Our Itinerary<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of Lazio is Roma. However, visiting this region does not just mean walking around the Colosseum<\/strong><\/a> or the Fori Imperiali,<\/strong><\/a> because the Lazio region is as beautiful as it is fascinating. So, if you really want to get to know Lazio, here are some destinations for this itinerary that you cannot miss. It is a five-day itinerary, when you arrive in Rome, rent a car, and the journey begins. The first place after having chosen Lazio as a region to explore, of course, cannot fail to be our capital, the wonderful city of Rome.<\/p>\n

1) Five-day road trip through Lazio \u2013 FIRST DAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Day One: Arrive<\/strong> at Rome Airport<\/strong><\/a> early in the morning to pick up the rental car; go to the hotel to accommodate your luggage; and then start the tour of the city. We chose a very central hotel to move more easily both on foot and by metro<\/strong>, also because Rome has a chaotic traffic of vehicles and by car you would lose a lot of time, so we will leave the car in the hotel parking lot that day.<\/p>\n

A little about Rome<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The eternal city attracts millions of visitors with its endless history and its art treasures and you should spend at least two days to experience the city<\/strong> in all its glory, but if you are only going to stay one day, the things to see will be limited. Although the choice among the many interesting places in Rome is really difficult, we have tried to articulate a walk that includes the main attractions and gives due importance to the beauty of this magnificent place. Also, read our Post: The Most Beautiful Panoramic Views Of Rome<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Attractions in Rome<\/strong><\/h4>\n

We start our tour at the Vatican<\/strong><\/a> with the Basilica of St. Peter<\/strong><\/a>, the main church of Christianity. Continue the walk to Castel Sant’Angelo<\/strong><\/a> and then go to Ponte Cavour, then take Via Tomacelli and Via dei Condotti to Piazza di Spagna<\/strong><\/a>, a Baroque masterpiece by Francesco de Sanctis.<\/p>\n

From Piazza di Spagna, you can continue on Via di Propaganda and Via Poli to the Trevi Fountain<\/strong><\/a>, which gained worldwide fame not only for its splendor but also thanks to the movie ‘La Dolce Vita’. At this point, you reach Piazza Venezia<\/strong> and follow Via dei Fori Imperiali<\/strong><\/a>, which crosses the Fori Imperiali and the Roman Forum<\/strong><\/a>, arriving at the Colosseum<\/strong>, the symbol of Rome. You should definitely take a look at Capitoline Hill and enjoy Roman life in one of the many bars overlooking the streets or stop for dinner in one of the many typical trattorias in the capital. And then you go back to the hotel to sleep. FIND OUT WHERE TO STAY IN ROME HERE!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

2) Five-day itinerary by car through Lazio \u2013 SECOND DAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Day Two<\/strong>: after a hearty breakfast<\/strong><\/a>, you leave Rome by car to discover the Lazio region, which, in addition to the magnetic charm of the Roman capital, also offers many other attractions that will make your heart flutter. On this second day, we will see one of the many beauties of this region, Tivoli<\/strong>. Called the ‘Tibur Superbum’ in the Aeneid, it is an important destination to understand the history of Lazio.<\/p>\n

Attractions in Tivoli<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Here you will find many testimonies of the past, not least because it also has origins even older than those of Rome. The beautiful scenery that the city enjoys, has helped to make it an attractive place from the point of view of tourism. After visiting the city center, which is a fascinating nucleus made of an interweaving of narrow streets and a fantastic view, such as the Falls of Aniene and Villa Gregoriana<\/strong>, and the other nucleus, which is the countryside of Lazio, you will visit one of the wonderful villas located in Tivoli, which is \u00a0a UNESCO World Heritage Site and dates back to the Renaissance<\/strong>, \u00a0Villa D’Este<\/strong>, which represents one of the masterpieces of Italian interior and exterior architecture. How about taking advantage of the fact that you are in Tivoli and taking a course at the gladiator school? Click here to learn more!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Villa D’Este<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Of particular interest on the visit to the Villa are the rooms on the main floor of the palace<\/strong>, decorated and painted by a large group of Roman artists of Mannerism, and the splendid garden<\/strong>. The Hundred Fountains<\/strong> flanking the 100-meter-long avenue are certainly impressive. It will surely be a hectic day, tiring but full of beautiful things, after a good dinner in a typical restaurant bed. Then, if you would like an amazing experience in the city, embark on a private tour of Rome’s iconic sites, like the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon with an exclusive guide. Skip-the-line ticket to Villa d’Este with audio guide<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

3) Five-day road trip through Lazio \u2013 THIRD DAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Third Day<\/strong>: After a good breakfast, you leave Tivoli to reach the city of Viterbo<\/strong>. This day will be dedicated to the discovery of Viterbo, the city of the popes<\/strong>. We leave the car in the parking lot of the hotel in Virtebo; we also leave the luggage and immediately we go to visit the city, that appears to be completely surrounded by fortifications.<\/p>\n

Attractions in Virtebo<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The visit begins at the Palazzo dei Priori<\/strong>, with its rooms decorated with wonderful paintings from the end of the Italian Renaissance and with its inner courtyard embellished with remains of Etruscan sarcophagi. We continue the tour towards the Medieval Quarter<\/strong>, one of the most charming areas of Viterbo, where it feels like being in a small village and not in the heart of a city. Then we visit the museum dedicated to the Facchini of Santa Rosa,<\/strong> and in Piazza della Morte<\/strong>, we discover the underground\u00a0Viterbo<\/strong>, which will take you to the caves excavated under the city<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After the visit, we had lunch in a typical restaurant not far away and then we arrived at the Duomo<\/strong>. The square has an impressive overall view, between the Duomo, Palazzo Papale<\/strong> and the view of the valley.\u00a0Continue the walk to reach the Church of Santa Rosa<\/strong>, where the body of the saint is preserved. At this point, after finding a typical restaurant for a dinner based on local products, you return to the hotel for a well-deserved rest.\u00a0CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT FOOD IN ITALY!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
