Violet Moon Italy Sojourn Holiday – Tentative Itinerary (Experience 10 Nights 11 Days Package)Day 1
INDIA - ROMEOn arrival at Rome Airport, our representative will take to your private car transfer for your hotel. Check in to your hotel, unpack and relax. Shed the fatigue and jet lag of your long flight. Later in the evening explore the surrounding market and you may dine at one of the fine piazza restaurants relishing Italian cuisine and wine. Welcome to Rome,< the beautiful and vibrant Italian capital lives in the present, but no other city on earth evokes its past so powerfully. For over 2,500 years, emperors, popes, artists, and common citizens have left their mark here. Archaeological remains from ancient Rome, art-stuffed churches, and the treasures of Vatican City vie for your attention, but Rome is also a wonderful place to practice the Italian-perfected il dolce far niente, the sweet art of idleness. Your most memorable experiences may include sitting at a caffè in the Campo de’ Fiori or strolling in a beguiling piazza. Rome is also one of world’s most photogenic cities – not surprising when you remember what’s here – The Vatican, The Trevi Fountain, St Peter’s Square, Spanish Steps, Colosseum…and much much more.
