Taken from the heights of the magnificent village of Morcotte in Ticino, Northern Italy is within easy reach.

Yes, I've been there a few times. A few years ago, when I was on holiday in Ticino, we took a speedboat (the ones that rise out of the water at a certain speed) to pay a visit to the Borromean Islands, further south on Lake Maggiore. They are magnificent! Best visited out of season to avoid the tourist crowds. I'll post a photo of the islands later.
The photo above was taken from Switzerland, with Italy visible in the distance.

Here are a few more views, taken from one of the Borromean islands. Northern Italy is magnificent.

Don't worry, northern Italy is not dangerous. Of course, tourists can occasionally be ripped off, but the mafia probably has little to do with this petty crime.
And for only a little more, you can visit Ticino, which is a lot like northern Italy, but perhaps a little safer.

These are really stunning views. Yes, everyone keeps saying that northern Italy is not safe.

Thinking to visiting Italy this year, most likely driving there.

My wife she wants to see Venice.

Have you been there ?

No, I don't know Venice.
Don't go there in high season!
I've seen photos where you can't even see the ground, there are so many tourists...

To be honest, don't even know where is the high season in Italy. Was thinking in May.

šŸ˜† I wouldnā€™t want that definitely. November probably will be cold too.
