Rome City Experience

2nd-time traveler Catherine, traveled in Apr 2024

I was a bit apprehensive about exploring without a fixed tour but I found that I quite enjoyed the free time. Even though some of the tours were cancelled, I managed to see most of the sites I had hoped to visit in Rome and got to see some amazing unplanned sites too.

A fantastic journey

1st-time traveler Inez, traveled in Oct 2023

Rome is amazing. Our accommodations were good. Hotel was clean, food was good and no issues with service. There is a lot of walking everyday. Literally miles of walking but every step is worth it. If you’re prepared with good walking shoes, and a water bottle it will be great!...
