As an aside, if you ever visit Rome take an hour train ride to Ostia Antica. It is the ruins of an entire port town, complete with a tile mural where the baths were and stone seating for a forum. It is about a mile square and you have full reign to wander and explore it with hardly anyone else around.
- the_af 7y agoI'm looking for excuses to visit beautiful Italy -- and Rome! -- once again, so I'll make a note of this. I also find the history of Rome (and of Italy too, actually) fascinating. Thanks!
- mongol 7y agoYes this is really worthwhile. After a few days of the tourist city life I always want to get out for some relaxing experiences, which this daytour provides. Also it is not far to continue for a short swim in the Mediterranean.
- walterstucco 7y agoGreat advice! One of my favourite spots in the world! And if you're like you can catch some concert in the amphitheatre. This year Kraftwerk are going to play there, it's a fantastic venue, I've seen a lot of shows there, among the others Sonic Youth, Jethro Tull, Siouxsie, Mars Volta, Morrissey, Mogwai and many others and it's always been magical.
