@kelseyinlondon 🇮🇹 9 Best things to do in Rome ⬇️ 🛵 1. Vespa Tour – experience Rome like a local by whizzing through its historic streets on a classic Vespa. I did a 3-hour tour and we saw all the main landmarks (Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon & so much more). DM me for a tour link! 💐2. Spanish Steps – climb the famous 135 steps to enjoy a panoramic view across Rome. If you visit during late April you will witness the steps covered with hundreds of azalea flowers. 🍝 3. Lunch at Da Enzo al 29 – you’ll find the best carbonara at this beloved trattoria in Trastevere. Understandably, it gets busy so I recommend queuing up 20 minutes before they open at 12.15pm 🏛️ 4. Colosseum – step back in time with a visit to this ancient amphitheater where gladiators once fought. I recommended booking a guided tour with skip-the-line access so you can learn more about its history. 🍹5. Oro Bistrot Rooftop Bar – sip on a spritz while breathtaking views of Rome’s skyline from this chic rooftop bar, reservations are necessary if you don’t want to miss out. 🏡 6. Explore Trastevere – wander through the charming, narrow streets of this vibrant neighbourhood, known for its lively nightlife, quaint boutiques, and delightful eateries. 🍫 7. Self-guided tiramisu tour – sample some of the best tiramisu in Rome by visiting these locations: Pompi, Two Sizes and Mr. 100 Tiramisu. ⛲️ 8. Trevi Fountain – come here at sunrise to beat the crowds and recreate your Lizzie McGuire coin toss moment without the crowds. 🌳 9. Villa Borghese – take a stroll through this serene park, home to beautiful gardens, a tranquil lake, and the impressive Galleria Borghese art museum. Want more recommendations?
