Sunder and his cousin brought me here and offered me coffee. It's Italy so I did not wanted to risk anything and just asked around in Italian. Found someone after half hour (I was taking my time) thanks Roberto! The type of guy who is dressed well, drive a beautiful car, you never know don't judge people!―cavalierrustique

Perfect legal spot to go to Brescia petrol stations. However I paid 12€ to go there. I had a sign with VERONA/VENEZIA but no one seemed to go there in about a hour. I had basically 4 people stopping for me to go to Brescia but I was too stubborn to find someone to at least Verona. Just go to Brescia and move on lol.―cavalierrustique

Good spot to go to Milan, because there are two direct ways. And it is just one way from the gas station for all the traffic. We (couple) had a sign Milan.―TwoThumbsTravel

We (2) saw a group of Slovenian ski instructors who were looking at us, so we asked them for the Milan direction and they immediately took us to another gas station before Brescia, which is a good spot before Milan.―TwoThumbsTravel

It’s not great, but it’s Italy. And with it being Italy, it’s actually pretty good!I got there in the afternoon in late January, with a sign reading “Verona”.
I barely got any looks from passing cars, in all the time I was then I think it was two waves at most. But after 45 minutes, Michaela and her young son offered me a ride to Desenzano. As we were driving, her son who spoke English would translate between us, to save me the horror of my broken Italian. She decided that she absolutely refused to drop me at a service station to continue hitching, not because it was dangerous in her eyes, but because she thought it would take too long!
In her eyes, she wanted to take me all the way to Verona, so the best she could do was invite me to her home for lunch, and buy me a train ticked to Verona!
After countless refusals on my behalf, I finally gave in to the hospitality, and had the loveliest afternoon.
“I’ve never had anything like this happen when hitching before!”
“You’re in Italy now.”

Good for getting a medium-distance ride east or west, before the drivers enter the autostrada. Carabinieri were everywhere, but for once they didn't mind.http://hitchwiki.org/en/Desenzano

Hitch on both sides of the road, for a chance to get a medium-distance ride on the autostrada. This spot is good, although carabinieri are using it as a checkpoint.http://hitchwiki.org/en/Desenzano

Many tourists, many happy faces, many cars going many faraway places, and many rides for you. Ask at the car park, or start walking down the road.http://hitchwiki.org/en/Sirmione

We were two people. Used sign and asked people. We were trying to go south. After one and a half hour we changed location cause nobody drove southwards, just east and west.―Damanu

I was waiting for 4h30min (To South) and nothing. It was since 9:00, nice traffic. Staff from gas station was shouting at me not to ask drivers or he calls police. They've arrived twice and told me to not hitchike in Italy.―Petrchutny
