    Co-Owner of The Tour Guy, Sean Finelli, explains what to see and do around the Vatican City.
    Rome is an amazing city comprised of many different neighborhoods. They say that six million people per year go to the Vatican City, inside the Vatican museums alone. Where the crowds go, tourist traps tend to follow. It's really important that you know where to go, what to see, how to see it, where to eat, and obviously, where to drink.
    Vatican City consists of the Saint Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums. We recommend reserving tickets beforehand and taking a guided tour of the museums.
    We also suggest getting breakfast on the go, visiting the outdoor restaurants on Borgo Pio, and trying the panino at Duecento Gradi. Don't miss visiting Dino e Toni for an authentic Roman dining experience and checking out Ponte Sant'Angelo for its historical significance and excellent viewpoint. Lastly, check out our recommendations for a fantastic gelateria and a one-stop shop for Italian brands.

    Hi! I’m planning my first trip to Rome this summer and I’m excited to take a tour with you. Just wondering if August 17-24 is a bad time to go? That’s the cheapest week all summer and I’m wondering if there’s a reason why?

      Its called Bar Giulio Cesare - it's kind of a touristy bar on a high-traffic and crowded street. They simply make that one cornetto fresh and it's really good. I wouldn't sit down or get lunch there.

    I really like your videos. I'll be visiting Rome for the first time in a few months and I've really been looking for information on what the locals like to do and where they like to eat. I really don't want to get sucked in to the tourist traps. I really want to experience Rome, not just see all the sights. I'll also be visiting Florence and Venice. It will be mu first time in Italy so I'm really excited. Thank you for all of the information, it's helping a lot.

I was a little nervous about not knowing what to order if I go to a restaurant that only has an Italian menu but I will take your suggestions to heart and "embrace" the experience. I have dreamed of visiting Italy for years because of the history and the culture and I'm very excited that I'll finally get a chance to visit. I've already paid for the plane tickets and accommodations so right now I'm just doing my research on things to do, to see, to experience and the best way to get around. So I really appreciate all of your help. Thank you :)
