Vacation in a holiday home in the region of Rome and surrounding area
“All roads lead to Rome,” was literally true in ancient times, with nearly 50,000 miles of paved roadway carrying travellers to Rome’s political and social center, the Roman Forum. Even now, 2,000 years later, Rome and the surrounding area is still a sought-after destination. With archeological sites, piazzas, and numerous options to vacation in holiday houses, or holiday rentals, Rome is the ideal, family-friendly holiday locale.
Rome vacation in holiday homes with children
With its amenable weather, Rome and the surrounding area is easy to explore any time of year. Rent holiday apartments or holiday homes in Italy, then start your excursion with a tour of the world-renown Colosseum and Roman Forum. From there, walk to the Palatine Hill Ruins and Circus Maximus. Must-see sights in Rome include the Pantheon and famous Trevi Fountain. Be sure to visit Campo di Fiori, a kid-friendly, open-air market featuring fresh foods, souvenirs, a bakery, and gelato shop. A stop at the Vatican will require an entire day, with the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel being essential to your visit. Climb the dome of St. Peter’s Cathedral, where you will be rewarded with a panoramic view of the city. At the end of each fun-filled day, you will be grateful for the leisurely evenings in your holiday home or holiday apartment.
Day-Trips from Holiday Homes: Rome
If you are planning a day-trip by train, it will begin at Termini Station, which is a quick underground ride from almost all holiday rentals or apartments in Rome. For a short trip, visit Fiumicino, an ancient seaport 30 kilometers from Rome. For a day at the sea, try Spurlonga, a picturesque coastal city. The mountains of Umbria are ideal for hikers and nature-lovers. Pompeii is also a manageable day-trip, roughly 2 hours (one-way) by train.
