It's all real. You need to start by setting goals. Where and what do you want to see in Rome. For this, the Internet, there are corresponding independent tourism forums, buy such a guide "Orange Guide. Rome" or another similar one. Select the time of the trip. how you will fly. Prepare documents for the Italian EC.

You can go anywhere on your own if you want to. Rome is located in Italy, which means that it is enough for you to have any Schengen visa and a Moscow-Rome ticket. You can also fly to another city, for example, to Milan or Turin, but from there it takes several hours by train.

Tickets can be found on charter websites. For example, there are many cheap flights on turdom.ru in all directions. Any Schengen office will make you a visa. And about the trip to Italy, read the stories on the Internet, there is a lot of information. I wrote a similar article, click on my nickname and you will find it.

To magnus777! And why does a person from Ukraine need a Moscow-Rome ticket, think when you give an expert answer, look at least where the person comes from.

It's okay, it's my own fault for not specifying where I'm from. I'm from Kyiv, Ukraine. Thanks for any information I'll sort it out.

I type in Google the guidebook "Orange Guide. Rome", a lot of sites fall out, I open any, they have a lot of different guidebooks for different countries, but there is no one in Rome and there is no such name. She shoveled through all the pages, - NOTHING. Very strange . Help find the right guide.

Google just Rome and more sites will pop up, choose from everything related to independent travel. I bought it online and I really like the Orange Guide. They are for Milan, Venice, Barcelona and others. Cheaper is not always better. Go to the site - "v-evropu".

Why do you need a guidebook? How much time are you going to spend there? And what do you want to see? If these are popular attractions, then they are marked there on the metro map. Plus, every major bookstore has books on Rome. And in general, there are tons of information about this city everywhere! And how to get there you can read on the Internet. For example, we walked everywhere, stupidly on the map of the city, everything is close to the metro. A map of Rome can be bought at any kiosk or bookstore in Rome itself, or downloaded online and printed. I don't understand your problems...

We had a map of Rome right in the hotel room and not one. And I think it’s better to prepare at home in advance, and not along the way from the newsstand to the metro and bus! (were within 30 euros / person), which is easier. to, rayar! I am now rummaging through my preparations for Rome, there was interesting material on the transport of Rome and how to travel around Rome with an approximate route, but I described this in some detail in my report on Rome. If you are interested, then if I find this information, I can reset to your E-mail, if you tell me in a personal.

Yes, I have no problems ... I just always prepare for a trip according to the guidebook, study the country, plan everything in advance. And then I really implement everything planned and it’s not at all scary to be in a foreign country when I’m prepared.

And it is not very scary to be in a foreign country, even with limited knowledge of the language, if you are well prepared.

After all, we are talking about one city! Why read about the whole country ..? But about the city itself and there is a lot of information on the Internet. You will not read so much in any guidebook, since everything is given very briefly there.

to magnus! Were you actually interested in the guide I am writing about? It has developed routes for visiting Rome for one, two, three days, the transport system, food, shopping, attractions are described, and this is in a pocket book, which is very convenient to use without entering to bookstores in Rome and not buying cards at newsstands. And something is not clear: in one post from you - buy a card in Rome and that's enough, now there is a lot of information on the Internet about this city. So, you still need to prepare at home on the Internet or not? This, by analogy - either buy a bag of cream or collect milk and separate them. Different things. I liked this guide and I use it, you get by with a map of Rome. To each his own, I do not insist.

I also do not impose my opinion, I just offered an option how to do without a guidebook. And in this case, just the problem with his purchase. I have never used guidebooks and the information was enough for me. Again, it all depends on the purpose of the trip. If the guide contains everything in a row, then, due to physical limitations, it cannot contain comprehensive information about each attraction, etc. And if a person goes purely to see the monuments of architecture, touch the history of Rome and visit the Vatican, then the guidebook will generally be useless for him, but a book about Rome is just right. In general, to each his own. We advise who knows what, and it's up to the tourist to choose.

As for preparing for the trip, the answer is unequivocal: it is necessary to prepare! Before the trip, I read everything that I can find on this country and the cities that I am going to visit. That is, I read history, get acquainted with local languages, read reviews of tourists, etc. By the way, tourist reviews are usually the most important and relevant source of information about the country, since no book writes about the possible problems that a foreigner may encounter, especially in hotels. Therefore, I urge all tourists to share their experience with their compatriots, write their stories and travel essays, and answer questions from those who are just about to go somewhere.

During the discussion went:) what's the difference to prepare for the guidebook or the Internet?? You just need to get ready. But as?? Everyone decides for himself. We came to Rome in January. Since there was little time, we went to the Vatican. We went shopping. And flew home. Do I need to prepare for this? Not sure. I need to book tickets and a hotel. And there in place.

According to the place, if you didn’t look at my report on Rome, for half an hour I was looking for bus stop 81 to get to the Quirinale, this is not in the maps of Rome. I turned to the carabinieri, they couldn’t say. Then it turned out that it was simple. Naturally, you don’t need to go to the Vatican and buy something in stores and go home. Did you see Rome or did you think you saw it? Three days was clearly not enough for me. But I’m trying to explain, and I’m not advertising, the guide has developed routes for 1,2.3 days, and you prepare as you like, I don’t insist))))

We saw Rome since we were in it for the 26th time. We have already seen everything you need and you can see. We are not arguing with you. Usually we come to Rome by car for 10-12 days. Of course there is a plan. Who wants to can go on guidebooks. Who can not just read the reviews of people who have been and share their experiences. This is very valuable. In any case, this is a beautiful city that you want to return to again and again.

And no one argues. You have been 26 times, but for a person who is in Rome for the first time, it’s not so easy even with a local map, where are the stops, etc. Even after working out the route in Google, and having a guidebook in hand, I got on a bus from the Vatican and went the other way to the outskirts (the bus just became like that), I didn’t ask the driver, I acted arrogantly, I spent too much time. But I saw what I didn’t plan. )
