From Rome, I think we can start. Or from Naples and its environs.

Yes, we must start from Rome, it is not for nothing that the proverb was not invented by us, which says: All roads lead to Rome.
And then go to an Italian resort, lie on
sunshine, drink good wine, enjoy their wonderful cuisine.

Rome, Venice, and Florence, Milan .. so you will fall in love with Italy forever .. and then decide for yourself which part of Italy is yours - the north with its lakes, the center with its antiquities or the south with its seas, small cozy towns and clean beaches .

I started from Venice and did not regret it. Then there were Rome, and Genoa, and Milan, Ravenna and Bari.
You may be interested in a sea cruise in the Mediterranean or the Adriatic. A day in the port, then on the liner you relax and have fun, then a new city and port. Conditions on the liner - this is a five-star hotel floating on the sea, there are restaurants and bars, a casino, swimming pools, a theater, an ice rink and much more. This is "interesting and tasty and not expensive for money"
After sea cruises, the rest seems insipid to me.

Very interesting and beautiful on Lake Garda. It is not difficult to get there if you arrive in Venice.
As for delicious, this is a problem in Italy IMHO. In any case, in Venice, Verona and neighboring cities.

Ho Ho Ho ... "not expensive", tasty and interesting concepts in Italy are not compatible ... although if a dinner of 20-30 euros for one is not expensive for you, then of course)

AllOverTheWorld I don’t know who you are answering, it seems that no one here wrote about the cost of food. Or did I miss something? But I will surprise you, for 20-25 you can eat for two in Venice, or even cheaper.

All of Italy is beautiful! You can start from any of the famous cities (Milan, Rome, Venice, Florence), proceed from the place of arrival. It all depends on your intentions - to visit many places or see a couple. We started in a week - Milan, Venice, Verona, Florence , Rome-transfers by train. It was not tiring, but, of course, overview. Food-each region has its own-but this is Italian food, how not to love it (but, of course, you can get stuck in tourist places)

AllOverTheWorld well .. where did you eat? on St. Mark's Square? But what do you want?)) the most central place, it’s like having lunch in a restaurant on Khreshchatyk, and in any other city on the central square, because this is the very one in Venice. Everything is relative. You can always find an expensive and not much food.

At home, it makes no sense for me to drink prosecco and eat frozen shrimp.
At home, vodka with herring is delicious for me)
Our argument is nothing...
I'm just trying to convey that in order to try delicious Italy (Rome is absolutely not tasty and expensive), you need to be an advanced tourist and have a certain budget. Agree, eating fast food in Italy and so on...it's not tasty, it's easier to go to a local market, take valpolicella, fresh bread, olives and prosciutto, and of course cheese...and eat it all on the veranda... .

All of the above places are well-known tourist centers, therefore, they are always more expensive. In order to be inexpensive, you need to carefully plan, decide on the place of arrival (this is also the price of air tickets), the number of days, the route where you will live, and then where to eat and what to see))) Unless, of course, the trip is independent, and not a tour package)))

AllOverTheWorld and this is written by someone who pays 30 or 50 euros for one and is indignant? )) Where is the logic? So you decide, if it’s expensive for me, then I don’t buy for 50 euros for one meal, but you buy, but shout expensive! Do I recognize our show-offs first of all?) And stop converting euros into hryvnias-zp in our country does not correspond to them. To make it easier to perceive, consider that 30 euros is 30 UAH, because for them it is). But in principle I do not see why argue? Anyone who wants to get by with potatoes and be happy .. but someone wants to pay 100 euros for lunch. To each his own. And everyone will be fine!)

Logic is not your forte
If potatoes in Italy are delicious for you, for God's sake .....
The author of the question....please write the approximate budget of the trip...and the number of days..

AllOverTheWorld .. it’s clear .. that is, if you didn’t see him and didn’t eat for 1 euro, then I couldn’t?)) Wow)) But you don’t need to be rude. And twist too. You don’t want to peacefully, but oh well)) The main thing is not to convince people that food is only expensive there. Then, for example, I want to say go to Austria, Switzerland and eat there chic for 30 euros.)

Start with a bus tour. You will have the opportunity to visit several cities on a budget, and on the way you will see Hungary and Austria or Slovenia. This is also interesting. Perhaps you yourself would not have planned to visit these countries.

Out of curiosity, I looked at this prosecco in an ordinary supermarket near the house, prices start from 10 euros. So a bottle of prosecco + shrimp in a restaurant for 30 euros is generally democratic for you.

The author is generally almost from Moscow, it is unlikely to scare her with Venetian prices. So, really, the concept of "inexpensive" is different for everyone.

lana_181, where did I get rude to you?
You are changing concepts. In Italy, you can’t eat chic for 30 euros either, I didn’t write anything about “chic”. Thanks for the advice, we were, we know, then I want to say, go to Portugal, it’s cheaper and tastier ....
about ice cream:
I'm talking about real Italian ice cream, which doesn't cost less than 1.20€ per scoop.
For many tourists, Venice is a very controversial city and one of the most expensive in Italy, because it exists due to tourism .... therefore, I do not argue with you, but express my opinion and do not impose it on anyone, Venice is cheap, even in Italian standards, it won't. And there are fast foods and cheap food in Switzerland and Austria ......
The author of the question, Italy is a wonderful country and of course you can try to meet any budget, the main thing is to think over the route in advance, but start over, estimate according to your budget, or by air, then you need to catch cheap flights, or a bus driver, then choose from ready-made tours

Yes, but no one supported me about sea cruises!
Firstly, there was an opinion that it was expensive, although this is not entirely true. Cabins there are of various categories from domestic to royal suites. Tasty - the level of a good five-star hotel, you come from an excursion (independent or from a cruise, there are no obligations, as in bus) and a lot of entertainment, from a casino to a theater, from a disco to a pool. That's why I wrote that it's tasty and interesting.
And such a holiday is not much more expensive than a bus with their transfers, hotels on the outskirts of famous Italian cities, their "faster, faster, don't linger!". Food prices in tourist areas are of course expensive, and you go a little away from the tourist trails and eat where ordinary Italians eat, in their trattorias and pizzerias, you will enjoy it. Eat ice cream there, and not at San Marco or at Coliseum!
