Rome

Rome is a busy and touristy city. The first time I visited Italy I was so overwhelmed it took away from my experience. I prepared this guide to help you have a more enjoyable trip!

Colosseum

@jordansowell

Obviously when in Rome! But instead of rushing to see the Colosseum with the crowds wait until the evening and book a nighttime tour!

Unfortunately tickets are limited for the Colosseum in the evenings, if your date is booked check out a 3rd Party tour group. Note, these are slightly more expensive and have different meeting spots. Communicate and confirm the meeting spot with your guide multiple times the day of if possible!

Tuscany

@jordansowell

Traveling from Rome to Tuscany will be an all-day excursion, but it's worth your time if you are a wine lover! This tour is awesome because it includes tours of historic sights, lunch, and wine!

This tour is a splurge but the flexibility of a private tour may be worth it.

Al 34

@jordansowell

This is a must-eat place! Enjoy traditional Roman food in a cozy restaurant. The atmosphere is fun and only a 2-minute walk to the Spanish stairs. Order the Gnocchi Trufado!

Hi! I am Jordan an East Coast Girl (Philadelphia) living in Southern California (San Diego). I have always loved planning travel whether it’s a group trip with friends or a couple of weeks in Europe; I know a curated itinerary can level up any vacation! And while I enjoy nature and cities, Michelin-star restaurants and dive bars, bed and breakfasts, and Five-star hotels; I believe everyone’s vacation should fit their wants & needs. Having unique experiences in the areas of travel I am most interested in have been some of the best memories I have made. Now I want to help others gain special experiences during their travels.
