Thank you so much for this. I am spending 3 days in Rome in November and the itinerary I put together is almost an exact match to yours! I received an email from Scavi this week about their new website and requested a ticket so am hoping it I get one, the time won't interfere with my plans. Also taking the train to Florence for the day, thanks to your help. Can't wait for your next video!

With your legion of fans, you’ll be at 100, 000 soon! Besides comprehensive guidebooks on Rome and Florence, I hope you’ll have a TV travel series about visiting Italian cities and also maybe have RomeWise, etc. branded travel merchandise. I’ve been to Rome and Florence nine to ten times so far and I’m still amazed at how much I learn from your videos and sites. Thank you! P.S. - I just visited your website and am eager to purchase another of your eBooks!

Congrats on the 40K.I hope you get to 50K really soon.Is that Talavera on your wall?Great video as always.

[rosannathomson]

Hi Elyssa.
Brilliant, as usual.

One surprising thing I found was the coffees at the 1st level of the cupola - magnifico!

Thanks for the places to eat etc.

My favourite tour of the colosseo was the night underground - intimate, informative, not hot.

Apart from Santa Maria Maggiore, Santa Maria in Aracoeli has become my favourite inside il centro storico.

[phyllisa]

Thank you for this wonderfully informative video, it's exactly what I needed! My best friend and I are headed to Rome next month and your recommendations are perfect! I am going to try to book a tour with the shortcut from the Sistine Chapel into Saint Peter's Basillica. 👍

[carolyniannello]
