Hi guys,
I’ll be visiting your lovely city by myself from 4-9 September and have prepared a short itinerary with the help of AI and online blogs/ YT videos. Need a sense check before I trust this completely, I’ve already booked the two museums (the main one is free on Sundays so have only booked a guided tour), and also an evening dinner at Diego Vitagliano. I'll be arriving from Amsterdam so a short flight. I've kept the pace of the trip to have a balance of activities and rest periods along with early night-ins since I prefer waking up early in the morning. I also love to do photography so have made some space for it in the agenda. What do you think?
