I drove through a Swiss alp once!😂🤣
please is it possible to convert tourism visa to work permit in Italy
Watching this after my first trip to Rome and giving myself a pat on the back for not making any tourist mistake. When I went to our Airbnb, our host was so lovely and she would make us breakfast every morning and she helped us practice our Italian, she definitely made our trip 10x better. Already thinking of visiting Rome again!
Which airbnb did you visit? I will be traveling there this summer
Hello! I second the other commenter - which airbnb did you visit? I would love to have this lovely experience too
Same here!
Am going to rome the 2nd time in like a week
Mistake #16: ordering Fettuccine Alfredo. If it’s on the menu then it’s a tourist restaurant.
Yup!
There is a restaurant called Alfredo alla Scrofa in Rome, they say they invented fettuccine Alfredo?
@@emikichi376 The restaurant Alfredo alla Scrofa invented Pasta, burro e parmigiano, not the stuff USA eats.
But pasta burro e parmigiano is the kind of dish that you give kids when they are sick and it's not a "national" dish here.
You will have an hard time in finding an Italian that knows what is fettuccine alfredo.
@@emikichi376 Vero....e lui il vero Alfredo!
@@emikichi376 no im italian i can ASSURE that fettucine aflredo is not italian food
Hello! I am from Italy, and although I’m not really in the audience for these kinds of travel tips, it warms my heart to see people so so enthusiastic about my country when our citizens can’t be arsed to pick up their cigarette butts off the roads. Un abbraccio da Padova. Ciao!
Ciao! As Italian citizens, we love sharing Italy with other travelers - including Italians like you 😊 Thanks for watching!!
DOOM is the goat 🐐
Lucky you ,i have always wanted to visit Italy especially Rome ,i can honestly say it was unbelievably beautiful ,where as I’m usually happy about heading home at the end of a holiday I genuinely wanted to stay . It’s definitely my dream place to live and far exceeded my expectations
I've been a few times but won't be returning now that it's government is hard right.
Sounds like our citizens here (US)
I went to rome and the #1 thing I learnt was all the tourist traps, places close to famous monuments or has a board showing photos of their food. We ate at ‘side streets’ which was much more cheaper and so lovely!
Yes, side streets usually get you away from the tourist traps and give you a more authentic experience!
Great video as a first timer looking to prepare , thank you! Both of you do an excellent job of cutting straight to helpful tips and it’s short and sweet! Love the editing as well heh. Ty!
#16 if your restaurant is close to a famous monument, or has a board showing photos of their food, it’s a tourist trap
#17 avoid the train stations area, for example Termini Station in Rome is an area with a lot of homeless people and the crime rate is high
#18 if the gelato place has bright, colorful and visible ice cream, avoid that and go to a traditional one
We agree! You know your stuff!
Very right, I was a bit disappointed with the gelati I tried. I think I did not go to the right places. I disagree slightly about Termini: while not great the area is certainly nowhere as bad as comparable train stations in my own country or for example Gare du Nord in Paris/Central in Sydney. The homelessness seems very mild. Maybe to the credit of Italians this still does seem like something that should not be tolerated.
The train station was safe and clean. We used it to go to Milano and then Firenze. It was amazing.
Thank you so so much for this, and for everyone in the comments! We're going to Rome in a couple months for the first time, super excited!
How exciting! We hope you have a fantastic trip to Rome!
We found this very useful, thank you! 🏴
This is so well done. Informative and the “acting” was wonderful.
Thank you so much! We know the acting was silly, but we're glad you enjoyed it nonetheless 😊
Loved your shared experiences! Great advice.
Thank you so much! We’re so glad you found it helpful! 😊
Lovely video 👍
I was in Rome with my family in the summer of 2022. It’s an incredible city! Can’t wait to visit again this summer.
How neat that you are returning again this year!
One of the best video's that I've seen about Rome. Thanks!!!
Wow, thank you so much!
Loved your content!! Found out a lot about Rome I didn’t know
So glad you've enjoyed it!
So glad I found a video like this. Thank you
Glad to help!! 😊
Very informative and entertaining! Well done!
You are so kind, thank you so much! 😊
Another excellent informative video without the "fluff".
You don't need to learn much Italian.
"Please", "Thank you", "Goodbye", "One", "Two" and a friendly smile was all we needed.
99.9% of Italians we came across in a month of being there recently spoke enough English for us to communicate :)
But its nice to do this small effort ♥️🤗
Yes, video is frequently disingenuous to make its point. Those 2/3 who don't speak any English are not in Rome, Florence, Venice, etc. It is certainly polite to make an effort to speak as much Italian as you can, and have Google translate on hand for non-basics. Then the shop keeper will smile and wave it away.
Romans can be a tad brusque, much like New Yorkers with a 2000 year headstart, but the rudeness implied here is more of a Parisian thing.
Lovely video - made me feel a bit homesick for Rome 😊 I’ve got so many happy memories of times spent there
Awww we hope you get to return again soon!
I’m so glad I learnt to speak Italian 🇮🇹 many years ago. When I first came to Rome in 2008, my spoken Italian wasn’t great. In spring 2024 after years of improving, I speak more fluently. I went to Naples, noticed the Neapolitan accent and engaged in conversation with the locals. In Rome, I walked around. I’ve been to many of the ancient ruins. The driving and parking is terrible. As a British traveller it’s tricky crossing the road as I’m used to driving on the left and looking right while crossing. In Italy I have to remember to look left first.
Great information with such wonderful humor.
Thank you for appreciating our playfulness 😜
Totally loved this, appreciate all the tips and all the info 🥰 Been dreaming of visiting Rome and Paris one of these days and this is very helpful! I always think that travels are made easier when you have the best travel gears and essentials too. The bento bag from Nomad Lane is my best carry-on bag for travels like this. Thought I'd share it with you guys too!
So glad you enjoyed this Francine! Thanks for taking the time to comment and share your travel dreams!
Im in Rome now its absolutely divine I’ve always wanted to come here it doesn’t disappoint I especially recommend St Peters square inside the Basilica its so outstandingly beautiful you’ll think you’ve gone to heaven
Great advice. I love the cinematic cutaways.
So glad you found it helpful! And thanks for your compliments 🙂
Love that bunny hopping in your yard! Thanks for this very informative video.
Glad you found it helpful-and enjoyed the bunny too 🐰😊
Thank you so much for your informative and entertains video! This was very helpful. ❤
So glad it was helpful! We really do love creating these videos.
Fantastic video ! Very informative
Thanks for taking the time to leave such a kind comment! So glad you find our videos helpful!
Great video, I wish there was a sure way to make money while traveling or on vacation without lifting a finger.
Wouldn’t that be nice? But not all work is bad work - especially if you enjoy what you’re doing 🙂
Your money is stagnant when you save, I will advise you buy stocks with market-beating yields and shares that at least keep pace with the market for a long term. For a successful long-term strategy I recommend you seek the guidance of a broker or financial advisor.
How can I be part of this project I earnestly hope to build a strong financial future I'm interested to take part, who's the person behind your success?
This information is valuable. I quickly searched her full name and her website appeared instantly, showcasing her impressive qualifications. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for making this video. It was very informative as well as fun to watch!!!
We have subscribed to your channel, and will be binge watching more videos.
Thanks for letting us know the videos are helpful (and fun to watch)! We're so glad you found us and are happy to have you following along.
Great vídeo! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great helpful videos for us first timers!!
We love hearing that the video was helpful! Hope you had a great trip.
Thank you guys for this video! Me and my partner will travel to Rome in february 😊
The water from the fountains is so fresh and delicious, especially useful in the summer!
Thanks for the great video!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching! 😊
Loved your videos! They are so helpful
Thank so much for letting us know they're helpful!
I am in Rome right now & this is very helpful and so true! I even want to translate it into Japanese, so they can have better tips/understanding coming here! Thank you for sharing your great videos!
Awww, thank you for your compliments! We are so glad you found it helpful and think it would be helpful for other travelers too!
Sitting north of Plaza Navarro right now when I discovered your video. Spot on! Thanks and I'll be reviewing your others prior to my next visit!
So glad our video was helpful! Thanks for the encouragement.
I've been thru Italy, Rome several times.
the last was w my grandkid, he was still in school then, so we went in June.
I'll never go in the summer again soooo hot and crowded. when I traveled by myself, I always did it a little off season, may oct etc.
but I'm glad I got to take him.
Off season or shoulder season definitely brings cooler weather and less people! But what a sweet trip with your grandson 😊
Thank you guys! Very informative ❤visiting Rome in few days ☺️
You're Welcome! Hope you have a great time!
Really fantastic tips!
Thanks so much for the encouragement!
❤❤❤THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR VERY HELPFUL VIDEO. PLEASE KEEP DOING IT FOR EACH COUNTRY YOU VISIT
You’re so welcome, thanks for watching! And we plan to keep making videos 🤩 so there will be more to watch!
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo
Elle nous a beaucoup aidé pour la visite à Rome
Merci !!!
Great tips, great video.
Thank you!
Great advice!
Thanks!
Going for the first time with a large group of family and friends, approximately 12 of us. Looking forward to it immensely, thanks for all of the tips 😊
Traveling with friends and family is the best! Hope you all have a great trip!
I'm an expat who has lived and worked in Italy for 34 years now. This is an excellent video, and the advice is extremely good. Bravi, carissimi!!!
Great video! I've been to Rome about a half dozen times and all these tips are so good! As a professional photographer I've gotten up just before sunrise in the winter months and have had the whole Trevi and Pantheon completely to myself. As far as the language barrier...the pleasantries as you mentioned go a long way!
Thanks for letting us know you enjoyed the video! I bet you've gotten some amazing pictures; the timing really does make all the difference.
I'm going to Italy later and I found your video is bloody funny! :p Cheers from down under Australia!
Hi Raymond, glad you enjoyed our video! Hope it's as helpful as it is funny :)
I am visiting next September for the second time. Looking forward to enjoying the landmarks, the food, the people. Grazie mille
We hope you have a great time visiting Rome, Carlos! :)
Thank you for this. I will use it if I ever go to Rome.
You're welcome! Hope you can get there soon:)
Great useful videos
Glad it's helpful!
great tips
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for letting us know:)
Thank for the great tips but what I loved the most was this cutie bunny hopping around 😍🐇🥰🐾🤩
We're so glad to help! Glad you spied the bunny too 😊😊😊
Amazing. Thank you
You’re welcome! So glad you found it helpful!!
We stayed a few areas outside the main tourist area. It was full of lovely locals, amazing food and cheaper accommodation. It was also great being able to explore more of Rome.
My family and I did too in Milan. People were very friendly and more than willing to help. I fell and scraped up my knee really bad. Limped my way into a pharmacy and just lifted my leg. Lol the lady was gasped and jumped into action. She told me in Italian what to do and it was basic enough for me to understand😁
So great to hear you both had good experiences with the locals! We definitely agree-staying in a more local area is more authentic and friendlier too. So awesome you were both able to enjoy that (even if it involved a visit to the pharmacy :)
Any recommendation s for cheaper accommodation ? Going in may and going mental trying to find a smaller hotel or b and b.. Thanks
@@miskyloo887 we stayed in an Airbnb near Trastevere. It was just a little further out but on the train line still.
Outstanding.
Thank you! :)
All these things are spot on.
Great informative video. I plan on going to Rome, Italy in October for my Bday. 😎
Happy early birthday! We hope this helps you enjoy your time there!!🙂
Comments from Japan,I’m going to Roma for honeymoon in this July. People around me always advice only about pickpockets but this video is not. thank you for the helpful info
Grazie! Thank goodness I speak Italian (out of practice but I studied it). Thanks for this video ragazzi!
Prego! 😎
I'm so glad I took the time to learn some basic Italian before we went (DuoLingo for 8 months was a blessing). Many of the places around the major attractions will have English speaking people, but there are many places you might end up where this is not the case. Also, if you want to eat at many of the food places where locals eat at you will need to know your foods and some of the words like AL and DI to understand exactly what your ordering. You can use a translator of course, but cell reception wasn't always great in some places which would have left us in a tough spot at times. Know your foods and the singular/plural versions of words, like for example "due cappuccini" (2 cappuccino's). If you say "due cappuccino" they may think you want a double (doppio) of one coffee. I ran into this issue.
So glad you took the time to learn some basic Italian! We agree that it really helps to be better understood!
@@AplinsintheAlps absolutely. I wanted to learn anyways since my grandfather was from italy, but Im very glad I learned as much as I did. It made the trip more enjoyable and I spent less time trying to look stuff up on my phone. Time well spent
You should speak properly italian before coming to Italy bro
@@MIkkk86 hey at least I put forth the effort to learn. Many don't even bother to learn any Italian and then expect everyone there to speak english. I knew about 350 words and phrases before we went so Id say that was a good start.
And if you say "triplo" expect a surprise and a laugh
Great video
Thank you!
How much time do you need to
Pre-book for the sights/sites?
Great vid btw!
Great video and awesome tips! And thank you for not telling me when I can or can't order a cappuccino. 😁
I would never tell you when you can or can’t have a cappuccino, but we just might discuss it in a future video 😉
I made half of those mistakes, especially the water fountain one lol DOPE!
But we bet you still had a great trip! Part of the fun is the stories you bring home after making those mistakes. We've made plenty!!
Thanks!
Welcome!
Hi guys. New to your channel. Informative, hilarious - and true! From my (limited) travels, many of these unspoken rules apply in a lot of European cities, not just Rome.
Another sign of a tourist-trap restaurant is when you order carbonara and it's clearly been cut with cream!
Enjoyed your vid 👍.
So glad you're here! And you're right, a lot of these tips apply throughout Europe :) Thanks for following along!
Bel video, Ben fatto. Bravi
Grazie! 😊
I just got back from Rome a few weeks ago...Although I had no real troubles, I regret not learning more Italian... but I'm going again in the spring ;)
So neat that you get to return again so soon. Now is a great time for some Italian practice before your next trip!
That's very interesting about the AC in Rome - where I usually holiday in the north of Italy, nearly every business has AC and nearly every home also.
Wow, you're such nice guys, even 5 min. of watching your video made me happier :))
Aww we’re so happy to share our joy with you 😊
Lovely video, will be there in October, we try to vacation in the fall/spring because of cooler weather and avoid the massive amount of tourists, great tips and keep up the good work, love the bunny making quite a few appearances
That's a great idea to travel in shoulder seasons for less crowds and cooler weather! And glad you spied the bunny as well 😊
Loved the bunny in the background.
So glad you saw him :) We were filming in our friend's garden in Rome, and that's their pet!
I also noticed the bunny! I was wondering if you guys brought your pet bunny to Italy with you 🤣 Either way, by me trying to figure this out and scouring your pages for your adorable pet bunny, you got a new follower 😊 My husband and I loved the video and are really looking forward to our trip next year! We already know a tiny bit of French and Spanish, so maybe picking up Italian before next year won't be too hard! Thanks for all the info 😊
You're so sweet! We filmed this at a friend's house in Rome and that's their pet bunny :) So glad you found this helpful. Good luck studying Italian, and happy travels!
Coach Brett!! I was so surprised to run across your videos! We are now going through them to prepare for our trip this year! Sam (Samantha from ETC’s Awesome Possums) says hi!!
Hi there!! So sorry for the delayed reply-what a joy to hear from you!
When are you traveling? So exciting you'll be coming to Europe. We're grateful you're watching our videos!
We will be leaving for the UK on June 23rd, then hopping to Paris, Rome, and Athens. We have learned so much from your videos and it was so good to see a familiar face!
loved your video. Great advice. You can use the advice to any city in Europe. It's always good to know a few words like Please, Thank You and Where is the bathroom. Good shoes are so important for walking on cobblestone especial if the stones are wet.
So glad you found the video helpful! We agree, good shoes are important and knowing some phrases in the local language is always helpful.
I will attest that the water in rome from allll those spickets was wonderful! Filled my water bottle endlessly and the water was great!
Hello,
This video has been very helpful during the planning of our trip to Italy, thank you.
Please may you help with advice on weather the area around the Cipro metro station, near Vatican City is a safe area to stay?
Many thanks
Hi! New subscriber. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from a Portuguese ❤️
Welcome! So glad you found us:)
@@AplinsintheAlps ❤️
Excellent
Thank you 😊
tHANK YOU.
You're welcome!
We've been to Rome so many times now and you absolutely slayed these tips! This was a great video! Now, off to Rome again the end of this month💞🇮🇹
Debbie and Stijn
Debbie and Stijn, thanks for your compliments! We’re so glad you agree!!! Happy travels to Rome next month!
I was going to show my husband around, but with considering the election results, we'll go to France or Portugal instead.
The bunny at the back :) Thank you for the video.
You’re welcome 😊
Awesome video ❤
Thanks for letting us know! Glad you enjoyed it.
please is it possible to say you are coming as a tourism for 2 months if yes please can you give me a clue of how I we be able to put up the writeup that we make sense for the consulate officer
Hysterical! I have been traveling to Europe for over 20 years (former Air Force Brat turned travel photographer); and I am constantly amazed to see how oblivious and obvious tourists from all countries are! But your video was inspiring and funny. I even learned a few things.
Wow! I bet you have seen and been to some amazing places after 20 years of travel. Do you have a favorite place? Glad you got a laugh out of our video and learned a few things too!
@@AplinsintheAlps I will say Paris about 10 years ago (before Instagram ruined all the 'secret' places) and the Budapest because the people there were so nice and friendly.
As a roman tour guide: GREAT JOB guys!
Wow that's a BIG compliment! Grazie!
I love the sense of humor and acting you put in this video. I appreciate your effort because it was really effective communication that made your points memorable.
I'm saving and bookmarking this video to prepare for my trip to Rome. I tried to go 3 years ago, but then the pandemic happened and shut it down.
Thank you for the vid!
I've watched a ton of tips videos on Rome and this one kills it. You both clearly had fun making this video, which **shockingly** translates into having fun while learning = memory recall! Well done ya'll, this is content done right.
Tips: The best period to visit Rome are the months of April, May, September and October in which the weather is warm but not hot.
May would be definetly the best choice.
We totally agree! We lived in Rome from January - July and thought that April and May were absolutely fantastic! Thanks for the comment!
September? 40 degrees? No thanks
@@eclipseeclipse2471 max 30 degrees at Rome in September, and only for the first week of the month
How is early to mid June? Unfortunately with work I can’t go till then so what should I expect
@@courtney9321 it's good
Will be going to Rome for the first time in 40 years at the end of March. In those days there were few queues and little hassle. Your tips will hopefully come in useful.
What a fun trip! We're glad our tips will help 😊
You guys are fun.
Awww! Thanks:)
Thanks for the useful tips, I hope to visit ROME this year :) May I know the best months to visit ROME?
We're a big fan of the Spring months, especially April. Basically, June-August should be avoided if possible. Hot and crowded!!
Thanks
Thank you so much for your support! We are grateful.
Great
I will be traveling to Rome in the first weeknof October, and your videos 👌 they are goin to be so helpful... Thanks for the lovely content ❤️
A question - what do you think will be the weather like in October in Rome? Should we carry full sleeves clothes or dresses/ sleeveless clothes should be fine.
We hope you enjoy your trip to Rome! We always recommend packing layers because the weather could be varied in October. One year we were there and it was warm, but last year was freezing in October. That’s pretty typical during the autumn!
I just came from Florence, and it really was a challenge not being able to speak the language. And you are so correct that they drive insanely
It certainly helps to know some basic Italian! Hopefully you still had a wonderful trip though!
@@AplinsintheAlps It was lovely, and I plan to know more Italian for next time :)
Great video thanks! What are your thoughts on wearing active wear in Italy!! My trip includes Switzerland and Italy, abd travelling with a carry on makes ot difficult to pack leisurely
We recommend that you pack and wear whatever you're comfortable in! Italians tend to only wear activewear when they're actually exercising/hiking (otherwise they dress in casual clothing), but that doesn't mean you can't wear it if it's what you like :)
😅😂 great video guys!!! Looking forward to visit rome in June, maybe July of this year ('23) any suggestions for parking lots or garages? I'll be driving from Switzerland. Thanks ❤
How fun! We recommend finding an Airbnb or hotel with parking. That will be easiest in the center! Enjoy your time in Rome!
I’ve only been to Rome once for a couple of days, back in 2014.
Going back to Italy in May
How awesome! We hope you enjoy it :)
I'm confused about validating the tickets. Where do you get the ticket to begin with? Are you validating someplace outside the bus or within the bus?? Where do you purchase the ticket?
Nice video 😊👌🏼. Just one thing.
The pre booking of a ticket is possible to visit those places where there is a ticket to buy at the entrance (Vatican museum or Coliseum etc..) while to enter S Peter Basilica is free so there is no pre booking ticket to enter. The queue is part of the game. 😂.
Yep, you're right, St. Peter's is free to enter! We just filmed the long lines of people there ;)
