3# Walking gives you the best glimpse
When you come to visit Rome, even if you are short on time, walk is the best means. Don’t be persuaded by easy and convenient mass-tourism solutions such as panoramic tours aboard uncovered buses.

Therefore, to fully appreciate the city, it is necessary to go on foot.
