San Marino is a microstate located within the country of Italy, but it’s actually it’s own country! I never knew much about these micro-countries before my quest to visit every country so trying to figure out the logistics to get to all of them can be a hassle.
How to Get There
If you’re flying into solely see San Marino, the best option would be to fly into Bologna, Italy and rent a car. If you can’t rent a car, you can take a train to Rimini and catch a bus to San Marino. It’s only a two hour drive, so you can easily do it as a day trip.
What to See
Personally my favorite thing to do was the Guaita Tower, and it’s best to photograph it at sunset. You get a stunning view of Italy from the top as well! Unfortunately it was raining when I went, but hopefully one day I’ll be back on a nice day.
