Rome is a big city that is very crowded and very historic. A must see. On your first go round, we recommend the open air 110 bus. 13 Euros per person and you can ride it all day. Get on and get off when ever and where ever you want. Takes you to all of the sights and it is a good way to go. We stayed the first and last days in Rome and the 110 open air bus was just blocks away from our hotels - The Star Hotel Michaelangelo and the Visconti Palace. |

If you are wanting to see the Vatican be sure to get advanced tickets. Since that is a very famous sight and at the top of EVERYONE'S list, see about getting an organized tour so you can get in the guided tour entrance. The Sistine chapel is a must - words can't describe it and no photograph can do it justice. See it for yourself and with your own eyes - even if you are butt to elbow with 16,924 other tourists. |

On your last night in Rome, be sure to throw 3 coins in the Tevi
fountain. 1 coin to return to the eternal city, 1 coin for your love
and 1 coin for your own wish.
