| Thinking of a trip to Tuscany with our teenage sons over spring break, I'm guessing pools won't be open but thinking they would still have fun visiting the towns and having some outdoor time - we are starting h. Rome. Any experience / advice? |

Hi, you should go for it. Italy is a beautiful country and I actually currently live in Rome.
In Rome, I'm sure your family will enjoy visiting the Colosseum and the Pantheon. Also the famous St Peters and the Vatican with the Sistine chapel is a must see. What is great about Rome is most of the museums are free entry. These museums contain everything from ancient sculpture to modern art, so there is something for everyone to enjoy. The Galleria Borghese is a good one to visit but you have to book online and this one is quite famous so there is a charge. Rome is also blessed with good weather so spring time should be milder than other parts of Europe. Italians love their pasta and pizza, so I'm sure you will get to eat plenty if you don't mind. Try and check out online reviews on Restaurants before you visit or get recommendations from your hotel concierge as there are some wonderful family run restaurants that are not so visible holidaymakers. One advice I should give you though is if you stay in the center of Rome, do be vigilant with your purses and bags as unfortunately pick pocketing can be an issue. Apart from that I think you will certainly enjoy your visit here. All the best. |
