Day 13: May 5, 2019
We've seen a lot of sights on our last full day of the tour, including perhaps the most spectacular of all - the Colosseum here in Rome. The day begins as always with breakfast at the hotel and then we jump on the bus and make our way into the city centre. Today we start at the top of the famous Spanish steps, a great photo opportunity for everyone and some great views as well.
We then make our way through the Cento Storico, historic centre, to the Trevi Fountain. It's a chance for the group to guarantee their return to Rome by tossing a coin in the famous fountain! The group then have time for lunch and their last chance for shopping before we meet at the outstanding Piazza Venezia before our afternoon learning about imperial Rome.
We meet Marco once again who gives us a tour of the Colosseum and the tour continues into the Roman Forum. I then meet them afterwards to walk them to the lively are of Trastevere. Unfortunately we get caught by the rain but luckily our restaurant are able to save us from the weather and give us an early dinner before we return to the hotel for our last evening together after saying goodbye to Caroline.
