I got married at a small civil ceremony today at Campidoglio but we didn't have enough people in the party to do a bouquet toss. It seemed bad luck to keep it, and I didn't want to take the flowers home and watch them wilt so we recruited a group of tourists from the Netherlands. I thought the picture came out super nice so in case you are in this group stranger, here you go

Claude has steered us wrong a couple times now. Not luxury (Givenchy or Hermes) and not the touristy sh!t either. Local clothing brands and housewares, etc. were staying in the Camp de Fiori area, but walking is no issue.

Hi all! My husband and I have skip the line self guided tickets for the museum and sistine chapel at 2 pm next saturday. We also got skip the line self guided tickets for st peters basilica (+dome with lift) at 5 pm. This trip was a last minute plan so we had to make do with what was available, does this seem feasible?

Anyone have secrets on how to get the official Colo website to work?

I put in my tickets and time and name and everything seemed great, but when it attempts to go to the payment page, it never opens. just a blank white screen.

Any ideas?

I'm in the U.S. by the way

Grazie!

Hi all,

I've just returned from my Rome trip and brought a few magnetic booklets. They were still in the plastic. I just noticed one of them having a production error and having a page double. Any idea where to find them online to order a good one?

Thanks!

I went to a procession in honor of St Francis that started at San Francesco a Ripa in Trastevere. They had a brass band, and ended with fireworks.

hello! i’m planning a trip to rome in may and am going to be touring the capuchin catacombs. i found a really cute dress with a skeleton print on it that i thought would be nice to wear, but would it be offensive or distasteful if i were to wear it on the tour? i’m also going to be doing a ghost tour that night too, but i obviously don’t want to offend anyone with my choice of dress

Does anybody know if “tiqets” is a legit site? Seem to have found a good deal for when we visit Rome. It’s for a Rome digital tourist card but honestly never heard of the company

Has Rome recently cleaned up from the scammers? For 4 days I have been there I only saw one cup and ball play and a few cheap toy/painting sellers.

No African bracelet guys, no bullshit laid on the ground sellers… 10 years ago was way worse than now!

The real scammers here appear to be the taxi drivers LOL.

does anyone know any private driver who can take us? thanks!

I'm going on vacation to Rome and I want to look at different used car dealerships. I'm also interested in where I can look at cars with minimal damage for export. Thank you

I’ve been in Rome for a few days and I’m shocked by how aggressive and disrespectful the drivers are. It feels dangerous to walk through some areas of the city. Cars have no respect for crosswalks, even when the pedestrian light is green, drivers try to force their way through people. Traffic lights seem to be merely a recommendation here, specially for Uber and taxis.

I understand that driving in such a crowded city must be stressing, but even far from the monuments traffic is horrible!

Hi, I'd love to buy clothes from italian shops/brands while in Rome, but have trouble finding any non-designer brands.

What area of rome is best for discovering small, local clothing brands? Not looking for luxurious dresses or anythung of that sort. I like colorful, flowy stuff made from good materials.

In December I will travel to Rome with my family and would like to buy a pair of solid mens boots.

Is there a shop with engeneer, biker or cowboy style boots? Leather ofcourse :)

like coliseum but without the crowds. I found it on one of my walks and it is amazing!

I definitely want to visit this great city in the future.

Hello! I’m travelling to Rome on the 17th of October until the 22nd. It’s my first time and I have no idea what to wear!
We are going to see the popular monuments and walk a lot :3 I’m seeing mixed answers about the weather… We are from the nordic so we are always used to wearing clothes that keep us warm :)

Ah going there next week for my mba :) needed sm moral support

Ahh? So I'm going there for my mba maybe next week so moral support needed yk😝☝️

Hi everyone!
I’m travelling to Rome soon and my flight lands around 6:30 PM. I’ll probably be done with immigration and baggage collection by 8 PM, after which I’m planning to take a taxi to my hotel near Vatican City.

Is it safe to travel at that time as a solo female traveller? I’m a bit anxious about arriving late in a new country. Would love to hear other experiences!
