Visit Rome

Rome is amazing, make sure you take comfy shoes as it is all walkable. We have older children (teenagers) and they really enjoyed it too. Definitely try and book tickets for anything you want to see before you go as they can be expensive to source once you are there.

I loved the opportunity to explore on the Hop on Hop Off buses, and capture moments on camera, and then determine places where I would stop off and explore by walking in the neighbourhood. There was a variety of things to do and see, and I thoroughly enjoyed the history, and seeing it in real life. It was easy to walk around Rome, especially in comfortable shoes as the cobblestones could create havoc with heels! The weather in April was delightful, and did not take too much acclimatising. The river was a fabulous focus in photographs as were the buildings and ruins right around the city. There are many must do attractions - so choose which you wish to tour officially, and which you are fine to view from the outside. There are many water sources around the city, and the water is safe to drink, and tastes good too. There are many opportunities to feast around the restaurant, with traditional Italian having been my choice throughout - and the food was well prepared, presented and fairly reasonable in price.

So many things to see. However, lots of unsavoury people around. Very busy and recommend booking early slots to visit sights. Husband had phone taken out of buttoned pocket on underground - please try to avoid using it! Also be aware on buses, although we had no issues using them. It is worth a visit. Be safe!

Rome is a great short break location, lots of sights, masses of churches, loads of restaurants and bars/cafes/gelatos. Weather is amazing, people are very friendly and lovely. The only major downside is that there are no public toilets, (or none that we saw and we went to virtually every sight you could go to) thousands of people but no toilets, you have to use the restaurants and bars which can sometime be awkward if you are not purchasing anything from there. Major tourist attractions are the worst, especially if you are on a guided tour which works to time schedules. This was a major problem for us on the Collisseum tour as we started in the museum side which only had one female toilet for hundreds of queueing women, besides the small cafe' at the beginning. The min collisseum are was better with more toilets but they do not cater well for disabilities. Vatican was better. more toilets but still a very long queue.

Rome is beautiful so is Vatican City. Food excellent everywhere. Pizza Soo good. Lots of coffee shops everywhere. Not expensive at all. Will go again. Spanish steps the nicest spot for us. Train costs only 1 euro for 90 min ride. U must take the bus hop on hop off around the city to see everything and cost 24 euro for the green line.

Rome is a must see! Would recommend to have following in mind: - not in summer - definitely to hot in the city! - book around times in which are no big christian events take place (easter, christmas etc.) - book Vatican, Colosseum, Forum Romanum in advance with a guide! Worth the prices!
