  • This isn't a warning just a caution. If you are going to the Colloseum and you are an E.U resident bring your passport. I arrived and only when I had entered was I told that EU citizens and/or residents can go in half price and children go free if you can show your passport.

  • In Rome the best place to cross a road is at a pelican crossing. The only problem is, when it shows green man/walk the traffic won't necessarliy stop. When it does show green man/walk you have to step out with purpose, then they will take notice.
    If you are new to this, do what I did when I first arrived in Rome. Wait for a local to cross the road, and walk over with them. At the end of a week or so you will fee like a natural at crossing roads. This sounds silly but really it isn't.
