“I’ve been traveling in Italy for over 20 years and seldom do I find a book as useful and eye-opening as Italy: Instructions for Use.

–Martha Bakerjahn., About.com’s Go Italy

There’s a reason they call it “independent travel:” you’ll be responsible for everything you do once you arrive in Italy. And while it’s certainly not a desert, it is in fact “foreign,” and to get the most you’ll want to be as comfortable as possible in your new surroundings. You could follow an a-b-c outline in that hefty guidebook, but for meandering outside the lines, the Instructions will be just the ticket. You’ll find detailed info on hours and eating, shipping and shopping, driving and training, making phone calls – whether from a cell or a pay phone – and much, much more. It’s the ultimate in insider info.
