Travel : Planning a trip back to Rome 🇮🇹
It has been a very long time since I have travelled outside of Canada …
I lived in Rome for 6 months many years ago as part of a Directed Studies Abroad (DSA) program and would like to make a return trip with my family.
So, I’m trying to plan a 1 week trip back to Rome with my wife and kids (16 and 18) ….
I’m not sure of the dates yet .. Spring or Fall of 2023 ?
We would like to stay longer and visit Milan, Lake Como, Cinque Terre, Tuscany and Rome but I also don’t want to spend all our time on a train or driving on the highway.
There is so much to see just in Rome …
So I am thinking that maybe a 1 week visit to Rome might be the best place to start and then make another Trip at a later date to visit Tuscany (Sienna, Florence) and the North ( Milan, Como, Venice)
I’d like to find a nice hotel near Piazza Navona and make daily walking trips to see the sights …
Day 1 : Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain.
Day 2 : Vatican, Sistine Chappel
Day 3 : Roman Forum, Colliseum
Day 4: Borghese Gardens, Gallery, Piazza del Popolo
Day 5: Via del Corso, Spanish Steps
Day 6 : Trastevere etc…
Day 7: Relax before Flight home …
Approx. Cost for 1 week :
Flights : $ 3,600
Hotel : $ 2,800
Meals : $ 1,000 ?
Museums, Misc,: $1,000 ?
Other suggestions, recommendations ?
Any other Italians here on Steemit ? Xpilar ?
Yeah, expensive…. $8,000 + for 1 week. This is why we don’t travel much.
