  1. Hereby a few words about travel insurance for Rome, Italy. Travel insurance is a very important item in preparation of any trip, especially when you travel far away from home, like from the US to Europe.
    Italy has its own requirements when it comes to travel insurance.
    I’d call health insurance for Italy the most important and valuable option for you to invest in. And this is not because Italy is a dangerous place to be but it purely has to do with the high cost of health care services in Italy. And getting a medical will secure you from the unexpected costs related to medical treatment when needed.
