    Getting TO/AROUND: Rome is a wonderful place to explore on foot because the historical sites are close together and the public transport leaves little to be desired. However, if you're lazy to walk and not good with the guidebooks, another option is to go on an open top bus.

    It's not the best way to discover Rome but it will bring you close to most of the major spots. It will cost about Euro 13 which will include the price of the ride & audio guide. You can hop on & off as much as you like or stay on board for a panoramic 90 minute tour.

     This very nice page brought back nice memories. However, Tiffany takes extreme exception to your use of the phrase "swing a dead cat". :) N.
