The work chronicles the experiences and observations of Michel de Montaigne as he journeys through various Italian cities, offering insights into the culture, landscapes, and people he encounters. The narrative is both descriptive and reflective, highlighting Montaigne's characteristic curiosity and philosophical musings. The opening of the journal begins with Montaigne's journey from Loreto to the Baths of Lucca, detailing his travels through picturesque towns such as Ancona, Sinigaglia, and Fano. He describes the geography, local customs, notable architecture, and the hospitable interactions with the people he meets along the way.
