Untold Italy · Friday, July 3, 2026
Three moms, including two who live in Italy, discuss why family travel in Italy is often surprisingly easy and more welcoming than many assume. They highlight that Italians are generally very fond of children and accommodating to families, often making them feel welcome.
“Most people assume Italy with kids will be complicated thanks to some assumptions about the many cobblestones on long, long lunches and the three hour museum circuits that some people. Like to promote. They are usually very surprised by what they find instead.”
“I love traveling in Italy with her baby because Italians are obsessed with babies and children, and they're just so friendly. It's family orientated, so you feel I feel really welcome wherever I go with my daughter.”
“So I think, as someone who's traveled to a lot of places with small children, that Italy is actually one of the easiest places to travel.”
