🇮🇹 Rome definitive guide of best places to eat, visit and sights seeing from a Roman
Luke Micheli
Available for hire
I'm from Rome. I lived in Rome for my first 27 years. I used to live 500 mt away from the San Peter basilica so my afternoon strolls were mainly in the city center getting lost in narrow streets.
I know where and how to show my city to my friends.
So many people asked me guidance so I've created this guide for this reason.
I'm a cook. I make my home pizza.
Don't be scammed by restaurants in front of nice places.
I'm listing here the best places to eat as a local.
Please DON'T be fooled by sh*tty tourist traps.
Eat where a local would go.
+ I'm a landscape photographer so you will find here the best spots for sightseeing the eternal city (I'm a romantic one).
++ You are getting some hidden gems a few tourists (and Romans) know about.
Are you read to live, breathe and explore the city like a roman would do?
This is ALL YOU NEED to visit Rome.
