Day 12 Athens to Rome

After 30 minutes being given a run down on Rome and the accomodation , we had half an hour to change as we then walked 45 minutes to meet our food and wine tour on Travestere. There was only us and another couple who were on honeymoon from America. The whole night was fantastic. They were such fun as was the guide and we ate beautiful Italian food and drank too much wine!

Absolutely shattered but had had the best introduction to Rome.Read more
