[quote=Anonymous]We came back yesterday, it was hot and crowded but still fantastic. For train,s I had booked business class, all private taxi transfers from train station/airports to Airbnb, I threw money at the problems and it made things smooth. In Rome, we stayed in Piazaa Navona and walked everywhere, for Vatican and Colosseum we took taxi and it was very easy to get hold of one. Private tour of the Vatican, 8 group tour for Colosseum, private tour for St. Marks in Venice, private tour of David + Uffizi+ Duomo and other highlights in Florence. Private tour was money very well spent, the context and background they can share and describe is unimaginable, sure the crowds are still there but it's a lot easier to follow. As I said, we threw a lot of money at the issues but bookings were done well in advance. Typically,Started early in the morning and came back to our apartment by 1:30 pm and then stepped out again around 6:00 pm and stayed out until 11:30. Roaming the streets of Rome and Florence at late in the night when everyone was out enjoying dinner and gelato was my favorite part, such beautiful energy and no heat. If I can suggest one thing to spend money on, that would be buying business class in trains, it makes for a super comfortable and pleasent journey. In Florence, I would really recommend Le Volte for a good florentine steak, they are a family of butchers who bring best cuts to serve at their restaurant. In Venice, please try Sphagetti Aglio Olio e Peperoncino, it is pasta at it's best. Good luck and enjoy your trip! [/quote]
