LOCATION INFORMATION
Sicily is warm all year long, so dress in layers. It is cooler in the mornings and the evenings, so carry a warmer wrap.
There is wonderful shopping in Sicily & in Tuscany. So do not overpack, make room for the wonderful dresses & shoes that you will find.
Take a smaller suitcase, so everyone's suitcase will fit into the van, or on the train. You have to carry your own luggage on the train.
Be prepared to walk, bring comfortable walking shoes. I walk a minimum of 10,000 to 15,000 steps a day and that is the best way to see the cities.
Delight in wearing your summer dresses. Bring your cute clothes.
Do not bring too much products. Italy has wonderful products that are cheaper than you can get in the US.
