Day 13: April 2, 2024
Today we made it to Rome, the final stop on our tour! The bus dropped us off right by the Colosseum. After a quick bite to eat, we had a guided tour of this ancient arena with a local guide – walking through a place that's been around for about 2000 years was mind-blowing! We also checked out the Roman Forum and wrapped up our tour at Trajan's Column. Then, our tour director led us to the Trevi Fountain, where we tossed in a coin to ensure we'll come back to Rome someday! We strolled over to the Spanish Steps, passing by the ritzy Via dei Condotti, and ended the day with a delightful dinner, trying out the Roman classic dish, pasta alla gricia! Now we're back at the hotel, gearing up for our last day in Italy tomorrow – we need all the rest we can get!
