First time going-much needed info ! Thank you
Thanks for watching. Be sure to check out some of my itinerary videos. I think they will help you a lot when you make plans for what to see and do in Rome.
Such good travel tips. Thanks
Thank you. Have you been to Trastevere?
Great vid. Can’t wait to get back this fall for the 2nd time. Rome is the biggest walkable city I’ve been too in my many travels. Every direction is endless things to see, eat and do. Lots of idea for me. ✌
Thanks. Couldn't agree more Rome is a special city! If you have not been to Trastevere area be sure to visit on your next visit.
Found this really useful with so many great tips all round. We stayed near Termini in August. It was fine, but we felt we were missing out a bit on Rome. Will definitely consider Trastevere for a future visit, as well as watching any more videos you do.
👍👍👍
I’m glad you liked the video. Working on some new ones now. I hope you like them.
Really good video. This looks like a really good area to venture from. Thanks much for sharing.😊
It is a great area to venture from!
So refreshing to hear from someone who has been multiple times - perfect for someone like me who has been twice. Really appreciate your use of the map!
Thanks I appreciate the comment. I am trying to make more videos more informational going forward. We want to help people to make the most of their time in Rome
Very informative!!! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!. I’m working on some new ones that may be helpful
Thank you for all your posts.
You are very welcome we hope you enjoyed them. Happy Thanksgiving
what a way of using the map! thank you :)
Glad you like it! I appreciate the comment
We are going in early December to see what Christmas is like. Love your videos so packed with information!
Have a great time! I hope the information helps!
Christmas is a great time to be in Italy
Thank you! Can’t wait to visit!
Have fun!
It will be my first time in Rome June24. Thanks to your insightful video, Trastevere will be our base camp. Thank you 😊😊
You’re going to love it. It’s a great place to wake up at and come home to at night. It’s easy to cross the river to many of Rome sites. The only downside is there’s no metro nearby so you will end up walking a bit more. I hope you have a great trip.
Thanks for the information, been to Rome three times with the tour group. Would like to go if my own some day and this was great info.
I you are going to get lost on your own Rome is a great place to do it! Thanks for watching.
was just in Rome the first time in summer and walked to trastavere it was beautiful! thanks for all the good ideas I already want to go back :)
Rome has a way of doing that to you. It’s a little bit addictive.
Im so glad to find your channel as we plan our trip to Rome in 2024. We're staying in Trastevere and now feel confident of my choice. Great information & format. Thank you.
Hey...I am visiting that area during first week of January ... How's the night life at Trastevere? Are you finding it easy to communicate to touristic points?
Not a problem at all many people speak english. Night life in Trastevere goes well into the morning every night especially on the weekend. Plenty happening here.
the map views are so helpful! love the way your brain works with the visuals. thank you!
When I first went to Rome there was no such thing as Google maps or GPS. Rome was like a maze that was hard to figure out so for me the maps make getting to knoe rome so much easier and a great way to prepare for a visit. Thanks for the comment
@@RozierRoma side note: did i see you playing pickleball in rome? i'll be there in two weeks - might have to bring my paddle.
yes pickleball in Rome. There is a club called New Country Club on the outskirts of Rome with fun players and 4 pickleball courts. If you can get there that is the best. There is also limited play at a sports club in Rome near the Colosseum. It is indoors on gym floors and only limited time to play.most Saturdays. Centro Sportivo Santa Maria
Heading there in July thanks for pointing out a few things others didn’t mention!
Have fun!
First time going to Rome .thank you so much for the information.
Have a great time. Be sure to check out some of my other videos. I think they will help you a lot.
Been to Rome once. I want to go back so this was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, you've saved me a lot of time and money.
Glad I could help! Rome is a great city especially nice when staying in a good area.
Wow! You give the best tips! I don't think that anyone offers the same 411 on Rome. And the very best graphics. 😊
We're still considering Frascati for the peace and quiet.
We have some catching up to do on your channel!
Some of my earlier videos are not the best. I am still learning but they are getting better. I am very familiar with Frascati. I had an apartment there for a cope of months earlier this year. The train runs every hour into Rome costs about 2 euros and takes about 30 minutes. It is a fun place to base from if you have a car as you can explore they all the towns around there but parking is a major pain and driving is a bit stressful. If you do not have a car give Trastevere a try. The early mornings before 10am and the evenings in Rome are not too crowded and awesome even in peak season. If you are in Frascati you will miss those. If you are there during off peak season the city is much more manageable. If in Rome for multiple days, escape a day trip to Frascati or Spoleto. Just my thoughts. I hope you have.a great trip.
I like It, thanks for making this video.
Thanks for watching!
Definately will use some of the recommendations in this video
Glad to hear
Great video! Trastevere is a fantastic and vibrant area. Area around Termini station is less fun. Not bad but just not nearly as good as Trastevere. Monti is also a very good area. We also stayed in Monte Sacro. A nice calm area in north east Rome. A tip is eat where the locals eat. Nannarella is very good in Trastevere.
Rome is a fantastic city. Add stain in good areas and eat that good restaurants makes it even better.
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤
No problem, glad you liked it!
Salve, Thanks for sharing this information. Been twice, going back in September definitely will explore Trastevere. Gracie Mille
You will love Trastevere! Funnest neighborhood in Rome
Great video very informative:)
I’m glad you like it. What could’ve had done better? I’m always looking to improve.
@@RozierRoma honestly it is the most thorough vlog of Rome I have found for anyone looking for details I love the maps and all of the visuals. It is great for first timers to Rome. very good vlog.
Any specific hotels you recommend in Trastevere ? Thank you ! Really enjoyed your video and just subscribed .
I usually stay in Airbnb, but there is one hotel. That is very good and I stayed here a while back. It’s called hotel Santa Maria. Perfect hotel perfect location super nice. I can’t recommend it enough.
Heading to Italy for my husband's 50th in April. We just happened to book our stay in Trastevere (the vibe just really appealed to me), but I've been questioning my decision ever since. Thank you for this video, as I can now sleep easy, haha! Great content, and I'm looking forward to more.
Have a great trip. We loved staying in trasteverre!
Great neighborhood for sure. It is overall a young crowd and lively. You will be walking a bit more as compared to just across the river. So many great thins to do and see and eat! Have a great trip!
Walking in rome is worth every step! Passagiata roma! Eat, walk, eat, walk, Infiniti
Try Nannarella for dinner. Best Carbonara I’ve ever had in my life.
That place is good for sure and when in Rome you have to try carbonara for sure.
Thank you for such a detailed post! You are incredibly knowledgable! It will be my first time traveling to Rome and your videos are simply amazing! Definitely helping me ease my anxiety since you have added all the maps and exact ways to get to locations. Where can I find the video of the first best location to stay in?
So glad to hear you enjoy my videos! Here are a few other that will help you.

@@RozierRoma Thank you!!
Another great video! We will look at this area. What you are missing is gelato 🍧 in relation to this area 😊 my wife loves it and where we were last year had the really good covered gelato so now we are spoiled. Maybe a video of best gelatarias in Rome?
Italians have gelato down, and Romans are no exception. These days it is so hard to taste the difference between one gelato and the next. Now it’s become more about the presentation and experience that differentiates one Gelateria from the next. I did not mention any Gialateria specifically in Trastevere but there are plenty. My wife has her favorite too called Giolitti located a little north of the pantheon. sometimes when we’re in the area we have to walk over there just to get her favorite gelato but I personally don’t see a big difference.
I am not a gelato snob by any stretch but I did feel I could tell the difference between some of the places in Florence and the gelato in San Gimignano, I might have just been super hungry though :) @@RozierRoma
good video :D
Glad you liked it
Wow, you are doing a great job as a tour guide. Why did you get so interested in Italy? I have only been to Cancun and Hawaii. I loved Hawaii and would like to visit again.
I was in Italy for a couple of years in my youth as a missionary for my church and more recently have the opportunity to spend more time there. It feels like it is part of me now.
Going in October,first time looking at Airbnb any neighborhood area you can recommend?Very informative videos plan on watching more Thanks
Book your Airbnb early and you will likely save money and have the best selection. There are lots to choose from. Try to pick one that has good reviews. Have a great trip
We stayed on Vicolo Moroni right near Ponte Sisto in Trastevere. It was the best.
Perfect!
1st time to Rome. Would you recommend using a local travel agency to arrange excursions like to Pompeii? Or is it pretty easy to book. Thank you for the wealth of information.
I think it is very easy to book on own with a little research if on a budget, There is an app called getyourguide that works really well in Italy that you should check out.
I was in Rome last month for 6 nights. I already want to go back. 😊
Rome has a way of doing that
Great video. I am looking for a hotel in Rome right now. Thinking if Trastevere is safe enough for walking at night for 2 females. Thanks
Trastevere is very safe even very late at night. It is a very fun area and the nightlife goes well past midnight. Seriously almost no crime. I would feel very comfortable having my daughters stay there.
Thank you so much for the advice@@RozierRoma
We love to walk but not all the time. Any thoughts on staying closer to the Metro, such as around the Colosseum? Spanish Steps? Circo Massimo?
Of those three the best would be in the Monti neighborhood near the Colosseum They have two metro stations that service the neighborhood. The streets are very fun to walk-through interesting and lots of restaurants and stores. I’m working on a video soon about Monti but that’s where I would stay if I wanted to be near the metro. The neighborhood is awesome.
@@RozierRoma Thanks for the response. This is our first trip to Rome and we wound up going with an apartment in Trastevere. Your videos were very helpful.
I think you will like it!
Any hotel recommendations in the atea pls ? Tks❤
Sure. Here are some.czcams.com/video/qVhgZI7TFQo/video.htmlsi=ZnRW1M-2CHzWMFja
How far is the walk from Trastevere to say the Patheon or Colosseum? Thxs
About 20 minutes to the Pantheon and 25 to the Colosseum. You can catch the metro and the end on Circus Maximus and save a few minutes..
I'm told by different sources that Testaccio is where many of the very best restaurants are located, where the locals like to frequent. Trestevere is more tourist oriented. I spent my final day of my first trip to Rome exploring that neighborhood and was somewhat underwhelmed. Too many fellow Americans and it was graffitiland! Wish I had picked Monti instead.
Lots of graffiti for sure. I spent the past 2 months in Trastevere {November and December} At that time of year not too many tourists but the restaurants are filled with Romans. Trastevere is much more walker friendly streets than Testacio. Both have great food options, For me I prefer Trastevere. It is better connected to other areas as well.
You have mentioned 2 best places in caption but shared only 1 that is Trastevere..
Which one is the second best location to stay?
Sorry if that was confusing. In the video, I do mention my number one pic, which is Torre Argentina/Campo dei fiori. That is my number one pic. I am currently working on additional videos right now with other areas to consider plus minuses of each. The first one should be ready in the next day or two.
I know picking up a few Italian words and phrases would be beneficial, but do most restaurants have English speaking waiters/waitresses? Do you order in Italian?
In Rome, especially in the city center everybody that deals with the public speaks enough English to get by just fine don’t worry
@@RozierRoma thanks for the reply
What are some good priced hotels.
The best advise is to travel to Italy in the low season when hotels are over hael off and if you are traveling in high season book very early for best deals. One option is to base your trip from Tivoli just outside of Rome. Hotels and Airbnb from 70 euros plus a great city and you can take the train into Rome when you want. Also try rooms for rent on Airbnb you might find a decent deal.
Been to Rome twice and didn’t like it at all, maybe change of location will help! Thanks!
Where did you stay? I have a great idea for you. Try basing outside of Rome in a small town called Tivoli. You can easily take the train into Rome and check out some sites, but Tivoli is a fun town with lots to do and see. Great restaurants. No crowds, just awesome. Next time I recommend you giving that a try
@@RozierRoma lovely idea, thank you! Not a fan of traffic noises and fumes, and I travel solo so enjoy some quiet.
Knowing that, Tivoli will be perfect for you.!!
Trastevere seems like a good location, but too much graffiti is not as welcoming… we decided to try Ludovisi, near the US Embassy… I hope it’s a good location…
Thanks for watching the video. Near the US Embassy are some very nice places but it’s not very centrally located but there are buses and taxis that you can get that can help you get around Rome. If you don’t like the graffiti, I suggest you take a look at Campo de Fiori, if it’s not too late
Near the Embassy there are some nice upscale hotels, and more sterile environment a little less authentic but still nice
I have lived in Rome and I disagree with you! Good luck with your show
Not everyone likes vanilla, but it is the number one selling ice cream in the world. Seriously though, if you have an opinion, let me know what you think is better area for visiting tourists?
