Just returned from a week in Rome. Your vids proved invaluable. Many thanks. All your points were spot on. We wouldn't have had such a nice trip without your vids. We noticed that the better we dressed the less hassle we received from street venders. Possibly unsure if we were tourists or locals. just wanted to say thanks! Next trip...Israel.

The best 3 tips we got from our cruise operators: 1. The drinking water fountains - fill your bottles from these street fountains - no need to keep paying for bottled water. 2. Tickets for the Colosseum are also valid for the Forum and the Palatine Hill and visa versa - the queues for either of these places tend to be much shorter than at the Colosseum so buy your tickets at either place and walk straight past the queues at the Colosseum. 3. If you are travelling with children under 14 - entry to the Forum etc is half price providing you can prove their age - take their passport and ask for the cheaper tickets - don't ask, don't get! These 3 tips saved us many Euros and a stack of time as we didn't have to queue at all for the Colosseum - really important if you have limited time in this city.

just a little tip from a Roman follower: there's a local train from Fiumicino Airport to Tuscolana station (which is located in the south-eastern part of Rome, just 2 metro stops from San Giovanni). That's a lot cheaper than the 13 euros Leonardo Express (it costs 8 euros per person per trip) and the journey takes just a few more minutes.

Excellent advice! I lived in Rome for 27 years. Each time I go back to Rome on holiday, I take the train to Tuscolana and then take the underground at Ponte Lungo.

I am watching this myself and it says "No views" but there is 1 like and already a comment... I feel that KZread may be a little tricky with their numbers :) Big Roman Hug to You All!!

You are my kind of man. Talkative and able to speak non-stop and "you don't slip in the pocket for a word," as in Azerbaijani saying. But your speech is not tiring. Excellent tips for tourists. And thank you for warning about pick-pockets :DD

You have a great demeanor for presenting!! Thanks for all the tips dude

Anytime I have a trip booked i always look up videos for tips and helpful information regarding the place....every single time I end up seeing your videos for that place (Cancun, Rome etc) so thank you for all the help! You’re a wealth of worldwide knowledge!

We are just spending our last day in Rome & we prepared for our 7 day vacation here by watching all your videos & have had the BEST time!!! Your advice was completely spot on. Thank you!♥️

Great video, Rome was my first trip anywhere from Ohio when I was 31. I love Rome. My favorite sites were the the scavi tour under the Vatican, the colosseum, and the Borghese Gallery. Your videos are spot on with all the info we may need. Thank you

Day 3/5 in Rome, Italy and thanks for the videos. Last year was Greece and you helped out and this year you’ve done it again 🙌🏾

Thank you Wolters! Rome is truly captivating.❤️Everywhere you look is bursting with history and beauty. We visited the city during Spring as part of our DIY EUROTRIP video. The entire city is rich with art, sculpture and architecture. 🤩🤩🤩 Its like walking inside a huge museum. ❤️❤️❤️

Every time I travel anywhere, I always watched your videos on that specific place. Thank you so much Mark, I'm off to Rome on Thursday, and really looking forward to it. Keep up the good work :)

Perfect timing on this video! It looks like a lot of us will be going to Rome soon. I'm headed there in a week, so I have been rewatching all of your Italy videos to prepare.

What an informative narrative that gives you a well rounded understanding of what to expect. Thank you

So many good tips that you have in here that I take in and I love watching the background footage that you have I think I’ve watch this video three times.

I absolutely love your videos! I studied abroad in Italy and London this summer and watched a ton of your videos to make sure I was prepared and I love how you really just get straight to the point and explain things, it makes it so much easier to explain!

Great presentation, very clear sound and informative! Really enjoy your videos. 💕

Thank you Wolther, Rome is very greatest city in heart, and most most beautiful in the world, not other city comparison with Rome. Thank you dear friend.

I love Rome! And would love to go back. The history, the food, the fashion! ❤️ but... if I had to choose my favorite Italian city, it would have to be Florence. ❤️❤️ something about that city that just calls me. All of Italy is amazing and you can’t go wrong with any place to visit. The people are amazing and I just love the history. Pompeii was another amazing visit that I feel I need to do again cause after walking around for 8 hours there, I still didn’t see it all.

I LOVED Rome and Vatican City. I can't wait to go back. I did a pilgrimage tour but next I want to do a Foodie tour. The pilgrimage tour included hotel food that catered to the Americani and not representative of authentic Italian food. Florence and Assisi had the greatest examples of Italian hotel food. Thanks, Mark for all your great travel tips and advice.

Very Informative. The best video so far. Thanks.

Hi Wolter ,you are the best .Thank you for shearing this video .We need it ,we will visiting Rome soon

I truly enjoy watching your videos!! Thank you for giving so much useful information! 👍👍Visited Roma this June. Amazing city! Cannot wait to come back again.

I really love seeing all the family pics in this video!

I'm sure I've watched more than two videos from you. And I'm sure ucd watched said videos over and over. But the last two I watched, really came handy. I just spent 7 days in Marrakesh and now I'm in Rome! Thank you for your informative videos. I like how you record them while on sight.

Another great video full of useful information, thank you.

Love the video Mark! We went to Rome on our Honeymoon because we both love history so much and your video really helped us before we travelled so thank you for that. Just a quick question, what do you use for film and audio? Your videos are always such good quality 👍😁

We were there for 1 full day and we highly recommend the Segway tour. We would have never been able to see all that we saw in 2 days. 4 hour tour was like 70 US prepaid and our tour guide Roger was amazing!

Thank you so much. This video is so helpful 😊

This video was very useful. Thank you

Love your videos. Been to Milano. Florence. Naples and now at Rome. Thanks for great info 🍷

Thanks Mark. I can not wait to go back to Roma .. next week. I presume it is even better now ( coronavirus-few people)’we just came back from Venice and it was marvelous, just few people , super clean. Just lovely. I love Italy 🇮🇹❤️🙏🏻

Very informative. Thank You,

Am so excited watching this video thanks for making me like this love you 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

Great content as always Mark. I'm a big fan of your channel and planning a trip to either Rome or Paris (still trying to decide) for this year . Is May a good time visit Rome? I'm concerned about the weather. I would like to go when the weather is pleasant.

just came from Rome ! you are really on point - a lot of walking is expected !

Was there in August..loved it

Thank you for sharing such helpful tips. I truly appreciate it. I LOVE Rome, Italy and will definitely be visiting hopefully in the very near future. Fascinated with Rome since 14 years old. The architecture/arts are AMAZING. I would like to know if there are any Vegan restaurants. Any other tips will be greatly appreciated. I look forward to any other videos that you would like to share about this BEAUTIFUL ancient/historical city . Again, THANK YOU. May God continue to BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY! God bless!

The catacombs are awesome! I'd definitely recommend seeing at least one of them! Also the Scavi tour, where you go under St Peter's Basilica and walk through the ancient necropolis upon which the Vatican is built (but you do need to book months in advance!)

We were there 1st week of Sep. 18 and we absolutely loved it, everyone speaks English and people were friendly. I avoided public transportation all together and only moved around in Uber. For 10-12 euro it's not worth it to risk being pick pocketed that can ruin your vacation. ✌😉

Just adding a point about pick pocketing. I was "crowd crushed" whilst getting on a bus. And then I realised my back pack was wide open. I'm fanatical about making sure it's closed properly so I believe it was definitely a pick pocketing attempt.

Hi! Thanks so much for your very informative and entertaining vlogs. My husband and I are going on a Mediterranean cruise this September. It stops in Rome and so we will need to stay in a hotel in Rome for a few days and on to Venice. We’d like to know good hotels where we can stay in Rome and Venice, which are in the city center. Thank you so very much. Your vlogs help us gain more confidence in arranging our tour, so that we could enjoy the trip much better. Bless you and your beautiful family!!

Thanks Mark, always useful information. Rome looks fantastic.

OMG Mark, you are very lucky with your timing, Trevi Fountain was dry as a bone under maintenance between 24-27 September, which was the entire time I was in Rome. No words could have described my disappointment!

Thanks Mark. I visited Roma for the first time last December, a great time to be there. The Vatican was still crowded but easier to get in. I liked Rome a lot, but it didn't dislodge my favorite European cities: Paris, Prague, Tbilisi, Lyon and now Palermo.(I loved Palermo!) Rome seemed so dedicated to tourism that I couldn't crack it, the way I long ago did for Paris. Yes I saw the big sites. (Trevi Fountain should be renamed Selfie Fountain these days. But the Pantheon was incredible.) My favorite aspect of Rome was hunting down Bernini statues in out of the way churches. That brought things to life for me in much less touristic environments. And oh my the pizza I found while doing that! Walking! Yes. So much that I was glad to take an excruciatingly slow bus back to the Vatican area where my inexpensive hotel was located. The slow bus ride gave me a much needed break.I wish I had seen this then! Obviously this is the beginning of a new series. More please!
