The audio guide for Rome was a great company during my walk in the city. I loved how he told the story of the ancient monuments and their secrets, from the Colosseum to the Pantheon. It also included lesser-known details, such as the history behind some small churches hidden in the alleys. In addition, there were practical tips on how to get around the city, which streets to avoid because of traffic and where to find the best views. It certainly made my experience richer and more meaningful.
Came to Rome in a whim. I had nothing planned and wanted to do some sightseeing and walk around the city. For me this was really cool. I loved listening to the audio and super easy guide. Ofc, theres to s of things to do and pay money. However, this was inexpensive and I enjoyed walking around. Def need good walking shoes.
