HOW MUCH MONEY SHOUlD I GO TO ITALY WITH?
If you are going for 9 days, I say you should bring about 40 dollars a day. Yes, that might seem like way too much, but if you can afford it, I think having 350 dollars will be good. That way, if you want to splurge and get a nice lunch one day (between 40-50 dollars) you can. Also, you can buy trinkets or souvenirs no problem. Remember, Italy is expensive!! A lot of places charge you (maybe 25-50 cents) to use public restrooms. A lot of churches charge admission (maybe 2-3 euros). Also, I think bringing a lot of money can only be a positive. Worst case scenario, if you bring too much, you can always bring it back home with you. Last thing – make sure you have a way to get money while in Italy just in case of emergencies. Perhaps that is your or a parent’s ATM card that will work abroad. It’s always good to be safe.
