Privat biltransfer från Siena till Rome

Your trip will start in Siena, best known for hosting the Palio horse race. Then, you will travel south, with options to stop at landmarks along the way.

One of your stops could be Florence. This city is touted as the birthplace of the Renaissance. Here, you may also take snapshots of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Michelangelo’s “David” at the Galleria dell’Accademia.

Returning to the main route, you can visit the towns of Orvieto and Montepulciano. Orvieto is renowned for its ancient underground tunnels, while Montepulciano is famous for its delectable wines.

No one could ever forget about its world-famous pasta and gelato. The mix of art, ruins, and street life makes Rome a traveler’s favorite.

While in Rome, be sure not to miss these sights:

• Colosseum
• Trevi Fountain
• Pantheon
• Roman Forum
• Piazza Navona
• Castel Sant’Angelo
• St. Peter’s Basilica
• Sistine Chapel

Now, here’s something interesting about Rome. Did you know that the city today has 280 fountains and more than 900 churches? Moreover, hundreds of euros worth of coins are tossed into the Trevi Fountain each year, the proceeds of which are then donated to a charity to help those in need.

If you believe that malls are a new thing, think again. Emperor Trajan built the first covered shopping mall in history in Rome during the 100s AD. And would you believe it but Rome has a museum dedicated entirely to pasta.

All of this is credited to Rome’s glorious past. Its history spans over 2,500 years, beginning as a small city-state in 753 BCE. It then grew to be a vast republic before becoming an empire that ruled the Mediterranean. Key periods in its history include the Roman Republic and the Imperial Rome. The city profoundly influenced the laws, politics, and cultures across Europe and the world.

Stay vigilant. Rome is notorious for having pickpockets in crowded areas. Carry a small bag that you can wrap around the front of your body where you’ll keep your valuables. Be sure to also pack your passport and tickets with you as well

Bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated. It’s also smart to carry a basic first aid kit, especially if you’re traveling with kids. Lastly, learning basic Italian phrases such as "Grazie" (Thank you) and "Per favore" (Please) can go a long way.

Embark on a gourmet adventure

Italians love bonding with family and friends over food. Some of the world’s most famous foods and drinks are in this country—plates of pasta, pizzas, risottos, gelatos, and wines, just to name a few.

Lounge in Rome’s squares

Rome’s squares, popularly known as piazzas, are a trending attraction. Visit Piazza Venezia, where the statue of Victor Emanuel II is, or sip a cappuccino in Piazza di Spagna, which is near the Trinita dei Monti Church and the Spanish Steps.
