25 Cose da Fare in Italia Almeno Una Volta nella Vita

    Over the past four years, since launching our YouTube channel,
    we’ve been fortunate enough to explore Italy like never before. There are so many experiences that have remained in our hearts, and today we want to share our favorites with you. You know how much I love lists! I make bullet points for everything; they help me organize things so much, and I really enjoy them.
    I’m sure some of you will understand. So, this video is a list you can use to inspire you, adding new experiences to your Italian bucket list! Of course, as always, we’d love to hear your suggestions in the comments, so we can continue to grow our bucket list even further. But enough of this intro. Let’s get started. Enjoy! Italy has so many wonderful mountains and incredible, scenic valleys, but standing before Mont Blanc was a truly unique experience. With the Skyway departing from Courmayeur,
    we ascended above 3,000 meters for the first time. Punta Helbronner, the cable car’s arrival point, is located directly opposite the Mont Blanc massif,
    and from its circular terrace, the view of the most important peaks of the Alps is unforgettable. We were there in January, and being surrounded by deep,
    soft snow was beautiful. Make sure to stop at the Pavillon for a midday break. The view from here is guaranteed, too… And to stay on the winter, or rather Christmas,
    theme, among the various markets we visited, one is simply magical for its atmosphere: the one in Vipiteno. It’s small and cozy in the town’s central square, but it’s everything that makes it feel like a fairytale. The colorful houses, the music coming from the bell tower, the natural setting surrounding the village. If you’re lucky enough to see snow, we’re sure you’ll be captivated by the Christmas magic that reigns supreme here during this special time of year. As for culinary experiences, don’t expect us
    to recommend Michelin-starred restaurants. There’s one thing you absolutely must try, you can’t help but be honest. When you pass through Liguria, you absolutely must try focaccia genovese. It’s a simple dish, and the Ligurians watching us now may not understand, but for us, it’s one of the best things in the world. You can take it with you on a hike for lunch or as a snack while cycling along the western cycle path. But if you want to try it like a true Ligurian,
    you have to dip it in your cappuccino for breakfast. Incredible. Try it to believe it. We’re moving on to Abruzzo. In our opinion,
    it’s one of the most underrated regions in Italy. There’s so much to discover, from its villages to its natural beauty. Along the coast, you might come across trabocchi, ancient structures built on stilts that were once used for fishing and are now often converted into restaurants.
    The experience we’d like to recommend is dining on a trabocco, with a table overlooking the sea and the sound of the waves in the background. The freshest seafood menu is usually a fixed price. However, there are so many courses that we couldn’t even get to the main course. A must-do
    on your to-do list is a tour of Sicily’s Baroque cities. Noto, Modica, Ragusa, Ibla, Shicli, and the island of Ortigia, Syracuse, are enchanting places. Historic centers with their homogeneous warm colors, where Sicilian Baroque is at its most beautiful. The buildings seem to glow on their own when the sun’s rays strike them. Impressive churches, ornate and imaginative balconies—in short, a continuous masterpiece of art and urban planning nestled
    between hills and valleys or overlooking the sea. And we move from one famous area to another lesser-visited one. Many of you will know by now: we’re from Pavia. In our Oltrepò, there are vineyards as far as the eye can see, and many wineries organize tastings of their wines. When you are here it might be nice to take part in a picnic or a dinner in the vineyard, an opportunity to taste the DOC wines at the source, Meeting their creators and observing their production process up close. Also in Lombardy, but in the province of Sondrio,
    specifically in Val Tartano, is the Ponte nel cielo (Bridge in the Sky), a 234-meter-long Tibetan bridge suspended in mid-air connecting the two sides of a valley. On clear days, the view is breathtaking, stretching as far as Lake Como. If you’re not near Campo Tartano, try searching in your region. In recent years, several suspension bridges
    have been built, some much longer than this one. Leading the way, for example, is the 586-meter-long Castel Saraceno bridge in Basilicata. What if these are modern structures you can walk on? In Italy, we can admire human remains dating back to 1700-1100 BC: the Nuraghe. These megalithic towers, emblematic of the
    Nuragic civilization, are mysterious and fascinating. Standing before something so complex, built by peoples who lived millennia ago, is awe-inspiring. We’ve only been to Sardinia once, but we were blown away by its history and culture, as well as its breathtaking landscapes and seas of a color never seen before. The next experience may seem trivial, but until we were there a few years ago, we didn’t believe it either! Eating pizza in Naples has a completely different flavor, we’ve said it! We don’t know the secret, but it’s completely different from the rest of Italy. And Paolo, who is a pizza expert, can confirm it. Even I, who unlike him, am not a huge fan of our most famous dish abroad, found it incredible. Do you know what else we find incredible?
    Autumn, our absolute favorite season. And being in the mountains immersed in the colors of the landscape at this time of year is something to be experienced. In Preda Rossa, in Valmasino, autumn is magical. The larches turn yellow, you can cross the water-covered plain on footbridges, and the silence that surrounds you puts you at peace with the world. It’s an extraordinary place, perfect for a hike and recharging your batteries in the shadow
    of glaciers and high snow-capped peaks. Nature always has so much to offer us, but human ingenuity can also sometimes leave us speechless. Matera is a prime example. Sleeping in the Sassi, in ancient caves carved into the rock, is unique. It’s among the oldest cities in the world,
    and experiencing this reality for a few days is truly wonderful. The houses change appearance and color as the hours pass. If you sleep here, leave your room at dawn. You’ll find yourself faced with one of the most beautiful free spectacles in the world. Since we’re talking architecture, the Duchy of the Castles of Parma, Piacenza,
    and Pontremoli is an area you absolutely must visit. Thirty-eight castles are located in a relatively small area and some of them are even available for stays. You can get married or take part in historical reenactments— in short, all kinds of experiences. And castles always have their own charm, with tales of ghosts, knights, and impossible love.
    Which is the most beautiful place you’ve ever visited? It’s really hard for us to choose. While we’re thinking about it, how about liking the video or subscribing to the channel if you haven’t already? Thank you so much. And to celebrate your subscription to the channel,
    what better way to celebrate than with a delicious spritz, perhaps in Piazza delle Erbe in Padua? After all, the famous cocktail was invented in Veneto in the early 1800s. Trying it in one of Italy’s most beautiful dining rooms with a few cicchetti on the side is the perfect way to toast together. Throughout our peninsula, there are several places that can only be reached on foot via more or less rugged paths. Savogno is one of these, and we find taking
    the time to discover such remote places wonderful. The 2,886 steps that lead to the village are truly a long climb, but the satisfaction once you reach your destination is priceless. The silence, the houses that retain their ancient
    appearance, and the encounters you can have These places are certainly unforgettable experiences. Another example might be Otro or Dasile. Our country boasts an unparalleled variety of landscapes, and among the many beauties we can find, there are also numerous
    caves and caverns, some more famous than others We love this environment. Exploring these natural cavities, some millions of years old, is surreal. If you haven’t had the chance yet, we recommend visiting them. You’ll surely have at least one near your home. Among our favorites are Bossea in Piedmont, the Grotta del Vento in Tuscany, or Toirano in Liguria. For us, there’s nothing more special than trying
    something you’ve never done before. The thrill of a new experience is always immense. Two years ago, we slept in a mountain refuge for the first time. The things we remember most fondly are the
    company of the other guests, the well-earned meal after the hike, which always tastes like the best
    meal in the world, and the many small, simple moments that become precious at the top of the mountains. Sunrises and sunsets are inexplicable. We know that not everyone can reach certain high points, but we hope you find peaceful places like the Rosalba refuge and spend at least one day just for yourself. Often, we tend to visit only the main, most famous cities in Italy, but there are countless smaller towns that are overlooked by most tourists , and which we love to recommend. One of these is Urbino, the heart of the Renaissance. Its historic center was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998. One of history’s greatest painters, Raphael, was born here, and the city preserves his memory everywhere. Steep alleys, panoramic terraces offering breathtaking views, the Ducal Palace in all its beauty, and a cultural atmosphere we loved. These are just a few of the reasons we loved Urbino. Choose to visit the most underrated cities; you won’t regret it… What we don’t do often enough are train journeys. We’d love to travel more like this. There’s an iconic route, considered one of the most scenic in the world, starting from Tirano in Lombardy. We’re talking about the Bernina Express, and if you’ve never been, it should be on your bucket list. We were fortunate enough to take this route in opposite seasons. They’re two very different experiences, but equally unforgettable. While in summer you can hike and trek through the Swiss forests, in winter the landscape becomes a fairytale. Crossing bridges and viaducts, while a breathtaking mountain panorama unfolds outside
    the window—a truly unforgettable experience. The Amalfi Coast needs no introduction, one of the most globally recognized areas of Italy. Hiking the Path of the Gods, which connects Agerola
    to Positano, is an alternative way to discover the area. This well-trodden and never-too-difficult trail offers breathtaking views of the coast and the villages built vertically overlooking the sea. We’ve included many of our favorite things in this list: art, relaxing nature, and hiking. Besides my obsession with bookstores, there’s another place we try to visit as often as possible: the theater. The Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza is one of the
    most beautiful and unique in our country. A masterpiece by Andrea Palladio, it was the first permanent,
    covered, and permanent theater of the modern age. The stage set, made of wood and stucco, is impressive. The streets seem to stretch on forever, and the sky above
    the vaulted ceiling recreates the feeling of being outdoors. It’s still used today for theater and ballet performances. The daily light and sound show is not to be missed. Earlier, we talked about Urbino and other less-visited
    cities compared to the classic Rome. Florence, Naples, Milan, and Venice. This list couldn’t leave out a mention of Lucca for its Comics and Games. Just kidding, even though it’s
    a remarkable event, Lucca is beautiful to experience when there are few people around, perhaps in spring, and to cycle along its walls. The historic center, in fact, is entirely surrounded by this Renaissance fortification, which has now been transformed into a beautiful urban park where you can stroll, run, or simply relax in the shade of the trees. It’s a splendid city of art, but its walls, among the best preserved in Europe, make it a unique and fascinating place. How many times have we said the word “experience”
    in this video? Have you counted? Now I’m about to add another. To have this particular experience, people don’t usually come to Italy, but to Northern Europe, perhaps to Lapland or Canada, but our country always surprises us with unusual things. Last year, in fact, on the Presena Glacier we slept in an igloo— a real igloo with an internal temperature of
    4°C and an external temperature of around -15°C. It was quite surreal to sleep on a bed of ice with a dome of snow pressed above us. Imagine, it was all hand-built by an artist. Would you sleep there? Changing the scene completely, let’s now
    talk about a very serious aspect of travel: food! Few cuisines in the world can compare to ours in terms of variety, traditions, and flavors. A truly Italian trip is impossible without discovering its typical dishes, so different from region to region. So our advice is this: include the specialties of the place you’re visiting as an integral part of your trip. Go to small trattorias, osterias, and simple, family-run establishments. It may not be haute gourmet cuisine, but we assure you it will immerse you completely in the authentic
    atmosphere of the place you’re visiting. What we’re about to tell you is something we tried, but it didn’t quite go as we imagined. In April, on Mount Etna, we weren’t expecting a blizzard of snow and ice. The black volcanic earth, contrasted with the pure white, was surreal. We so wanted to reach the summit craters, but the weather didn’t allow it . We absolutely must return to try and fulfill this dream. So we’re at the last mini-chapter of the video. We move to a region that boasts some of the most beautiful villages on the peninsula: Umbria. Here, the hills are a mosaic of olive trees and
    vineyards, and between one curve and another, small medieval towns emerge
    that seem to have stepped out of a history book. Strolling through their cobblestone streets
    means slowing down, listening to the silence, breathing in an ancient yet vibrant air. These aren’t places built for tourists; they are authentic communities where every square and every corner speaks of centuries of tradition. Visiting Umbrian villages isn’t just seeing a new place, but connecting with the most intimate soul of Italy. Thank you for making it to the end of the video once again. This Friday, a slightly different story than usual, but we still hope we’ve kept you company. We’re curious to know which of these experiences
    you’ve already had or which inspire you the most. Of course, we’re also looking forward to your tips
    and suggestions in the comments, as always. Over the next three months, we’ll be letting you know:
    we’ll be embarking on a whirlwind of travel in Italy and abroad that will take us on the road quite a bit. If you’d like to follow our adventures live, find the links to our Instagram profile and Telegram channel in the description. On the right, you’ll find a video from last year that we think you might enjoy, this time not about Italy, but about the rest of the world. Thanks again for your support, see you in two Fridays. Hugs. Bye, bye!

    1. Anche io da buona aspergirl amo l'ordine e fare le liste! Mi ritrovo molto nel vostro mood tranquillo e alla ricerca di posti fuori dal caos! Complimenti anche per l'ottimo gusto delle inquadrature. Grazie❤

    2. Cari Sara e Paolo. Amo l'Italia, grazie per avermi accompagnato in questo splendido Paese. Saluti dalla Slovacchia.❤🙋‍♀️🌞🍀

    3. Ho avuto la possibilità di vivere in 9 regioni diverse a motivo del lavoro di mio padre. Ora sono adulto e posso dire di avere avuto la fortuna di apprezzare le infinite bellezze che il nostro Paese offre. In 52 anni non ho ancora terminato di apprezzarlo. Oggi faccio mototurismo con mia moglie perché quel seme gettato dalla mia famiglia è diventato la passione più grande! Vi seguo sempre con interesse.

    4. Complimenti per i video, sono meravigliosi come la vostra passione e dolcezza nel raccontarli. Ma in Calabria? Mai stati? Sila, Pollino, Aspromonte, due mari, laghi c'è tanta roba che potrebbe entusiasmarvi….ciaoo

    5. Questa estate ho fatto il giro della Valle d'Aosta in moto, tra paesini, laghi , cascate, la cosa che mi ha davvero emozionato e commosso è stato il Monte Bianco. Un paesaggio che lascia senza fiato ❤

    6. Ciao, grazie per il video! Sicuramente vi consiglio le grotte di Frasassi nelle Marche sono al primi posti tra le grotte più belle del mondo. Si possono fare giri turistici con la guida oppure giri un pochino più avventurosi in poche persone, sempre con le guide locali. Veramente molto belle. E perché no, un bel rafting (con guida è per tutti, sul fiume delle cascate delle marmore in Umbria… divertente!

    7. Questa estate ho dormito in un bivacco e ho visto il sorgere del sole dalla cima Nana: bellissimo e bellissimo anche l'incontro con caprioli e marmotte. Due anni fa mi è piaciuto molto il giro in bicicletta del delta del Po

    8. Per i viaggi in treno vi consiglio la Transiberiana d'Italia,magari durante i mercatini di Natale (se avete fortuna trovate tutto innevato);
      oppure potete frammezzare il viaggio con delle escursioni nel Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo.
