But it seems like a complicated situation for you to handle with one or more children in tow. Perhaps the assumption that prevents you from planning the trip is hidden in the phrase &#8220;in tow.&#8221; Perhaps many of us have an image in our minds that does not necessarily correspond to reality, in which children &#8220;undergo the trip&#8221; by being &#8220;dragged&#8221; from museum to museum, to churches or crowded squares to hunt for monuments and architectural treasures and then return exhausted to the cramped room of an anonymous accommodation. Effectively so, it is not very enticing.    <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Good news<\/h2>\n\n<p>La <a href=\"http:\/\/www.casavaldeseroma.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Waldensian House in Rome<\/strong><\/a>, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firenzeforesteria.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Waldensian Guesthouse in Florence<\/strong><\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foresteriavenezia.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Valdese Guesthouse in Venice<\/strong><\/a> have a long tradition in <strong>hospitality aimed at families<\/strong>, large or small, and <strong>groups of friends with families<\/strong>.
