There are other precautions you need to take to ensure the safety of yourself and your possessions. Be aware of your surroundings, particularly after dark, and keep valuables close to you. Be aware that pick-pocketing and bag snatching can occur. These problems are probably no worse than they are at home but they can ruin a holiday if you are a victim.We believe that every place in the world provides unique experiences which make a visit worthwhile. We encourage you to explore, meet the locals, and grab each new opportunity as it arises. Traveling is fun but do it with care and compassion. In that way, your northern Italy experience can provide lifetime memories. |
