Activities & Attractions
Colosseum
•
The best ticket option is "Full Experience (Underground and Arena)". This ticket allows you to walk out onto the arena *like a gladiator* and tour the area below. The Colosseum is also one of the seven wonders of the world, so be prepared to be impressed!
Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps & Pantheon
•
There are tons of historic sites in Rome. While the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps are open to the public, you will need tickets to the Pantheon. We really enjoyed grabbing a drink and sitting by the fountain as the sun beamed down on us-nothing more Italian, except the pasta restaurants surrounding it!
Vatican City & Sistine Chapel
•
Visit a different country within Rome by visiting Vatican City! This place truly is incredible and worth a visit every time!
Hotel De La Ville
•
Right beside the Colosseum, this hotel is elegant and has the perfect location. Views from their bar "The Court" are some of the best in Rome.
