History enthusiast or not, it’s impossible not to be blown away by the sheer number of unique sights Rome has. 2500 years of stunning architecture, culture and religion are compacted into this city, from the marvels of the Colosseum, the Roman forum and Pantheon to the spectacular St. Peter’s Square, Vatican and the Trevi Fountain. You’ll get to view some of the most iconic structures in the world, in the birthplace of Western Civilization.
Don’t overdo it though! Immerse yourself in the italian lifestyle by doing things at your leisure, stopping for freshly made pasta and straight-out-the-oven pizza on every corner, accompanied by a glass of great-value wine or beer. And, like a local, spend your evenings in one of the lively clubs and bars dotted around the city. When in Rome!
