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. Alternatively after the sun sets, why not 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 short 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 Roman history. You can whisk your loved ones away to visit Vatican City, the home of the Pope and explore the wonders of its museum whilst you’re there. 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. Because of this and its vast size, the Colosseum has a true air of magnificence that cannot be missed during trips to Rome.

Trips to Rome are also great ideas for Stag and Hen parties. The activities that are available for a stag party range from sport and adventure (including the more conventional 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 being filled with a variety of entertaining activities for your group, Rome is also home to hundreds of trendy bars that can be sure 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. Famous for its sheer volume of restaurants and pizzerias (over 1,000), Rome offers 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 those who are up for trying new things, why not step into a local cafe and ask for a portion of tiramisu. However, for those who tend to stick with what they know, there is something to be said for their gelato (Italian ice cream). It doesn’t matter how adventurous you are when it comes to food, there is something for even the fussiest of people in this beautiful city.

Whether you are intending to visit Rome as a couple, as a family or even as a group, there are many travel companies that are able to provide package deals for you to make your break perfect. These deals can be tailored to your needs, enabling you to do what you want, when you want. After all, “when in Rome...”
