Q: Has the plumbing improved in Italy?

A: It depends on where you are going. Is there a specific part of Italy you are going to?

Actually we have an amazing property in the area of Follina that is currently on sale - one thing not to miss is wine tasting nearby http://www.luxurylink.com/fivestar/hotel-deals/Follina-Italy

Jackie Soo asked on Facebook: Hello Paolo! My question: I'm interested in going to Florence, Pisa and Rome/Vatican City. Can you please recommend some tour companies for a solo traveller who's interested in the arts, architecture, museums and culture (maybe some cars too!). Thanks!

Paolo: Jackie Soo great question - I would recommend American Express travel and tours - they can help customize a tour in addition there is a company called One Step Closer that organizes some amazing tours - when are you leaving?

Satarus Henry from Facebook: Thinking of going to Italy, my fiance' family is from there. We want to do rome, and southern italy, capri,positiano etc.. We have 10dys. How do you recommend we accomplish this???

Paolo: are you planning on renting a car? I would reccomend renting a car starting in Rome and driving south the Naples - visit the Mt. Vesuvius. From there I would say continue south to the Amalfi coast -
