Review:
Coming to Rome, be prepared for a total sensory overload. The entire city is a living, breathing museum.
Everything around you is thousands of years old, from the cobblestones you walk on to the massive fountains and ancient stone houses that line the narrow streets.
There is so much beauty all around you that it is difficult to take it all in, especially if you are trying to cram all Rome has to offer in a few days: the Vatican, St. Peter's Square, St. Peter’s Basilica and eighteen additional basilicas, the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Colosseum, Piazza Navona, Roman Forum, Aquaducts, Catacombs, and so much more.
And then there is Via Veneto with all its fabulous shops, small gellaterias, and trattorias with aromas that pull you in from miles away. As you sit in one of the fabulous outdoor cafes on Piazza Navona, you have to wonder how anyone can get any work done with so much beauty all around.
