Rome

Visit the Eternal City of Rome

Rome; the eternal city and capital of Italy, is always popular as a tourist destination for global travellers. With its incredible natural beauty and majestic structures of the past, this enchanting city offers an impressive blend of the old and new.

When to visit

When you decide to travel to Rome will depend on what you want to see and do. If you prefer the quiet, spring days during Lent when a visit to the Vatican is a must; or the warm summer months when the streets of Rome are filled with exuberant travellers, or even the cold Christmas days when the ski slopes are open….whenever you decide to travel there is something for you in Rome.

Where to visit

Rome is a travellers’ delight with a satisfying number of places to visit. Go on a guided tour of the stunning natural wonder of Rome’s most famous cave; the Grotte di Frasassi. Wander among the remains of the still impressive centuries old Colosseum, or slow down the pace with a leisurely stroll through the Renaissance works of art at Rome’s famous Uffizi Galleria.  Wherever you visit, the Eternal City will more than meet your expectations.

What to do

There is so much for you to do when you travel to Rome that one visit may not be enough. During the warm summer days, you can spend some time at your hotel’s swimming pool, or book a day trip to one of the beaches just outside the capital city.  Go boutique shopping along the Via Condotti for the latest in high end clothes and accessories, or peruse the more bargain friendly stores along the Piazza Venezia.  At night, attend the opera at the Verona Arena or join the young ones for a rousing night of live music at one of the city’s modern day clubs.

What to eat

When you travel to Rome, expect some of the best Italian food you will ever have. Hang out at a trattoria and try an antipasto; an appetizer made of meats, olives and mushrooms. For a true Italian meal, book a table at one of the city’s restaurants and order some Tortellini, an Italian dish of pasta packed with meat and cheese, and remember gelato makes everything better.
