What to Expect

Join us for this must-see guided tour of Rome. This is the right tour for those who want to hit the ground running, see the historical sights, learn as much as they can about the Eternal City and take in the architecture along the way.

 

 

Meet your tour guide outside the Metro Stop Colosseo at 9:30 am. Our first stop is the Colosseum, where we stop to take photos and hear about the gladiators. We then head to the Forum, walking through to the Piazza Venezia and the well known Vittoriano. Making our way through the streets of Rome, we arrive at the tops of the Spanish Steps to see one of the most beautiful views of the Eternal City.

 

 

The sights only get more iconic from here. Next up is the Trevi Fountain, where your tour guide will show you how to throw a coin and make a wish. Then to the  Piazza Navona where you'll learn all about Bernini, Rome's version of Michelangelo. We then see the Pantheon, which is a highlight of this tour for its history and architectural beauty.

 

 

Now we take a short break at one of Rome's best and oldest gelaterias. Then we head to the Castelo di Sant'Angelo. There, in the distance, see Saint Peter's Basilica, the biggest church in the world within the smallest country in the world.

 

 

After all that, you'll have time off to explore the Vatican and charge your batteries. You will then begin your tour of the Vatican Museums, with a local guide, who will tell you all the legends, history and interests of this enigmatic place. Best of all: you'll skip the line, giving you maximum time in the museum!

 

 

Notes:

  • In order to access the Vatican and all churches, you must have something to cover your shoulders. Your skirts and trousers must also cover your knees.
  • There is a lot of walking involved, swear comfortable shoes. This tour is not suitable for people with walking disabilities.

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

We promote a youth market 18-39 years old. What does this mean? Does it mean that you have just had your 40th birthday so you won't be welcome if you are a more seasoned traveler? That we are going to card you at the door? No way! 

 

It means that we have a general audience of college students, backpackers, solo travelers, etc... that often fall into this category. The tours are more fast-paced, budget-minded and include activities for travelers to meet and connect with other passengers of the same age from all parts of the world who share the same interests, lifestyles, and travel styles. 

 

We are not strict with the age limit and people older than 39 are always welcome to join our tours as long as you are young in heart, have no walking disabilities and are happy to be with younger people. 

 

Our brand is designed around this unique experience geared towards younger travelers, so only passengers that fit this demographic travel with us. 

Don’t panic! The first step is to speak to your bank. All purchases made on our website will appear as purchases being made in Switzerland as our website booking provider is a Swiss-based company, so be sure your bank is aware you will be making Swiss purchases to avoid having your payment flagged as possible fraudulent activity. If you cannot resolve the problem with your bank, you should email info@italyonabudgettours.com immediately so we can proceed with a manual booking.

Let us start by saying that If you want to pay for one of your products but the Credit Card is in a different currency than the currency in which we sell our tours, then you have 2 options. This can be selected on the screen where you enter your credit card details by selecting "view currency conversion options": 

 

Option A

TrekkSoft does the currency conversion to accept the customer's currency, exchanging that into the currency in which we operate our tours.  This is called dynamic currency conversion since we display the actual USD price  (Or whatever currency your card is in) to you at the time of booking and this is the amount which is debited from your card without any further conversions or charges.

 

Option B

The card issuer ( your bank) does this currency conversion and applies a commission and processing fee. So this is when a tour is in EUR for example, and you are charged in EUR even though your credit card account is in USD. So your bank gives you an exchange rate which you will only see on your monthly statement. 

In either case, as we are not a bank, the conversion is not the same as you would see on the likes of xe.com since these are the wholesale currency values, these rates are not available to anyone in reality. 

The retail rates are always higher since there are differences in buying selling rates, and there are commissions and transaction fees when exchanging currencies. Whatever currency you pay, we will receive the amount as displayed in EUR

This could either mean that the tour is sold out or that it is no longer possible to book the date online due to the cut off time. If you are interested in a specific departure date e-mail info@italyonabudgettours.com and we will be happy to let you know if we still have available spots for that tour.

The hostels we collaborate with are very safe in fact in each room you can find a personal locker where you can store your valuable objects and bags. You just need to bring your own lock or sometimes you can hire it directly at the reception.

Depending on your nationality, you may require visas to enter Italy. You are fully responsible for obtaining all necessary visas prior to the departure of your trip.

Cancellation, unexpected medical expenses, injuries, theft, lost luggage or money can significantly disrupt and ruin your holiday. Italy on a Budget strongly recommends that you take our comprehensive insurance cover for cancellation, medical expenses, evacuation and repatriation expenses, personal accident, personal baggage, money, and public liability before you travel. 

Upon receipt of the final payment, your trip documentation will be released 20 days prior to your departure containing final details and info about the accommodation. You will also receive a day by day itinerary including full details & costs of all optional activities available on your trip. 

The optional activities need to be arranged and organized not later than 1 week prior to your arrival since they are subject to availability. You can either book the activities directly on our website or by email sent to our team. You can choose to pay in cash ( local currency ) directly to your trip manager on day one of your trip or by credit card if booked online.
