Are you kidding me? Bergamo? I've been twice over the last few years. My wifes aunt and Uncle live there, the Aunt just moved to Torino to be closer to the other aunt, anyway I stayed a few bus stops west of the main strip of Citta Bassa on via Mattiolli. We hit Citta Alta many many times. Also to Lago de Como, Garda, Maggiore, San Pelligrino, Fopollo, etc, etc. nice place!!
The guy driving to Sicily is already there. He's updating his thread each day and I think he was just in Verona.
This is getting into Off Topic teritory but here are a few pics I took a few years ago:
