What About Driving Yourself?

Self-driving is possible but not ideal for luxury trips focused on relaxation.

ZTL zones in cities (Rome, Florence) issue fines for unauthorized entry; parking is tight along the Amalfi Coast and in hill towns.

If you do drive, choose smaller vehicles for medieval streets and valet options at hotels. For wine regions, a driver is strongly recommended to enjoy tastings without restriction.
