The See Italy family and I love creating authentic experiences for your travelers. We invite them inside an Italy that tourists rarely see. Whenever sending travelers to Italy, we like to educate them first about the key differences between the U.S. and Italy. This is why we include our custom-designed travel tips with all travel documents.
Not only do these documents excite your travelers about the places they’ll soon see, they save you the hassle of explaining things like… why stores in Italy close between 12:30PM and 3PM.
In creating our special travel tips, we asked our community of travel agents: What frustrated your travelers when in Italy? In most cases, their frustrations were encounters with a country that run on different rules from the U.S. Things like….
· Not ordering cappuccino after 11AM
· Bread & pasta aren’t served at the same time
· Needing to ask waiters for the check in restaurants
· There’s no such thing as “Italian dressing” or “chicken parm.”
When travelers know these differences upfront, they don’t feel frustrated when in Italy. In fact, they’re often intrigued to find out that the Italy they envisioned and the real Italy are altogether different places. They get excited – not irritated – by the cultural differences.
We’ve distilled down the questions Italy-bound travelers are sure to ask you. And then we give you the answers! See Italy does this so you can help travelers feel more at home in Italy.
