Things to do in Rome

So many ways to capture a slice of La Dolce Vita in this Italian gem, yet so little time. Here's where to begin...

Food & Drink in Rome

Sit outside at any Italian café to enjoy a traditional aperitif, which range from sweet Bellinis to tart Negronis.

Scoop your way through some of the best gelato in Italy at Giolitti, taking the time to enjoy all the best ingredients from around the country. Around since 1900, this is as old school as you’ll find it.

Let us not forget the most classic of all Italian dishes: pizza. Stop in at La Pratolina, Seu Pizza Illuminati or Piccolo Buco for some of the best. Though it would be hard to get it wrong, no matter where you stop off.
