Excerpt from Italy: Handbook for Travellers; Northern Italy, Including Leghorn, Florence, Ravenna, the Island of Corsica, and Routes Through France, Switzerland, and Austria Expenses. The cost of a tour in Italy depends of course on the traveller's resources and habits, but, as a rule, it need not exceed that incurred in other much frequented parts of the continent. The average expenditure of a single traveller, when in Italy, may be estimated at 25-30 francs per day, or at 12-15 francs when a pro longed stay is made at one place; but persons acquainted with the language and habits of the country may easily restrict their ex penses to still narrower limits. Those who travel as members of a party effect a considerable saving by sharing the expense of guides, carriages, and other items. When ladies are of the party, the ex penses are generally greater.
