Rome Tourist Trap Tips by TinKan

Pictures Colosseum Gladiators Review

If you want a picture to remember your trip by you can take it with some of the locals dressed up to look like Roman Gladiators.

The will charge you $10 for the honor of taking their picture. After a few each will ask you for more money.

Unique Suggestions: Just say you will not pay anymore and walk away.

Fun Alternatives: Take their picture when they are not looking....haha

Plaza Novona bar Piazza Navona Review

The cafes in the plaza are way over priced and will try to tack on more to your bill. We found the coffee to be good but the service received to be real bad and the waiter did not want to speak English to us even though we had listened to him speaking English to the table next to us.

Unique Suggestions: If you want a coffee or something else to eat do NOT go to the Bar Novona.

If it is the only place with a table then watch you bill and check it over twice.

Fun Alternatives: Go someplace else in the plaza.
