Just an FYI but avoid gelato or anything with giant English signs and menus – they are for tourist and overpriced

Its beautiful that u want to make the most of what u saw during ur trip in Rome, but please make sure, when u talk about a city thats not urs, that u actually talk about the main places… like the Colosseo, circo massimo, campo de fiori, pantheon … just to name a few. And U talk about gelateria della palma, which is far from being good…. 🙂
Thank you so much for this video!! I am traveling to Rome by myself and this video made me have more direction on where to go and what to do (-:
Basilica means basilica. Chiesa means church.
Thank you for the video. We are going to Rome this summer and only have 3 full days to explore. This was very helpful.
thx! and nice music!
well, perhaps a bit more background: santa maria del popolo has two great Caravaggios and was even visited by Luther before he converted. Also Bernini, etc etc.
Were they weird about people of color visiting?
My family and I are going in the spring 2019. Great vid!
what does piazza mean??
Nice video! Here a walking tour postcard along patheon, trevi's fountain and spanish step https://youtu.be/lRequ0ZB148
No colosseum? Great video tho
Kinda incomplete I can say, you didn't even mention Colossuem or Fonta Di Trevi or the Ancient Rome Forum or the Palatine Hill.
Sorry but that's not a Rome travel guide.
I’m currently reading the book As the Romans Do and piazza has been mentioned several times. Thanks for the clarification.
Well done video, thank you.
