What to see

Ostia Antica

Some say this ancient Roman port containing Etruscan artefacts is more mind-blowing than any of the wonders to be found within the city itself. It’s also near the beach, which is handy!

Sperlonga

A popular beach resort with Romans and Neapolitans and just over an hour from Rome by train. Expect a party atmosphere and better pizza than you’ll find in the capital.

Ariccia

One of the countless little medieval towns in the hills surrounding Rome, Ariccia is famous for its Porchetta - a seasoned style of pork and speciality of the region of Lazio.
