You're at the Vatican. Soak it in!
It was very special having breakfast at the Vatican, especially because it was my friends milestone birthday. It would have been even better to have more time, but I understand they have other groups waiting. Loved the tour, I had been there before, but was extra excited and happy to see the Sistine chapel. It was closed the last time I was in Rome. Somehow I missed the big Vatican store. Be sure to get a map showing where it is if you don't get led there. We ended up staying in St. Peter's basilica extra time after the tour was over.

Pizza and Gelato - Fun to Make & Better to Eat!
Michela & Cristiana were fantastic hosts and instructors! The class was fun and they made it a very engaging experience for everyone (kids through adults). The space was clean and organized and had plenty of space for everyone. I highly recommend this experience for a unique experience while you’re in Rome!

Highlight of our Italy Trip
Our truffle-hunting experience with Matteo was absolutely wonderful and definitely one of the highlights of our Italy trip! Matteo gave us very clear instructions for getting from Rome by train. From there, he drove us into the beautiful mountains to begin our truffle hunt. Along the way, he was incredibly personable and knowledgeable, sharing so much about truffle hunting and the area. The forest was absolutely beautiful, and hunting with his two dogs, Wendy and Leilo, was so much fun. They were adorable and clearly loved their job! I was also very glad I chose to wear sneakers because we spent a good amount of time hiking through the forest as we searched for and collected truffles. After our hunt, Matteo took us back to his property, where we got to meet his other dogs. Then came one of the best parts of the experience: a beautiful lunch that was prepared for us right there on the property. Everything was absolutely delicious, and we left very full and very happy. We especially appreciated Matteo’s warmth and hospitality. He made the entire experience feel personal and authentic rather than like a typical tourist excursion. If you’re visiting Italy and have the opportunity to go truffle hunting with Matteo, do it! It was such a unique experience, and one that we’ll remember as one of the very best parts of our trip.

Fun Mosaic Workshop
Went with my partner to a mosaic workshop for a more unique and crafty experience on our trip to Rome and thought it was amazing! Our hosts were warm and welcoming, and showed their expertise as they walked through the Roman methods for making mosaics. They were also so helpful at guiding us when we were lost or unsure on how to make the design work. Really pleased with the outcome and highly recommend it as part of any trip to Rome.
