Pickpockets and Purse-Snatchers: Keep your hand on your wallet!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Yes, the usual warning - be very wary of pickpockets, especially when catching public transport or when in one of the main tourist areas in Rome.

    We were on a crowded bus and witnessed a pickpocket in action - the person standing next to us was silly enought to have their wallet in their back pocket and if we hadn't yelled out, they would have lost it!

    Just be sensible and alert.

     Good page. Piazza Barberini; not Berberini. Ciao!

     I so glad someone else had this same experience. I thought I was only me who found finally reaching the Sistine Chapel anti-climatic. The museum on the way was much more spectacular.

     We happened to trip across this restaurant along our way back from the Spanish Steps. Our host, Amadeus, bent over backwards to make our dinner PERFECT. I would highly suggest trying the stuffed olive antipasto and the cold potatoes... a true delicacy!

     Sue--why are you rating these restaurants so highly when you didn't even like your lunch. This is like the 6th review where you put a lackluster review with a high number of stars;
