Italy

Do I need a converter to charge devices such as cell phones, laptops, and other electrical appliances?

Yes, you’ll need a plug adapter—and possibly a voltage converter—to use your devices in Italy. It’s best to buy the correct adapter before you travel, as they can be harder to find and more expensive once you arrive.

I’ve heard that you’re not supposed to tip in Italy—is that true?

Tipping isn’t expected in Italy, so you won’t offend anyone by skipping it. That said, leaving a small tip for excellent service is appreciated. If you do tip, give it directly to the person who served you. You may also notice a small cover charge on your bill called “coperto,” usually around €1.50–€2.00 per person, which is standard and covers service items like bread.

Can I use my ATM and credit cards in Italy?

Yes, cards are widely accepted, but you should notify your bank before traveling to avoid any issues with security blocks. It’s also common for cashiers to ask for ID when you pay by card, so keep your passport or driver’s license handy.

What should I bring that’s essential?

Bring any prescription medications you need, along with adapters for your electronics. Note that Italy uses a different voltage system than North America, so check if your devices are compatible. Skip packing extra food—you’ll have plenty of great dining options once you arrive.

What if I need over-the-counter medication in Italy?

Pharmacies (“farmacias”) are easy to find throughout Italy and often have convenient hours, with some open 24/7. They can provide over-the-counter medicine, and you can also fill prescriptions there if needed. Travel Insurance is also recommended, you can find that here. 

Are Dietary restrictions accommodated: vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan?

Italy is very accommodating to dietary needs. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are widely available, especially in cities and tourist areas. Just let your server know about any preferences or allergies.

Do hotels offer dry cleaning and laundry services?

Many hotels offer laundry or dry-cleaning services, usually for an additional fee.

Is Italy child-friendly?

Yes, Italy is very welcoming to families. Restaurants are typically accommodating to children, even if there isn’t a specific kids’ menu. You can often request smaller or simpler dishes. Baby supplies are easy to find, though changing facilities may not always be available.

Do you need to speak Italian to travel in Italy?

No, but learning a few basic phrases like “buongiorno” (hello) and “grazie” (thank you) is appreciated and can enhance your experience.

Should you carry cash in Italy?

Yes. While cards are commonly accepted, cash is still useful—especially in smaller towns, cafés, and markets. It’s usually best to withdraw euros from an ATM after you arrive.

What should you know about dining in Italy?

Meals in Italy are meant to be relaxed and enjoyed at a slower pace. You’ll usually need to ask for the check (“il conto”) when you’re ready. Expect small extras like the coperto, and take your time—dining is an important part of the culture.

What are Visa Requirements?

U.S. citizens do not need a visa for tourist or business stays in Italy up to 90 days within a 180-day period, but must have a passport valid for at least 3 months beyond their departure date. Starting in 2026, Americans must apply for a €7–€8 ETIAS travel authorization online before traveling. Check VISA Requirements here.

Spain

When is the best time to visit Spain?

The best times to visit Spain are typically March to May and September to November. During these months, the weather is warm, prices are more reasonable, and there are fewer crowds compared to the busy summer season. These periods are great for sightseeing, coastal drives, and wine experiences. Summer (June–August) brings clear skies and lively energy, but also higher temperatures and larger crowds, especially in major cities and along the Mediterranean coast.

How many days should I spend in Spain?

A trip of 8–14 days is ideal for exploring Spain’s main highlights. This allows enough time to visit cities like Barcelona, Madrid, and Seville, relax along the coast, and explore regions such as Andalusia or the Basque Country. Longer trips of more than two weeks can include lesser-known destinations or even nearby countries like Portugal or France.

Should I visit northern or southern Spain?

It depends on your travel preferences: Southern Spain: Known for Moorish heritage, historic cities, and traditional culture. You can explore Seville, visit Córdoba, and see landmarks like the Puente Nuevo in Ronda. Northern Spain: Offers lush landscapes, coastal views, and culinary experiences. Highlights include Barcelona, San Sebastián, and the Rioja wine region. Both regions provide distinct experiences, so your itinerary can be tailored based on your interests.

How do I travel around Spain?

Spain has a wide range of transportation options. By plane: Domestic flights connect major cities quickly. By train: High-speed and regional trains are efficient and scenic. By car: Ideal for exploring rural areas and smaller towns. By bus: Comfortable and affordable for short and long distances. By boat: Useful for traveling between coastal areas or islands.

What food should I try in Spain?

Spanish cuisine blends Mediterranean and Moorish influences, with a strong emphasis on shared dining. Popular dishes include: Paella: A rice dish often made with seafood. Gazpacho: A cold tomato-based soup. Jamón: Dry-cured ham. Patatas bravas: Fried potatoes with spicy sauce. Spanish tortilla: A potato-based omelet. Sangria: A fruit-infused wine drink. Chorizo: A seasoned cured sausage. Manchego cheese: A sheep’s milk cheese. Gambas al ajillo: Garlic shrimp. Pimientos de Padrón: Small green peppers.

Is Spain a good destination for wine?

Yes, Spain is an excellent destination for wine tourism. Regions like La Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Catalonia, and Andalusia produce a wide variety of wines, from bold reds like Tempranillo to refreshing whites such as those made from Macabeo grapes. Wine tours often include tastings, vineyard visits, and regional food pairings.

Do shops close during siesta in Spain?

In many traditional cities such as Seville and Granada, shops may close for a few hours in the early afternoon, typically between 1 pm and 4 pm. However, in larger cities like Barcelona and Madrid, many businesses remain open throughout the day.

Is Spain safe to visit?

Spain is considered a very safe destination with low crime rates. Travelers should still take basic precautions, especially in crowded areas where pickpocketing can occur. Keeping valuables secure and staying aware of your surroundings is recommended. Travel Insurance is recommended, check here.

What language do they speak in Spain?

Spanish (Castilian) is the official language. Other regional languages include Catalan, Basque, Galician, and Aranese. English is widely spoken in major cities and tourist areas, though learning a few basic Spanish phrases can be helpful.

What currency does Spain use?

Spain uses the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted, but carrying some cash is advisable, particularly in smaller towns or markets.

- Stefan and Molly

Our Happy Clients

I was very pleased with the service that I received from evolution35 travel company. Our 9 day trip to Cancún was wonderful time in this beautiful country. The resorts that evolution35 chose for our stay were all wonderful! Evolution35 people was in constant communication with us via email and WhatsApp asking how the trip was going and if we had any concerns or requests and when I did have a request they responded immediately and took care of it. Everything including tours and transportation were taken care of for us so it was very relaxing knowing we did not have to think about anything except when and where we were going next. Evolution35 also worked hard to ensure that we have a wonderful time during our stay in Cancun an that we return home safe. We are planing a trip to Costa Rica with Evolution35 in October.

- Jose Ruiz

Our Happy Clients

The Paris 99 trip was great. We enjoyed the driving tour of Paris, although we did fall asleep a few times as we were tired from the overnight flight from SLC. Our guide, Pedro, provided excellent information on the history of Paris and the sites we saw. The tour of Versailles was excellent, but we do wish we could have spent a little more time there. The Eifel Tower was amazing but felt a little rushed. The dinner on the Seine was excellent. Thank you for a great trip.

- Richard Leake

Our Happy Clients

Our Happy Clients

We did the Costa Rica trip and it was incredible. Zipline, rainforest, boat rides, catamaran. It
was soooo much trip for the money. Loved the hotel Tabacón with the hot springs and the
Westin was also 5 star! You go from the Carribean side to the Pacific. It's the trip of a
lifetime. Well done evolution35

- ANALIS CARATTINI-RUIZ

Fantastic trip to Paris with Evolution 35. Between booking our trip and the time we left, we had lots of questions and they were always so quick to respond to our emails. It was so wonderful that they took care of many details of our trip for us, especially the first couple of days as we were getting oriented in a foreign place! Our tour guide was hilarious and knowledgeable. He helped us stay safe and have a lot of fun too! A great experience for us!

Our Happy Clients

Contacté con esta empresa gracias a una amiga. La relación calidad/precio me ha parecido
excelente. La atención durante la contratación del viaje fue muy buena y rápida.
Solucionaron todas nuestras dudas, que eran muchas, con paciencia y acierto. La propuesta
que finalmente contratamos ha sido ideal para una primera vez en Hawaii, nos ha permitido
vivir la tranquilidad de la isla y hacer rutas por los parques naturales. En la llegada a Maui no
reubicaron a un apartahotel mejor en una zona diferente a la inicial que resultó ser un gran
acierto, dado que íbamos en familia, y facilitó nuestra estancia. Si podemos volver en el
futuro para conocer las otras islas, seguro que repetimos con ellos. ¡Gracias!
