Did William Shakespeare travel to Italy to get the tale of Romeo and Juliet?
No, Shakespeare is not known ever to have travelled out of England, although he might possibly have done. His early life was in and around Stratford-on-Avon, most of his life writing and performing drama was in London. In any case, he didn't have to go to Italy to get the tale of Romeo and Juliet since it was readily available in England in Arthur Brooke's English poem Romeus and Juliet (which is exactly where Shakespeare did get it).
Where has William Shakespeare traveled to?
We have no reason to believe that Shakespeare ever went anywhere except Stratford and London and the places in between. It is of course possible that he may have travelled during his lost years 1585-1592, but we would have no idea where.
Why did scholars think Shakespeare was a fraud?
No scholars think Shakespeare was a fraud, or ever did. Some fringe theorists think that the scholars are frauds for insisting that the William Shakespeare who wrote all those plays and poetry is the same person as the William Shakespeare who was born in Stratford-upon-Avon, was married, had kids, owned property and died there, and also owned property in London, where he was well known as an actor and member of a theatre company and was close friends with the other members of that company, which happened to be the only company which ever performed the plays attributed to William Shakespeare. These theorists claim that the plays and poetry were really written by someone else who for some reason allowed them to be published under the name of Mr. Shakespeare who, along with most of the London theatre community of the day, were involved in a huge conspiracy to keep this secret. No coherent reason is ever given for why anyone would do that.
