If you have European maps on it. Bring the cig lighter cord and an adapter for charging in the hotel room and you should be fine.

We have a Garmin 260W with the complete European maps sd card and we use it every year in Italy. It is invaluable, but not infallible. You should also have a good map with you. The Italian street plans are designed like a dish of linguine. Turn the GPS on when you first arrive in Italy so it will orient itself and then turn it off until you need it. This will save you time and panic when you first use it in your vehicle. Buon viaggio,
