Let me know in the comments if I've missed any of your favourite Rome activities!
Every church I walked into while in Rome were incredible
There is one in specific that blow me away. Next to the mercato di fiori, it's identical to the Vatican and is empty.
I’m in the early phases of planning a trip to Rome next year and this was the most informative video on Rome I’ve seen yet.
Do a lot of preparation because 2025 is a Jubilee year. The city will be in gorgeous shape but will be packed like never before.
Love your video! We'll be going to Italy next summer (no choice, wife is a grade 6 teacher here in Montreal, QC) and I was taking notes while I was watching, and I also saved it to my favourites. Our plan is to land at FCO from YUL and spend 5 nights in Rome before moving on to the Naples Metropolitan area for another 5 nights (no details yet on that, still in planning stages), then we rent a car and drive up to Termoli for 3 nights so we can visit Larino, the comune where my paternal grandfather was born, which is 25 minutes away. After that we will drive to Fiumicino and drop the car off and spending out last night there before flying back to Montreal the next day.
My wife found an interesting 3 day itinerary for Rome, and we already have a strategy for visiting the sites. Go super early, and come back to our Airbnb when the people from the cruise ships come and play tourist. Have lunch and go back once they're back on their ships and visit the piazzas in the evening when they're less crowded.
Thank you for another wonderful video Christina. Really well done, especially on the pronunciation of the names of places. Huge kudos for that.
Thank you so much!! I’ve been taking Italian lessons on Babbel so I treated it as practice 😂😂
thanks so much for you highlights list and the interactive map. I have downloaded it for future reference. I was happy to see that most of the must visits on my list were covered by your vided. Again thanks for posting.
Sempre sempre Roma sempre sempre 😊
most informative concise video I’ve seen about Rome, thank you for the tips! I’m going in 2 days and you’ve helped me plan my visit ❤
Honestly, I thought the Vittoriano (or Altare della Patria) was incredible. Photos don't do it justice. I can imagine what the Colosseum, with it's gleaming white marble, must have looked like back in the day when I see the Vittoriano.
I’m going to Rome in July and your videos are amazing. Nicely paced and lovely. Thank you
Piazza Navona is my absolute favorite place to sit with a scoop of gelato and people watch. 😊
Oh and if you have time a day trip to Capri is highly recommended! An absolute fantastic experience! Something I will definitely do again.
Excellent video, thank you
Hi… You do the most informed and well thought out videos! You are the best… Thank you for all the informative content that you put into all of your videos! 👍🙌🙋♀️🫶🏻
I agree that the Vatican Museums are super-packed to the point of unpleasant, but it is pretty much the only way to see the Sistine Chapel. Get your Vatican Museums tickets in as far in advance as possible, as they sell out early. If you are on the Aventine Hill, you can't miss Santa Sabina, remarkable for its state of preservation from the 5th century.
You’re a life saver
I was in Rome last month and the pasta was SOOOO good. I had bucatini all'amatriciana twice and mezzi paccheri alla carbonara. I swear I would fly down for a weekend just to eat the food. 😅
Any locations / cafes recommended?
Thanks!
You’re very welcome!!! Thanks so much for the super 🫶
Im going to rome in 2 months, Thank you.
Thank for the great information. BTW what times do all the city bells ring together, is it at noon?
Lovly Italy , me wife is from Pescara
Ah no kidding!!! I will actually be passing through there on the train tomorrow haha. I love Italy!
very details, thank you so much !
I think I gained 10 lbs when in Rome . What in the world is this @1:28 I missed that one (which is fine by me). But I tried every kind of aged wine pizza and cheese (wow).
Question:
I am going to visit Italy soon in October for the first time with my husband. We are seniors. I a bit anxious.
Which local tour companies you recommend? I heard there are golf cart tours. What companies manage them?
and how do I visit some of the places you mentioned in this video if I would like to go by myself?
should I go by taxi ? for example if I want to come back from the Borghese to my hotel, would there be a taxi stand there or I should call the taxi company.
Is there colosseum night tour for June 2024? I can’t find it anywhere to book
Thx for your videos. Very informative. Can u please suggest a private transfer from Rome city to Port Civitavecchia? Is CabRoma good and reliable?
Nice video
I’ll be there in October for only 2 days before I start my cruise back to the States, any suggestions?
Hey i saw that rome is in repairs but you dont show that in the vid, is that true?
If you were to do a 2 week Italy trip, how many days would you allocate for Rome? 😅
Walking in circles early in the morning. Not drinking good though 🛌😝
What night tour of the Colosseum did you do ?
7:30 *other* left! 🙄
What kind of chicken pasta can i order i dont eat pork or sea food
I thought the Vatican Museums was worth it with a guide but OMG it was CROWDED. Even so, it's almost impossible to get tickets. The Sistine Chapel, though impressive, was just impossibly crowded. There were at least 500 people in there so it was a disappointment.
Bad news Christina.. you threw the coins over your right shoulder not your left... Now you have to go back and fix it lol.
Well if you have to back if you accidentally threw it over your right shoulder, it also worked.
Is McDonald’s paying you?
Wash your own dishes
Hello, What is the name of the rooftop bar in your intro to the video? It shows a Ferris wheel like drink holder with 5 shit glasses. Thank you !
