Pre-COVID, did 6 guided tours with The Tour Guy (July 2019), way exceeded my expectations and really fell in love with Italy on a much deeper level. They are very professional and customer service is absolutely superb. Watch all of their videos to grab some cool, off the beaten path restaurants, hotels, experiences. You really get a better understanding of the history by going on a guided trip. In all my travels to Europe, I feel I have not experienced the country on this level.

This has to be one of the best Rome tour videos ever! Going there in May 2024 and I have been there so many times but these videos are both top pro level and entertaining! I have an ongoing romance with bella Roma and can not get rid of the itch!

Thanks for all the great videos --- especially the neighborhoods ones. I'm going to Rome in October --- my hotel is right next to the Spanish Steps. Wondering if that's too busy and maybe should reconsider Campo de Fiori or Piazza Navona areas instead? Traveling solo -- 76 --so not into the night life much anymore -- haha. Grazie mille!

The 2019 rule about the Spanish Steps.....love it. Now other people can enjoy the steps besides the street urchins blocking them all day.
Wow. Was looking into staying at Hotel Eden in April but the price is almost $2,300/night. A not too pricey for me.
We were in Rome and stayed at the Hassler. A month ago, we stayed at the code because it was new and, welp covid protocols.
Just to be precise, amatriciana is from Abruzzo. Amatrice itself has been part of Abruzzo until 1927.

For sure the touristy restaurants suck, but it's a double edge sword because the good places that locals eat at treat foreigners like crap. I play it safe and eat every meal at McDonalds. Everyone is equal, and the food is good each time.

I’m sorry for you that you feel that way. Sounds like you’ve had bad experiences. The more you travel, the more you open yourself up to good experiences. Please travel more as I promise you that not all local restaurants treat foreigners like crap.

I would have included Casina Valadier in this! An incredibly beautiful spot for dinner or drinks, sited at the entrance to the Borghese gardens, and you get a similar cross-city rooftop view to the Pincio view without having to jostle with other tourists. A limoncello at sunset on their balcony is one of the most lovely things you can do in Rome.

No matter how much time they spend in Italy, how much they engage with the locals, Americans refuse understandşng even the most basic local concepts like pronouncing the place and food names as if they are in American English. Teerameesou, Borgheezy, spaghiidy. You guys just don’t bother even listening to what those really sound like which to me is a subtle but serious type of disrespect.
