What is a "Wow"?? This is a "Wow"--San Francisco Airport to a Buffalo Pizza at Dar Poeta in the Trastevere, Rome Italy in one day!
Our pre tour plan for Rome was developed with lots of help from contributors to Rick’s Travelers helpline, several of whom we emailed for additional advice. A blog by Ron in Rome was helpful. Rick's Rome Guide provided many helpful ideas for neighborhood visits. Our goal the first day was to stay awake, get on a Rome clock schedule and to orientate ourselves to the Trastevere area. The second day was to do Rick's Trastevere walk, and visit Ancient Rome. Our third day we scheduled a tour of the Borghese Gallery, then we did the traffic free Sunday Dolce vita Stroll from Plazza del Popolo on Via de Corso. On Monday morning we had a guided tour of Vatican City, and returned to Casa San Giuseppe for our South of Italy Tour introduction.
