Equipment
Car seats may be useful on the plane for active toddlers. They are required in rental cars for many children under 4, regardless of a child's weight. Many car rental companies offer car seats, but quality is not predictable.

Strollers
Cobblestone streets mean that strollers should be lightweight and durable. Some parents rave about using jog strollers while traveling - the downside is they are not as portable.

Cribs
All Ciao Bambino recommended properties have cribs available for clients.

Highchairs
Many Ciao Bambino recommended properties provide highchairs but you may come across restaurants that don’t provide them.
