  • Take the train to Pompeii for a short day trip. It is a 2 hour ride from Rome and a good break from the hustle and bustle of the city. Spend the afternoon exploring this ancient city covered by lava and ash. It provides a glimpse of how it was to live in a small city hundreds of years ago. Don't forget to stock up on amazing italian pastries from the little bakery next to the train station. It can make the ride back much more pleasant. And when in the train station in Naples.......run!

     Mamma mia!! You said bit? That's not very italian. Serenade is very latin custom. A great custom as matter of fact.
