Visit Rome for the Perfect Break
Known as the Eternal City, Rome is the perfect destination for a romantic break or maybe even a honeymoon. The city offers a wide range of activities for those who love to rekindle the romance. For instance, why not take a horse-drawn carriage ride through the streets of Rome, stopping only to indulge yourselves in some aphrodisiacal treats, such as delicious handmade chocolates. And then that night, treat yourselves to a serenaded, candlelit dinner along the famous Tiber. As the capital of Italy, Rome has so much to offer a couple who are looking to make their city break a special one.
But as well as romance, Rome has many other delightful things to offer. Filled to the brim with history and religion, and spectacular reminders of the immensely powerful Roman Empire, Rome can be the perfect place if you wish to take your family away for a lesson in European cultures. Why not visit the Pope and take your family to Vatican City, popping in to explore the wonders of its museum? Another place that must be visited, purely for the wow-factor, is the Colosseum; you and your loved ones will be extremely in awe when you look at its marvellous construction. In ancient times, Emperors would use the Colosseum as a venue to hold a variety of games, used to please and entertain their public. More famously, it was used to hold outrageously ferocious fights to the death between gladiators and sometimes between gladiators and wild exotic animals. The magnificence of the Colosseum means that it must be visited during any trips to Rome.
Trips to Rome are also great ideas for Stag and Hen parties. For a stag party, activities range from sport and adventure (including go-karting, quad biking and target shooting) to alcohol-based activities such as beers tours and wine tasting. For hen parties, the activities available can include pampering days, afternoon tea sessions and the incredible shopping opportunities. As well as this variety of activities, hundreds of trendy bars can also be found within Rome, guaranteeing to keep your night going for longer.
But no trips to Rome can be complete without experiencing true Italian food, arguably the best food in the world. Its sheer volume of restaurants and pizzerias (over 1,000) means that Rome can offer a huge range of freshly made food varying from seafood to pasta and from succulent meat to international cuisine. And of course, who can forget about those famous Italian desserts. For the more adventurous out there, why not order a portion of Italy’s famous tiramisu? However, for those who tend to stick with what they know, there is something to be said for their gelato (Italian ice cream). When it comes to food in Rome, there is something for everyone; even the fussiest of us.
Whether you are intending to visit Rome as a couple, as a family or even as a group, there are many companies that are able to provide package deals for you to make your break perfect. The deals are customized to suit your needs, so that you can do whatever you want, whenever you want. After all, “when in Rome…”
