Safety

WATER

SIGHTSEEING

Rome is a safe city. There isn't much crime because all the police and Carabinieri are here to protect politicians, but there are still pickpockets in crowded places. Be particularly careful at Trevi Fountain, and on public transportation.

VATICAN STATE

The Vatican is quite conservative regarding clothes, so remember to cover your upper shoulders, don't wear shorts or short skirts.

BEST SHOPPING

Native Romans go shopping in the same areas of the tourists, such as Spanish Steps, via Cola di Rienzo, via Ottaviano or along via Nazionale.

The water coming out of the little fountains around the city is safe to drink! The water is brought here from the mountain springs just outside Rome.

SYNAGOGUE

The synagogue can be visited every day except on Saturdays, but you can’t take pictures inside.

BEST FOOD

Usually you won't find the best restaurants in the main squares and tourist attractions, but just around the corner, in the sidewalks and narrow streets. Your tour guide can suggest you the best places.

Best way to sightseeing: it is to rent a car with driver and a tour guide. You'll see more in a comfortable way. You'll need 2 half days to see the highlights!

MUSEUMS

Remember that most of the museums around Italy are closed on Mondays

BEST EXHIBITIONS

You can find the best exhibitions all the year around except on August. The best are in the Scuderie del Quirinale

FLEA MARKETS

The most important are every morning expect Sundays in via Sannio (S. Giovanni metro stop line A) and every Sunday morning in Porta Portese (Pyramid metro stop line B).
