Rome, Milan, Venice, and the Amalfi Coast may be the household names of Italy, but there are so many other amazing gems to explore. From stunning islands to storybook towns and historic cultural cities, it's no wonder Italy has soared to new tourism heights. 

Rome is undoubtedly the most popular for travelers to immerse themselves into the fascinating city's ancient culture with well-preserved sites like the famous Colosseum. With that comes unavoidable crowds unless you're willing to give other places a fair chance.
