You will soon see why city breaks to Rome remain one of the world’s top tourist hotspots, other world famous attractions include the home of the Pope – the walled Vatican City, the awe-inspiring Spanish Steps, and the magnificent Trevi fountain.

Eating, drinking and shopping on your Rome breaks
Short Rome breaks are excellent for shopping, whether in the glamorous boutiques of Piazza di Spagna, the more bohemian winding streets of Trastevere, or even the famous Sunday flea market Porta Portese. Another great way to spend your holiday in Rome is by getting lost in the cobbled streets, amongst Rome’s unspoilt historic buildings, to explore the lesser known sights; you’ll find majestic 17th century squares and beautiful parks built by Italian aristocracy, not to mention the countless gelaterias and pizzerias. After your busy day of sightseeing you’ll find something to suit everyone in the evenings; relax and people watch in a piazza, enjoy mouth-watering Italian cuisine or try out the delicious local Mediterranean wine in one of the many bars. Rome features a lively nightlife; wander round the city and you’ll see attractions like the Spanish Steps spectacularly lit up.
