If you're heading to Italy and want to stay online, there are a bunch of options. Mobile WiFi Italy rentals (like pocket WiFi) are great if you want a simple, plug-and-play solution. Just power it on, connect, and you’re good anywhere there's signal.
For solo travelers or longer stays, Italy internet packages with prepaid SIM cards are super budget-friendly. You’ll find them at airports, phone shops, or even vending machines. Plans vary, but most offer solid 4G speeds and enough data for everyday use — email, browsing, Google Maps, the usual stuff.
Don’t want another gadget? Then skip portable WiFi in Italy and just use a local SIM in your phone. Just make sure your device’s unlocked. And always double-check if your hotel has decent WiFi — some are great, others not so much.
Either way, planning ahead means no nasty roaming surprises later.
