TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Italy is one of the destinations that never fail to attract a crowd of tourists during the summer. People flock to various tourist spots in the country. However, it's not too late to explore various destinations in Italy after the summer season.
During the quieter months between November and March, travelers have the opportunity to experience a more intimate side of Italy. The bustling streets become quieter and popular tourist spots suddenly become much more accessible.
This includes visiting iconic sites such as the canals of Venice, the art galleries of Florence, the historic landmarks of Rome, and the beautiful towns on the Amalfi Coast, such as Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Travelers are also welcome to visit the Colosseum in Rome without queuing, admire Renaissance masterpieces at the Accademia Gallery in Florence, or wander through the uncrowded ruins of Pompeii, as reported by Travel + Leisure.
Other interesting activities include exploring the leather craft center and interacting with artisans in Tuscany, wandering through vineyards in the northwest Piedmont region. Explore the Mercato Coperto in Perugia in Umbria, the central Italian region famous for its truffles and olive oil.
For accommodations, travelers can enjoy luxury hotels at much cheaper prices compared to the summer season. With fewer people around, there's a greater chance of receiving more personal and attentive service.

Likewise, savoring authentic Italian cuisine will be a much more personal experience. Hosts and chefs have more time to interact with customers. It's even possible to learn secret recipes and techniques behind local dishes.
One traveler shared their crowded experience in some of the most popular places in Italy during the summer vacation last year. Regina Simmons, 38, flew on a ten-hour flight from Las Vegas to Positano, Italy, in June and found her vacation turned chaotic.
The mother of two had hoped to see tranquil streets and beautiful views that had been shared all over social media. However, the American tourist and her family were disappointed when they arrived at the popular destination in Italy.
Regina came with her husband, Dan Simmons, 46, and their two teenage daughters. They were overwhelmed by the number of tourists. "It was just bananas... We were overwhelmed by the amount of people. We had to look for a restaurant to hide in and make a game plan," said Regina as reported by Daily Mail. The family stayed at a hotel in Sorrento and visited Positano for a day trip.
