Rome Tours - Tips and Guides(Private or/and Guided)

Rome, also known as the Eternal City and the capital of Italy is the 11th most-visited city in the world and the most preferred tourist attraction in Italy. It is said of the allurement of the city that one can live here a lifetime and not see enough! Of course that does not mean you have to lose out on the awe-inspiring sites; which is why there are numerous types of Rome tour packages you can select from: from tailored and/or private walking tours’ to ‘bus tours’, or to ‘guided tours’, all conformed to your convenience.

Rome walking tours: Rome is a great city for walking. You must allow yourself enough time to just wander to enable yourself to experience what the Romans call "la bella città" or “The beautiful city”! There’s nothing like witnessing the Eternal city in the early evening, immersed in the dusky Italian sunset by taking to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, the Palentine Hill and Contantine’s Arch. Other popular sights you MUST take to/check out include the Colosseum, Vatican City, Vatican museum and Gardens.

Rome bus tours: Hop-on and hop-off as you like with the open top bus tours; choosing between a more northern route going past the Borghese Gallery and Piazza del Popolo or to the more central part of Rome going past the Quirinale while running alongside the Tiber. You do not need to fear losing out on the sights by picking one over another as the routes criss-cross and run next to each other at various points, where you can change from one route to the other as and when you want.

Rome guided tours: Expert-guided tours, with native English-speaking guides are another very enjoyable option for people who want to hear the inside stories of the most popular sites and museums. Believe me, having an Italian-speaking friend or reading a guide book will help you to an extent but you don’t know what you lose out on until you experienceone of these expert-guided tours for the most complete history and stories. They are not referred to as ‘experts’ for no reason!
