I am a retired Flight Attendant after 40 years of service. I flew PHL to FCO for many years and loved it! I came across your videos by accident about a month ago. The first one I watched you walked right pass the Hotel I laid over at !!! Because of your video's I am able to sit at my computer with a glass of Italian wine and Anti Pasta . You have brought back so many wonderful memories of one of the Cities that is very special to me! I can also relate to how you record just you by yourself and see it from my point of view and not talk during the video. Thank you for your wonderful gift and see you again. Ciao my friend.......
Whoahhhh! So many people! We were there in November a couple years ago and it wasn't even a 1/10 of this. I guess people go when they can go. An amazing city though. Thanks for the walk. -H
I am a Roman citizen and world traveler, I am 55 years old. Every now and then I walk around the city and as usual I saw (especially in the area around St. Peter's Basilica) numerous unauthorized tour guides harassing tourists. They are easily recognisable, they have a fake authorization or faded identification card around their neck, they come from countries like India and Bangla Desh or from North Africa or Latin America but there are also some Italians, they offer tourist services. If I were a foreign tourist I would avoid listening to them. Plan your trip in advance and you will not need any unauthorized guide. If you need a tourist guide or generic tourist services, rely on official channels or someone who has at least an office and an address.
The crowds are because nearly everyone, sadly, goes to exactly the same places. Rome can accommodate more than a few thousand tourists, obviously, but not if they all stand at Trevi for half a day. If it doesn't stop, literally everything will soon require payment of an admission fee.
I went to Rome for the first time right after Europe opened back up to American tourists in 2021. The city was empty. I felt like I had it all to myself. I didn't at the time realize how lucky I was. These crowds are awful
Why wouldn't Rome be crowded right now? After all, it's 'high peak' traveling season and Rome is always one of the most popular European destinations, no??
Only like this around the major attractions. We were there last year in May. You won't be disappointed, Rome is incredible! Go at the end of August it won't be this crowded.
Visit the Keats-Shelley House/Museum and Keats grave at the Campo Cestio. Maybe tour the whole cemetery as other people are buried there and it is a beautiful place.
Why are there so many locks on the posts? I never noticed. Do most of the shops along the way sell "made in Italy" products? Trevi Fountain is always crowded. Impossible to get down to the bottom. I had Nutella gellito there that was so good. I just stood back and watched the crowd. Thanks for an enjoyable video. I always see something new along the way. It's so fun.🥰❤️
We were my wife and I in Rome second week of April 2024 the Fontana de Trevi it was crowded similar like this video well it was a wonderful experience this trip. Rome the eternal city
Purtroppo c'è troppa gente 😂. È un bene per i romani.dal punto di vista turistico ma è un male per i turisti che vorrebbero godersi meglio le attrazioni
Should rename the video with "Fontana di Trevi is crowded right now".... Which is always, because most of the tourists still visit Rome as they would visit Las Vegas... In 2024 they're still visiting the set of "Roman holiday" and not the city of Rome, neglecting the true gems.
How boring these insipid complaints are, compared to the magnificence of Rome... Wouldn't it be better to stay alone in your house, shuffling around between the bathroom, the TV, the fridge and the air conditioning...? It would also be a great alternative to mass tourism.
Le strade pavimentate ancora con i sampietrini fanno veramente schifo, senza contare molte facciate senza l' adeguata manutenzione e i graffiti sparsi ovunque. Manca una certa cura, una città dalla simile portata storica e artistica merita di meglio. Lo standard é più alto in quasi tutte le città europee, incluse quelle dell' Europa orientale.
I sanpietrini sono una pavimentazione antica e di pregio, che andrebbe tutelata al massimo. Magari qualcuno vorrebbe una colata d'asfalto anche nel centro storico. Questo tipo di commenti mette i brividi per l'ignoranza di chi li scrive. Che ci voglia MOLTA più cura e sorveglianza è lapalissiano.
