VIA APPIA ANTICA is a over 2000 year old road built from Rome to South-Eastern Brindisi. You can walk for several kilometers on this road and see monuments, tombs, churches etc. No place in Rome without tourists but the best time is to go during the week. Take a bus from San Giovanni in Laterano. (at least, that's what we did 3 years ago, please inform before you go).

OSTIA ANTICA For over 800 years, till the invasions of the 5th century AD, Ostia was a bustling port city of merchants, sailors and slaves. Situated at the mouth of the Tiber River, the ruins today provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the empire's plebs. There are many interesting ruins, temples, forum and warehouses. Ostia Antica has a good museum, housing statues, mosaics and wall paintings found at the site.

TIVOLI Visit Villa Adriana, Emperor Hadrian's summer hideaway. Although the site was plundered over the millennia, enough remains to convey its general magnificence. Highlights include an island villa, the Imperial palace with its piazza of gold, and the remains of the baths complex. Renaissance glories are still intact at the Villa d'Este, famous for its fabulous landscaped gardens and mischievous fountains. Its prime attractions lie in the views of the gardens and fountains gained from its windows. In the gardens, water cascades into the air, pours down terraces, glides in horizontal pools and shoots from the mouths and nipples of statues. Besides these attractions, Tivoli is also just a nice place to wander around or shop; prices are cheaper than in Roma. I’d say this is a very nice day trip if you're staying in Rome.
