Visiting Italy

[freeon]

I'm going to Italy in the fall and was wondering if anybody could give me suggestions of what to visit. We will be staying in Tuscani. I would like to go visit the Ferrari plant if that's even possible. Would also like to rent a Ferrari or any exotic car so if anyone knows a good place for this let me know. Also might travel down to Monte Carlo for a few days.

Read Rick Steve's guide to Italy. It cuts to the chase of what should be seen, and what can be skipped. It offers solid advice on tour companies, lodging, food and tourist traps. I used the book in Rome, Florence, Naples and the Amalfi coast. It pointed out little-known treasures, and helped me negotiate those cities and areas smartly. It's a precise, yet interesting read. Best travel book (and series) I've seen. In case you're interested in photos I shot on our trip, see http://www.onsiteimages.biz/Travel/Italy
