Venice having more tourists than Rome is a shocker for me.

Interesting because even if you go to like Puglia region, which isn’t theoretically touristy, it’s full of visitors.

This should be crossposted to r/Venezia, so people understand why Venetians hate tourists.

Sicily could’ve been such a tourist location but they are fucking up for centuries on that island.

Going to Sicily in September but Sicily is not Italy/s

I’ve been to Vico Del Gargano, Marina Serra, Molinara and then Badalucco (many times) out in pretty remote areas. But I also hate crowds after 25 years in various larger cities.

What makes Alto Adige so special? The Alps?

Now I know where to go for vacation in Italy to avoid crowds and enjoy in peace and food and wine.

This a stupid droid mentality: If anyone travels to Italy generally are Rome, Venice, Florence. But what about Puglia, Calabria , Sardinia or Sicily?
If I spend holiday in summer in Italy, I never go to hyped destinations and never go to city tours .In Rome the summer is terrible with 40 degrees. I rather go to Ladispoli/Anzio/Nettuno and spending beach holiday.
Puglia is the same: travelling to Bari near Bari Centrale but visting Monopoli, Barletta, Trani.
I am not saying no one should travel to Rome. But in summer it is just not practical. Even Romans are out of city especially around Ferragosto.

Italy is one of the countries with the most diversified tourist locations…imagine how France or Spain look like then, if Italy is this concentrated.
As an Italian, I am a bit surprised about South Italy being so little touristy…but I also get why it isn’t. The infrastructures are much worse, and the cities are not that pretty (with a few exceptions).

I need an interactive version so I can choose my next holiday 🙂

Sicily is one of the best places I’ve been in the world, the range of culture in the history is fascinating and the people were lovely. The major tourist spots are just over crowded and expensive.

Probably the same in most countries.

In other countries, I believe it is no more than 2%.

I’m proud to be one of those who visit Molise lol.

Well obviously.
Public transport is abysmal. High speed trains really only run between Rome, Naples, Milan, Venezia and Turín, and that’s when something doesn’t break down.
Private options are limited.
Not all tourists are brave enough to rent a car and drive in a country that’s notorious for its aggressive drivers. And renting a car costs way too much.
Therefore there is no real incentive to visit other parts of this gloriously beautiful country.

So basically tourists really like the Dolomites and Rome.
Sardinia is so underrated, best sea I’ve ever seen in the world, and I’ve been to every continent.

This is not just Italian problem. This is true for any country. Also, if you zoom in on Rome, the picture will be pretty much the same 75% of tourist never see anything other than Coliseum and Vatican.

Sardinia has probably the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been to. Wonderful cuisine and some great little cities as well. Throughly enjoyed my time there. Aiming to go to Sicily next.

I’m sure Venice and Rome are great, but Milan is quite underrated if you ask me, very nice city

It’s like everyone stops at Naples and doesn’t go any further south on the mainland.
Even finding general information about Reggio Calabria online is more challenging.

Summer is not bearable to Europeans. Its better to be cold & quality places.

Does this included domestic tourism? I feel the Adriatic coast around Rimini should be much more red with all the domestic tourism
