In Italian the stairway is called "Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti" which can be translated as "Stairway to the Church of the Holy Trinity of the mountain", referring to the Church that stands at the top of the stairway. The English denomination "Spanish Steps" derives not from where the staircase leads, but from where the staircase starts, the "Piazza di Spagna" or Square of Spain, which owes its name to the fact that in the 17th century it housed the Embassy of the Kingdom of Spain to the Holy See. Sometimes the explanation lies upside down. I loved your video!

Leonardo Express train from Fiumicino airport takes you to Termini (main train station in Rome center) in half an hour for $14. Big plus that all other public transport lines meet right here too!
Absolutely love this guide for exploring Rome in 3 days! So helpful for planning my upcoming trip. Can't wait to experience all the must-see attractions and soak in the beauty of the Eternal City.
I stayed one block from the Trevi Fountain....in 2017.....and visited at 3am....Fountain to myself and partner.....alone....with only a parked police car on the street.

Thanks for all the info. Going there with my son, daughter in law, grandson and granddaughter. We'll be there five days. Think we'll get to see all the major stuff. Thanks again 😄
Loved everything about this vlog! Thank you for all the pro tips and for sharing your perspective as well. We're planning to travel to Rome, Italy in November.
Very informative video :) . One question though. You said that book your tickets to St Peter Basillica in advance. Isn't it free? or is this line just for entrance? Also the skip the line ticket for Vatican museum, did you purchase that online or on the site itself?
I stopped the video when she said Trevi looks like Vegas. Even giggling like its funny and not one of the saddest testaments to a difference between Europe and USA.
I'm visiting Rome and Florence in December and learnt a lot from this video. Thanks for your super-useful tips! The presentation and editing are also excellent.
I went to Italy with a group back in 2016 loved it went in May already hot very touristy in Rome lots of lines long lines we also visited Sorrento, Capri Island and Pompeii which was amazing to see we did a rustic farmhouse tour with wine tasting and dinner it was so delicious amazing experience beautiful farmhouse so much fun definitely recommend going on shoulder or off season to avoid heavy crowds I love Italy so much to see and do I have yet to explore Venice, Tuscany region next on my list will definitely go off season to really see and enjoy it.
What is audio guide is it something you got there or something you downloaded I'm getting ready to go in April and I'm trying to figure all this out great video of yours
For Pantheon? They give you a audio device, so you don’t need to download anything on your phone. I think it was extra 5 euros for the audio guide, but it was worth it! I’m glad to hear my videos were helpful, happy travels!
Fully agree on staying in the centre, especially if you have only a few days. For me, Pantheon area is the best. On airport taxis, I had been caught out by taxi strikes a few times, so arranged for a private transfer for my last visit (just skip 3-4 meals to cover the cost).

Hello! I have questions pls, travelling from SFO to Rome in may and we will be there early around 7am. Did your hotel allow you for early check-in and were able to leave the bags early? Bec since we'll arrive ealy, we'll plan to check out places early too but don't know where to leave our luggages. Your response will be greatly appreciated..
Sure, happy to answer that question! Our hotel allowed us to leave our luggage in the morning. They don’t have a lobby or a receptionist, so please make sure to communicate about your early arrival when you book. Also, there will be a city tax that’s, I believe, less than 20 euros that you need to pay in cash when you first meet them.

We have a layover in Rome airport at night time for 9 hours. Is it safe to travel Rome at night time ??? Please advise. Our flight is at morning 4 am from Rome
I imagine you can visit the Trevi fountain and the outside of Pantheon at night and go to a late dinner and drinks nearby. I am not sure how late they are often though. I'd check out the opening hours of the stores in this area in advance!

Thanks for sharing this info! 1) Yeah, in the U.S., it's widely called "Spanish steps", and I agree that's a misrepresentation. 2) I didn't know the meaning of the name. That totally makes sense! I will try to pronounce it more accurately next time. 3) I'm sure public transportation is cheap, and can be convenient in many cases. But from my own experiences, taking a 50-euro taxi makes more sense, when you can split that cost with another person. Taking a subway with suitcases especially after a red-eye flight can be quite exhausting, I must say.
Recommends not going to a touristy restaurant, proceeds to go to a touristy restaurant. There is actually a very well known salumeria in the piazza in front of the pantheon and a very well known restaurant right around the corner. Why is someone who clearly knows little about Roma giving tips on the city?

It’s called then the Spanish Steps because the Spanish Embassy was located at the base of the stairs, in the Piazza di Spagna.

Uber is cheaper than a Taxi from the airport.

Liked it.
Roughly about how much usd should I take for 5 days
100 to 200 euros in cash would be enough. Most stores accept credit cards. But some hotels in Rome charge taxes separately and they accept cash only.
Excelente información
They’re called the Spanish steps because they’re close to the Spanish consulate
Correct!

The best museum in Rome is MUSEO NAZIONALE ROMANO. It is a museum for intelligent people!

"This building is as old as America"
Only if you believe that "America" didn't exist before colonizers came. Indigenous people were living here just as long.
Well that's not what I believe at all. Technically I should've said the United States
50€ for 40 min ride is not reasonable
In NYC, that would be around $100. On top of that, the price fluctuates based on demand(not like a flat fee in Rome) and it’s often more than $100.
i guess u have a point but personally aint giving no taxi 50€ rather hop on metro or train @@NewYorkerJuhui
