Mark Felice the past few years I've been doing the opposite: I've spent a lot of time exploring the north of Italy, and this winter I'm going to start in Naples and work my way down and around Sicily. I was in Sicily for a few weeks about ten years ago, but without a rental car, which limited my experience. I just listened to The Godfather, with its description of Sicily, which piqued my interest in going back. I see you've done a bunch of videos there, so I'll check them out for sure.

I love south Italy too mark. All southern regions of my country are really beautiful but I think you should visit also northern regions like piedmont and in particular a zone called monferrato where it's produced very good wine. It's only a suggestion naturally. Anyway amazing video of matera. Here it's been realized a mel gibson movie titled "The Passion of Christ" and now it's been realized an italian fiction titled "Imma Tataranni" a crime comedy fiction. I know you probably ignore who is this character, let me say that she's like Detective Montalbano.

How did you learn to drive in such a foreign country..and know the rules?

[@EuroTrotter]

Great questions....driving wasn't the hard part...knowing that there are traffic cameras everywhere especially on freeways and that speed limits change almost every 100 feet at time was a lot to get used to...after getting way too many tickets, you learn real quick LOL

[@ted.angell7609]

Driving isn't too hard in Italy. Just remember 1) when you see a sign that says FISCALIZZAZIONE ELETTRONICA there is a camera ahead and if you are going 1km over you will get a ticket in the mail at your home overseas 8-9 months later; never mind what you see the black and gray Audis doing. 2) When you park, you are being watched and ticketed just as assiduously. 3) No matter how fast you are driving, you will be tailgated. 4) On the freeway they have an annoying habit of straddling two lanes and blocking your lane without actually committing to using it. 5) In the traffic circles, whoever is already in the circle has the right of way.
