The Rome Guide >

With so much written about Roma you are going to have vast amounts of information on what to see and where to go.  So we are not going to repeat what you will find in your Lonely Planet or Fodors Guide.  Rather we want you to find the boutique hotel, designer store, funky bar and locals restaurant. 

When you are in Rome you should always spend plenty of time in the many Piazza where you will find amazing architecture and the beauty that makes this the eternal city.  Of course that means a visit to see the majesty of the Vatican which is face an amazing place for people watching even if you are not a believer or not keen to see Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘Last Supper‘ masterpiece it is still worth getting a ticket for the Dan Brown mystique of the place but do go early to avoid the crowds.
