This Italy travel video we are the question is Italy overrated or is it one of the best countries in the world? We want to show you the truth about Italy and how easy it is to experience real Italy without tourists. The Italian food is of course incredible but what about the other parts? This video will show you some of the must-do things in Italy. It gives alternatives to the touristy Cinque Terre in the form of Tellaro and Tivenga. Also we try making Italian pizza in a woodfire oven and visit a vineyard, filling up our wine from a petrol pump at Cantina Lunae.
We also got to stay in an incredible villa in the hills thanks to our subscriber. Check out his place below.

No, Italy is absolutely not overrated. I have been going there since I was 14.
Italy is heaven on earth.
Being French, I have learnt Italian rather easily and I plan to retire there, I have just bought an apartment in Umbria. When I am in Italy, I feel like being among my cousins.
Brava Leonora😊
Thank you and welcome into our family❤️
@@areswalker5647 thank you honey for being so welcoming !
And french are our cousins, always welcome in italy❤️
Eléonore Le Monnier I love France, our countries are brothers,
Italy is definitely underrated.
I have visited Sicily multiple times and fallen in love with it.
Me and my wife have bought a house in a small town in north western Sicily, which allows us to escape from long and dark Scandinavian winters.
Welcome in Italy guys!! Incredible to say but covid had the positive effect to push me travel more my country and discover amazing places so I've been in south Italy for the first time in 30 years! Amalfi Coast and especially Positano were simply delightful!!
@@petera618 "emigrated from Sicily".
Thanks. I appreciate all this kindness toward my country.
I m sorry overrated she is - - better countries elsewhere Spain for example
@@rob5197 why?
Nothing compares to Italy. No matter which place I visit in the world, it's always fantastic but returning to Italy the year after blows me away each and every time.
Thank you so much!🥺
Lots of love from Italy🇮🇹
💜 I am Italian and lived in the US for 2 years, loved it but home is home and I feel lucky to have the chance to live here. By the way, if you’ve never visited Langhe, in Piemonte checkout our CZcams channel, so you will get the chance to virtually tour our beautiful countryside! :)
Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹 🍷
So true. It's the world jewel
Where to do you recommend? I can’t decide where to visit.
@@mialia8120 That's the point. You can't. Throw a dart at the map of Italy and go
Italy is my favorite country in the world, I've explored all of it on road trips all over from North to South. So many incredible hidden gems that nobody knows about. It has everything, in my opinion, heaven on earth, high quality food, medieval villages, historic cities, amazing hidden beaches, the riviera, the Dolomites, fashion, art, cars, traditions, etc... it's on another level than the rest of the world.
Likewise...been to just about all regions. Region to region it’s like going to different countries, the people, the food, the customs. Northern Alpine regions, The Dolomites are stunning. Ciao.
Italy is huge and so varied that I cannot imagine there is anyone who would not like anywhere in the whole of Italy.
I'm Italian and I'm 44yo, it's impossible to understand how much beautiful place we have in our country out of the tourist circle because even we don't know. I spent last holiday in Marinella di Selinunte in sicily for the first time, it is a small fishermen town with their personal huge Greek acropolis 😅
I travelled Italy last September. It was the highlight of my life. One of my favorite places was Orvieto. One day, I want to go back and spend a few months getting to live like Italians do. They are very sweet, warm and welcoming people.
......and you look cute!
@@doriko75 Thank you Luca!
And we had the highlights of our lives when we had you here! Come back soon. Ciao
@@harley24787 i was there 1 month ago; the day after in "la scarzuola" in Montegabbione(TR). You'd go there also. Civitacastellana(VT)is closed and so on........anyway also my city is wonderful, especially in Summer: ANCONA. Where are you from? Nice to meet you.
@@doriko75 Nice to meet you as well Luca. I looked at the places you mentioned in your post and they are spectacular. I wish i could’ve traveled to some of the smaller towns and villages and toured more of the countryside. Ancona looks beautiful too. I loved the Adriatic Sea. The color was one i had never seen before. I live in Denver, Colorado USA. I’m very jealous that you are surrounded by so much beauty.
I guess in most of the mafia movies Italians are depressed, because they live in the US instead of Italy. 😁
I thought the exact same thing, when he talked about those movies :-)
The Sopranos are NOT Italian, but they are American.
They’re not depressed, they’re looking for money HAhaha why do you think that a lot of Italians escape from Italy? There’s no job (I’m Italian)
@@carolinamilanesio6057 Most Americans in the USA with European ethnicity come from Ireland, Germany, England, Scotland, and more before Italy.
@@racht.bremen3125 I know but we’re talking about Italians. They don’t just immigrate in the Usa, also in the north of Europe, England, Ireland, Germany...
Italy is the greatest country in the world.
Greetings from a german with many wonderful italian friends. I hope that I can move to Italy someday and can adept and serve the society. But I have to improve my language skills 😅
Germany is amazing too, with lovely castles and villages!
You are most welcome!
We'll be happy for your visit
@@antoniodespuches3995 tru dat.
thanks, even germany is beautiful though
Italy is amazing. It is true. The world is made up of two people: People who love Italy and the other is people who are jealous of Italy.
@Axel Stabursvik Yes, of course it is opinion I agree, but almost fact. Yes, my favorite part of Italy is not Rome, so you need to see more for sure.
It’s ENVY, not Jealousy. Improve your english
@@zagrebnesh1875 many italian mistake the two wolrds giving jalousy the same mening of envy .
@@zagrebnesh1875 it’s jealousy
Italy is the most beautiful country I've ever visited. I've been to Asia, America, Europe. Nothing compares to the beauty of Italy. It just feels so authentic and untouched. Completely the opposite of USA. The culture and traditions are incredible, everything gets produced locally and sold on local markets. Everything is so pure and high quality, its just real! Not artificial. The nature, ocean, mountains, villages and cities. You have everything in Italy.
❤️❤️
@M Z infatti tutti i neolaureati e tra un po’ io compreso fanno tutti bye bye
Except for jobs!
Are you a true traveller then if you can’t see the beauty in other countries? Every country has beautiful aspects to it, some more than others.
Ciao Lisa, you are right! I am Italian, loved in the US for 2 years and became my second home but casa is vada and I feel lucky to have the chance to live here. By the way, if you’ve never visited Langhe in Piedmont, go check my CZcams channel so you’ll get to virtually tour our beautiful countryside!
Italy is only overrated on the treasuries market ;) As a country, its not possible, its by far the most beautiful country in the world, and a lifetime isnt enough to discover all of its treausres.
You are so right! We live in Italy and each time we travel around the region we feel so lucky! There are many “hidden beautiful spots”. If you’ve never been in the Langhe area in Piedmont go check our brand new channel, you will get to virtually tour our beautiful countryside! Ciao from Alba!🇮🇹🍷
I am french and I consider Italy is the only country on the world that is (almost) as beautiful as France and this said by a French means everything!! :D please understand I am being ironical!!!
Haha I love this. Wow, a French person with a sense of humour... Only joking 😘😜
As Italian I consider France the only country on the world that is (almost) as beautiful as Italy ^_^
The only country comparable to Italy is France and a lot of French culture comes from pre-Italian states like Genoa, Tuscany, and more. Even Napoleon, had Corsican Italian roots.
Italy, France and Spain have a lot in common then the other countries
@@ipertaro1990 yes i consider France Spain italy and Portugal brother latin countries of the same family and like in all families we also like to tease and argue like in anglophone countries
Italy is amazing ! Love Naples and and the whole Amalfi, sorrento coast , capri , Pompei, i will come again soon. Love from France 🇮🇹❤️🇨🇵
I actually hate France but if France does not hate us why would we hate u? Ok
@@samuthemapper600 because you're stupid ahah you hate France maybe for football. Italian and French are very good friends and very similar
@@Alex-yy4wq As an Italian, je suis totalement d'accord avec vous
Wooow love France from Italy toooo
Don’t listen to them, 90% of italians hate france, but not for the country but for the people
I live in Austria, half an hour to the Italian border. No place compares to Italia. The feeling, the people, the food, the autogrill. ;) Ti amo, Italia.
Yes Venice, Rome can be overcrowded, but just go there when other people don't. Rome in autumn is fantastic, as is Venice in Winter time, if it is not flooded with water.
Oh thank you❤️❤️
...and you pay a lot less in hotels
Autogrill, really? Italians hate Autogrill so much 😂😂
@@thetemptedvida8650 they are a lot turistic and prices are higher especially the market inside (anyway they are useful for the gift or the souvenir at the last time you forgot to buy before), but we absolutely need them for a coffe-break and coffe in autogrill is good, and also the toilet is important and they are constantely and continuesly cleaned, it is anyway a RITUAL to stop in them during a travel along italy
@@thetemptedvida8650 I don't fancy the shop, but I like a clean toilet and love the café plus cornetto. Austrians love Autogrill.
The great thing about living in Europe is that you have many amazing and different countries available within short trips, each varied so much in culture and sites: Italy, Germany, Spain, Greece, France, etc... I love Italy and love the others, too. Why would somebody not? Greetings from Germany :-)
ciao dall'Italia ; vivere in Europa e' una fortuna , per la sua storia e la sua arte ovunque vai in Europa , respiri civilta' e fascino ; tutti i Paesi Europei che ho visitato sono un patrimonio unico al mondo
And also all Scandinavian countries wich are also very nice - Love for Europe
What the Americans call "Pepperoni" are in reality what in Italy we call "salamino piccante" Probably the guy at the supermarket undestood Peperoni, which translates Bell Peppers.
not true... totally different taste and ingredients
@@leliodalf Nono, it’s true hahaha
Mmm salamin riquisimo
In Germany, Pepperoni are spicy pickled green chili peppers.
@@leliodalf
i’m italian and i can assure you that is true
I totally agree! It seems that whenever someone calls Italy "overrated," they are reducing Italy to parts of Rome/Venice/Florence
True! Italy is not only big cities, personally I think that the best spots here are the small towns, the ones that are still “secrets”. By the way, if you want to see some authenticity, go check out channel, you will get to virtually tour our beautiful countryside in the Langhe area!
Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷
I was in Italy last year in September. My heritage hails from the southern part of the country in Napoli. I have friends I've known in Bologna for about 16 years, and they couldn't wait for me to come. Our first stop was Rome which was amazing, followed by the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, taking a boat to the island of Capri, then putting the anchor down and swimming in the ocean. Then up to Venice, and finally Bologna. While in Venice, I went where the locals were, we ate at Al Timon there and it was delicious. When I got to Bologna, my friend there brought us to a place to eat, and another friend there showed up even though his son was sick, he wanted to be able to see me.
The next day my friend brought me to the Ferrari museum which I loved and than took me out to eat. It helps knowing people there as they can help guide you and bring you to the best spots. I laugh when people say the food wasn't good because they got suckered into a place advertising a tourist menu, rather than going to the places where the locals go. Or the guys that are yelling at you to come check out the place. A place with great food will speak for itself, not a guy yelling at you to come in.
Italy is the only country I've ever been to and I don't really need to go anywhere else. I feel like it's my second home there, as there is where the family began before they came to the United States. People with Italian heritage should connect with their roots. Trust me, I cried when flying out of Rome back home to New York. A part of my heart was left there and there is just so much to see but not enough time. I will be going back though because for me, I don't think anything else as a package can compete with Italia. Food, language, wine, cars, history, architecture, the people, the scenery and the mere fact that Italia is basically an open art museum. You'll find tons of stuff that you couldn't find in other countries. Can't wait to go back.
❤❤
Goosebumps
all touristic ramble talking, you have experienced nothing of the REAL Italy. Nonsense.
This is beautiful! Thank you! I am proud to be Italian and I feel lucky that Italy is my home 💜
Next time you’re here, come to the northern part! If you want a little preview, go check our brand new CZcams channel so you can tour the Langhe area with us!
Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷
I am Italian. I cried reading your words. Please come again to our country, Italy will love you back. God bless you.
I went to Rome, Assisi, Florence and Venice 2 years ago and love it. One of the most beautiful country in the world.
I am a travel advisor and Italy is always the #1 requested destination. Never overrated; however, spending time in the big cities (Rome, Florence, Venice, etc) is good if you've never been but you are really missing out if you don't see the small towns and villages. The REAL Italy!
I was suppose to go to Italy this year in October. My 50th was in Feb. I would love to be there but live in Arkansas, USA . Due to Covid we are still banned. So watching your vlog is the next best thing!! ❤️
we’ll wait for u once it is over. put Turin on the list too.
Don't forget to visit sicily if you love good food,culture,history,sun everyday,beautiful sea & beaches and nice welcoming people!! You will feel at home!
auguri pre il suo viaggio da noi
I hope you get to reschedule your trip!! Happy birthday!
This is so unfortunate! Let’s hope that everything go back to normal as soon as possible! And if you have to chance to come over here, check the northern part as well! If you want a little preview, go take a look at our channel, we are two Somms living in the Langhe area in Piedmont. (Where Barolo and Barbaresco are from)
Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷
THAT MUSIC IN THE BEGINNING was as annoying as a mosquito flying into my ears!
Every italian video made by americans has this overly stereotypical mandolin music.
It's unbearable! Sorry I hate mandolin so much.
These guys are British not American
@@ShadowCastPro let's say that the average italian doesn't speak english really well, the most of us isn't capable of making a clear distinction between british and american english
@@cloudespeed I understand, just wanted to clarify it is all! Most Brits don't like being called Americans.
@@ShadowCastPro I know I know hahahahhaha. British English is way better
Agree with u
OMG, making homemade pizza in a wood burning oven in Italy with a beautiful mountain view and a jug of wine just became a top thing on my bucket list! I can't imagine a better way to spend an evening!
@Marco Chiacchiari The Amalfi coast sounds wonderful! I would love to spend some time there
I’m another person who thinks it’s WORTH IT. I absolutely love Florence. Every time I arrive I feel like I’ve come home. As I walk the streets I always tear up. They are tears of pure joy.
Yes it’s flooded with tourists during the day but at night most of them gave gone.
Anna Tinsman : me too. I Dream of it.
Go to Siena next time! I think it's the most beautiful city in Tuscany.
Yeah, cities can get crowded, but that gives a warmer feeling to the experience.
Thank you! 💜 Italy is my home and I feel super lucky to have the chance to live here! Let’s hope that everything goes back to normal soon, we need people like you to share all this beauty with! By the way, if you’ve never visited the north, go check our brand new channel and you will get the chance to tour our beautiful countryside with us! We would love to get a feedback! Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷🇮🇹
Florence is basicly owned by the Chinese. You can use Union Pay there in all the shops. Union Pay is a Mainland China banking system used exclusively in China and its special admin regions such as HK and Macau. Yet its a dominant payment system in Florence. Florence is a nice place, but people really can't see past their own noses at what's happening to a country that once had the most fantastic architecture, but now sits in literal ruins.
Italian living in Spain here.
All I can say is THANK YOU! You have pictured Italy way and way better than any other channel on CZcams!
You made me proud to be Italian with your video :-)
so why you leave in Spain? mi sembra un pò ridicolo ...
True! We lived in the US for 2 years and enjoyed it very much but casa is casa💜 now that we’re back we get to fully understand the beauty of this country!
By the way, we just started our CZcams channel, we would love for you to have a feedback! We are based in the Langhe area in Piemonte!
Ciao!
@@andreainzaghi7373 Per lavoro, spero che ora la cosa ti sia meno ridicola :-)
Because of my job mate, hope it looks less ridiculous now that you got an explanation :-)
We’re travelling through Italy for the first time at the moment and vlogging and it’s amazing how quiet everywhere is at the moment. Haven’t found it crowded at all and have got to meet loads of locals who are able to give local tips on where’s best to go and eat. It’s been amazing!!
Lockdown haven't heard of it??
@@rob5197 how do you mean? This comment was three weeks ago when Italy was free to travel to from within Europe and we have been making sure to keep to all of the social distance measures and mask wearing etc
@@DanandAbby This year is much less packed than usual because of Covid19, I know this summer until a week ago everything was pretty much open but still it was much less packed!
That's the reason why you guys havent found it crowded.
Hope you enjoyed Italy tho :)
Thank you @@fmls8266 yes we have absolutely loved it and have enjoyed making some CZcams videos of our experiences!
The one place we did find kinda busy was Venice at the beginning of September but I think part of that was it was the film festival. Other than that, places have been relatively quiet, which for a tourist has been nice as no queues!!
Ciao Dan and Abby! This is Chiara & Pier from the Langhe area in Piedmont! We just launched our new channel, go check it out and you will get the chance to “virtually” tour our beautiful countryside with us! 💜Next time you come over here let us know! Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷
Ah, if only they stopped using that mandolin music EVERYWHERE.
Ragioniere la smetta con quel mandolino!
@@capwillard9156 Basta italiani sempre cantare pizza e mandolino e fare rumore, noi teteschi noi folere dormire
Da me nemmeno esiste... Mi è bastato il video di Andrew Zimmern a Oliena per constatare che il suono del famigerato strumento a corda è usato anche per rappresentare luoghi in cui non se ne vede neanche l'ombra.
Mr Simpatia ci stava meglio
@@digge2210 lol
Brilliant! That is REAL Italy. I had a big grin on my face the entire video. Even in Rome, or Venice, or Florence... you can have a local "small town experience" if you choose to. Get off the beaten path. Stay in a room above a family restaurant. Shop at the grocery store. Go to a vinaria for your wine. And most importantly, slow the hell down. Sit somewhere and do nothing but watch, listen, and smell. Don't do anything in a timely manner. That is when travel is at it's best. impromptu. Be open to a variety of options. Do and try new things. Please communicate with locals, even if you don't speak the language. It's really hard not to fall in love with Italy. It seeps into your bones. Once you have been there, you will always feel the pull to go back. It feels like home.
Absolutely, you can choose among 20 different regions, 100 medium towns and about 11.000 little villages, all full of history, art and natural sights, how can be overeated?
Theodore..best comment ever!Totally agree.
@@giovaneitalia8312 19, tutti sanno che il molise non esiste
@@lucabralia5125 perché dici questo?
You catched the sense (to live).
Italy is unique and has the complete package. I'd love to go Italy!
The quality of your videos is wonderful! I love the commentary. It’s like watching a travel tv show.
It’s so lovely to see how Alex always makes Emma laugh. Life only gets more complicated the older you get, it’s way more enjoyable when you have someone along for the ride that can put a smile on your face. Humour makes your blood pressure drop, releases endorphins and makes your skin glow. Which probably means that spending time with Alex is as effective as a daily probiotic, hard core exercise or a juice cleanse! Thanks for the great vlog!
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Bravo!! I just liked and subscribed.
We bought and fixed up a house 3 years ago in Italy and you have captured the heart and soul of Italy with this video. You filmed the things that seemed a bit more incredible in Italy from the other countries we looked at buying in...The food,the art ,the history,the castles,the wine, but most of all the warm Italian people. Please keep up the "off the beaten path" videos of Italy.
Thank you! 💜 Italy is my home and I feel super lucky to have the chance to live here! Let’s hope that everything goes back to normal soon, we need people like you to share all this beauty with!

There’s a magic in Italy I’ve not experienced anywhere else. It’s on the people, the air . Che bello 🇮🇹🥰
Thank you guys! I'm Italian, and with your beautiful video you made me want to tour in my Country again! I appreciate how you genuinely enjoy our lifestyle and I realise how lucky I am in being born here, where we still tend to preserve the right balance between "prosperity" and "slowness".
Loved this video... thanks!!! ❤
Italy is underrated
When I was in Sicily I stayed at a friend's family home. It was great because you are placed in the community. Got to eat at local restaurants and cook at home. Pick olives and lemons right from their trees. Also from someone spent over 10 years in restaurants that made pizza...great 1st attempt 😃
I'm an Italy Junky. Planning to spend 1/2 the year in Italy when I retire. Trying to talk my husband into buying a place there. Fingers crossed.
Italy, a country many want or try to put down has one of the richest cities in the world, Milan, and cute little towns many love to visit to confirm their stereotypes and as well history, culture, food, language dynamics, beauty, design, sciences, engineering, and practically everything and anything else you desire!
If you want a suggestion search and go to torino/turin in north west and it's region. Just wonderful and very underrated, so not full of tourists ;)
Agreed. I'm from there, I could show you around. It's a big city with nothing less than the other most famous ones, but without loads of tourists. Everyone says it feels like a much more genuinely italian "urban" experience
Verissimo, la mia città preferita 😍
No, no, it is dull and boring here. Tourists are best in florence and stuff.
@@jackdeniston59 ma guarda un po'sto picio... tourists must also go to Turin. the center of Turin is beautiful, there is the Egyptian museum, which is second only to that of Cairo, there is the cinema museum in the mole antonelliana and much more
@@jasmineperry387 i agree, i'm from Milan but i'm always have been going in Turin since i was little because i have cousins who live there. It's a city which will always have a place in my heart
Let me tell you that “Italianically” speakin there’s no reason to deny that those are totally perfect Italian pizza... good job guys👍🏼🇮🇹
Really enjoy watching your VDO 👍👍👍
Italia! The most amazing country on our planet. Friuli venezia giulia! The most beautiful region in Italy! Udine! The best city in all of Italy. Love from the UK 😘
Be' adesso non esagerare, dai...
I'm from Udine, the town is nice and clean, particularly attractive if you have kids and want to spend time visiting both the Alps and the Adriatic. Indeed, in Udine you'll have fun with friends sipping a glass of white wine and chatting in our local language (Friulan).
@@fabianomarco54 I have family in udine, my mother was born in chiavris, I was born in the UK but my heart belongs to the friuli.
Living in italian riviera i just can say that i watched something different than usual finally. A great video. I do think your pizzas were absolutely tasty.
Italy is wonderful!
Bravi. Good job! 😁
Hilarious thumbnail! Thanks for the laugh 😆
I love Italy, it has so much to offer. Food, culture, nature, heritage, wine etc. But I agree with you, tourism spoiled so many beautiful places.
Great video, as usual. 😀
As an Italian guys a piece of advice: when making pizza never put cooked tomato, tomato is meant to be put raw atop of the dough of course mixed with salt, a pinch of pepper (optional) cut up basil leaves and olive oil, thats it.
I was waiting for this comment
Fantastic video ❤️
Loved this 😊
is Italy over rated. No!
Yogi Berra, a famous American baseball player, famously said, “it’s too crowded. Nobody goes there anymore.” I’ve been to Italy, mostly the touristy areas, and I can say: IT’S WORTH IT!
Thanks from Italy! 😊❤️
@f. m. who cares?
@f. m. Nobody cares about you.
@f. m. 👍
I've been binge watching you guys since I was introduced to your channel.....this is one of my favorite vlogs!! Good evening from northern B.C Canada!! You guys rock!!
I just love, love, love your videos! Your good energy and fun story-telling is everything!!
Italy is without doubt the most beautiful country in the world ❤️🇮🇹
Tronald Damp ahahah
made me laugh too 😂😂 love it!
It's great fun, especially after a glass of wine. Take care you. Danny From Brussels - Belgium :-)
This is professional made vlog, I felt like I was watching a travel show on Netflix. Great job you two. Enjoyed the dialogue and editing
This was the first time i watched a video of yours and omg guys, you're so lovely. Subscribed and clicked the bell ;) Cheers!
Italy is very loved for its beauty and still it's not overrated, it's underrated ❤
I wouldn’t say underrated. Underrated means not valued enough and a lot of people value Italy.
Italy is beautiful! Like anywhere there are parts that are overcrowded, dirty and unsafe but literally every country in the world has this flip side. Love Italy
I am of Italian descent and have been lucky enough to have visited Italy a few times. You (two) make fun videos that are truly wonderful and appreciated. You are very successful at making me proud of my heritage, and wanting to go back to Italy asap!!!! Mille grazie!!!
I loved this video, you really captured the essence of an Italian vacation. And the comments are so nice... Thank you all, we need it right now, and always actually!
We have a non filming go to place in Italy in July we can be the only car on the road for many miles, its not as expensive as people say and i would happily go no where else for my holidays i love it. weve just come back from touring northern sicily feel free to check us out.
Wonderful Italy 🇮🇹
Loving your videos guys... you are now officially my most favorite travel vloggers!
Just discovered your channel while planning an italy trip and absolutely loving these hidden gems!! Thank you for the laughs and great tips :)
I`m in love with Italia
This one was hilarious!! I'm Italian, from Trieste although I recently moved to Finland. You did a pretty good job with the pizzas!! I'm pleasantly surprised!
The only thing I never like on videos about Italy is that background mandolin music.... It doesn't represent Italy anymore, especially not the North. If you visited my country a number of times in different areas, you might have noticed the differences between North, Center and South.
Ps: no way to find better tomatoes than in Italy... I tried making pizza myself in Helsinki, as I used to do at home, but the ingredients don't do it justice at all.
Right Surely pizza isn t a typical dish from northern Italy.
@@lenase7396 of course it's not, but at this point (supposedly) everyone knows were pizza comes from... There shouldn't be the need to say it. Nonetheless, pizza in Northern Italy is undoubtedly better than abroad... If you can't make it to the Campania region.
@@raheltd I had a much better pizza in Berlin than in most of the Turin's pizzerie. Just saying :P
enough of this bullsh**...south, north, center left and right... as an Italian you probably know that, although the maifia have its roots in the south of Italy, nowadays mafia is present in northern as well as southern Italy, it is a matter of fact. (Im not form southern Italy btw) Apart from that, Im agreed with you.
wrong! Mandolin rapresents Italy better than anyother instrument. And NORTH in particular, think of VIVALDI.
Non conosci VIVALDI? i concerti per MANDOLINO? guarda che era VENETO, mica napoletano.
I love how you make each other laugh! Very entertaining.
Liked your channel so much
Italy is so diverse, I literally can’t decide where to visit next. I’ve been to Rome and it was lovely. We want to visit Puglia or Campania next but there are just so many places to choose from.
Hello, after reading your comment, you love to travel, my goal is to travel around the world, and I hope to discuss some things about travel with you
Many places, which you can visit in one day lol.
I live in naples it's campagnia
Italy is still on top of my bucket list. Lovely place, people and the culture❤️
You two just crack us up! What an enjoyable video!! Pizza looks amazing! Thank you for bringing us outside the touristy areas! We cannot wait to visit Italy! Bravo guys!
Loving the Italy series! What a great job you did with the pizza! They looked absolutely delicious.
Hey Emma and Alex, you two are one of the most "naturally entertaining" travel vlogging couples on YT and one of the most underrated. And I appreciate how well made your contents are. You deserve that YT silver button soon. Take care, cheers!
yes, i recently discovered this channel. Filming, editing and commenting all bind very well together. Actually one of the best made videos about travelling.
Completely agree. You guys make this stuff look easy. Keep up the fun content. It feels really nice to genuinely smile and be entertained during these crazy times.
I have been to so many countries, but came back to Italy more times than all my other trips combined. Italy has so much to offer from everthing: culture, heritage, beaches, mountains, lakes, architecture, food, very nice people, beautiful passionate girls and much more. Rome, Venice, Florence are maybe 1% of what the country has to offer. I was never disappointed (well, to be honest, one single time yes: I made some really bad experiences in Taranto. Don't go there)
Omg Taranto! It's just about the port and Ilva heavy industry and it's enormous pollution with a number of cancer cases much higher than the national stats. Just pass around it!
Hi, I'm from Taranto, I'm sorry you had a bad experience. It's a real shame because Taranto is beautiful, the only colony of Sparta
@@ivancoviello2690 Grazie Ivan per la tua risposta. Sì, ci sono senza dubbio tanti bei posti a Taranto, ma era piuttosto la maniera con cui ci trattavano i tarantini. Penso che il turismo sia un fenomeno abbastanza nuovo in quella zona e debbano ancora imparare come trattare bene i turisti. Finora era l'unica volta della mia vita che io sia partito da un posto prima della data prevista...
@@alexs.7915 Guarda ti do raggione sul fatto che è un fenomeno nuovo e dobbiamo imparare, ma sospetto che il caratteraccio da pirati che ci ritroviamo noi tarantini,non c'è l'ho toglieremo mai😅
@@ivancoviello2690 Dalla mia esperienza... nel momento in cui capiscono quanti soldi porta il turismo, diventano tutti lecchini 😂😂
Wow, stunning scenic shots. Love the drone scenes but everything looks beautiful. Perfect classic travel episode with vista's, wine and food, but still with your uniquely sarcastic humor😁
But again, crazy stunning filming!!!
Thanks for this beautiful share, James and Kim
I love your vids on italy!! Greetings from italian fan!
When I was in Poland I asked for a pizza with sausage and mushrooms. The waitress said, "Sausage? I guess I could do that." Well I was a little afraid how it was going to turn out. I guess I was expecting Italian sausage on my pizza, but it came back with sliced kielbasa on it. Actually, it tasted pretty good.
You need to be careful with asking for sausage in Poland. You can get about 1000 different kinds. We think we invented kielbasa and wodka. And of course, it's true.
Susan Mance u dont eat pizza i Poland , pierogi and other great food
@@alicepopovski6303 since my son now lives in Poland, I have been there a number of times for extended visits. Therefore, plenty of time for both pizza and pierogi! :)
We Italians know well where tourists usually go, but we know perfectly well that Italy is all beautiful, there is no city that does not give you something, for the simple fact that it is a true nation culturally, which has kept its historical nature intact , so you might find beauty even in places you've never heard the name of …
it is we Italians who underestimate ourselves, Italy, with its wealth of art, culture and natural beauty, has long been the leader of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world, and we invest nothing in Rome, the Eternal City .... the other nations invest a lot in their cities and capitals, Tokyo, London, Paris ecc.
in reality, Italy has never reached its real potential, our problem is the politicians who sell us off for a loaf of bread … XD
P.S. You are two crazy guys, you made me laugh xD
assolutamente d'accordo!
Italy a country living in the past, and dieing with it, unkept unesco sights made up mainly of churches, dirty ugly cities, villages so old and crumbling no idea why them are still standing - - yes it is overrated indeed
@@rob5197 poor boy did an Italian just steal your girlfriend? The only truth you show is your hurted butt
@@rob5197 Ok if you don't like it don't come
Thanks for sharing this experience and genuine point of view of Italy.
I really love your videos and how you film them, but this one was sooo good. the sad scene was too funny. I never really considered going to Italy until now after watching this video but now it's on my list. Thanks for posting it.
You cracked me up and now I really want to go to Italy! :) My toppings would be proscuitto, cheese and maybe olives.
Thank you! 💜 Italy is my home and I feel super lucky to have the chance to live here! Let’s hope that everything goes back to normal soon, we need people like you to share all this beauty with! By the way, if you’ve never visited the north, go check our brand new channel and you will get the chance to tour our beautiful countryside with us! We would love to get a feedback! Ciao from Alba! 🇮🇹🍷🇮🇹
Prosciutto and cheese? You must visit Parma 😉
Well, you gave me the Emma burning eyes. Did you need to put the swimming costume on Alex!
I felt very relieved reading the title and then seeing you starting everything in Cinque Terre which is probably one of the best place EVER. :-) Many other would have just talked about Rome. Well made.
This is great!
Italy is underrated because no one knows me.
Know me, love Italy.
@Demy Troy so?
I found this video a little weird until i saw the amount of wine they bought😁😁
Love watching your videos 🙂
Love you and your videos
As an Italian, it's so good to read all these amazing comments of yours! From the inside we tend to forget about the positive things and just look at what is wrong with our country (so many thing unfortunately) 😂
Ps: mandolin has nothing, and I mean nothing, to do with northern Italy and the region of Liguria (and honestly I've never even heard it once in my whole lifetime)
Not even in the South would you ever listen to that music playing
Been to Italy and it's one of the most wonderful experiences in my life... Can't wait to visit again
This was Absolutly enjoyable! omg i miss italy so much...your both so much fun. Grazie!
This video is awesome ! :)
I hate hearing that soundrack knowing that everyone thinks it represents all Italy 😔
Pepperoni is something americans invented 😅 but i think it's like our italian "salamino piccante"... if you say peperoni in Italy we mean the vegetable "peppers"
BTW - LOVE this channel. Out of all the travel channels- this is the best!!
Siete fantastici ragazzi, bravi continuate cosi!
