15 days in Rome & Mexico City Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the Eternal City, Rome is the birthplace of the Roman Empire, one of the world's greatest civilizations ever.

Visit Oasi Naturista and Stabilimento Balneare Amerigo for some beach relaxation. Get outdoors at Cascata delle Marmore and Riva di Polline. Change things up with these side-trips from Rome: Duomo di Orvieto (in Orvieto) and Acqua e Sale - Stabilimento Balneare (in Maccarese). And it doesn't end there: make a trip to St. Peter's Basilica, appreciate the extensive heritage of Centro Storico Associazione Centro Storico, explore the ancient world of Colosseum, and steep yourself in history at Palatine Hill.
