Are tour companies really losing access to the Colosseum? Do Italians actually refuse cappuccino after 11 AM? Is that rule going viral online something you actually need to follow?
In this live session, I cut through the rumors, viral videos, and Facebook group panic with what is actually true about traveling in Italy right now.
If you've read something online that you're not sure is true, or a post that has you panicked or confused about your trip, this video is for you. I've lived in Rome since 2001, I'm married to a Roman, and I've been running Romewise since 2009, which means I've spent more than 15 years helping travelers tell the real advice from the clickbait.
Drop your questions in the comments and I'll keep answering them.
