For our next adventure we stayed at one of the best value campsites we have had. It was well located, had free buses to the train station for getting into Rome and the facilities were pretty good. Rome itself was incredible! There seemed to be recognisable landmarks at every turn – we saw (and climbed!) the Spanish steps, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, the Vatican, the Colosseum and lots of Roman ruins. Matt and Griff also managed a tour of the Vatican City and Sistine Chapel, while Wilf and I enjoyed a relaxing afternoon drinking Limencello and Aperol Spritz in the sunshine. The weather was crazy hot too, but we managed to survive and enjoyed our whirlwind tour of the capital.
