Use Thy Feet

For the past two blogs, we've all been talking about food in Rome. If you've done that (or if you could just imagine we did all those food trips), you probably have gone way too far your waistline. Oops!

So we do hope that you don't mind a little "exercise" to that. Probably with food and a bit of exercise combined, you wouldn't worry about your clothes shrinking on you. It just so happened that, aside from great food, Rome is also famous for one of the best tourist activities one should enjoy.

If you want a well-guided but fun and enjoyable tours around the city of Rome, you could use your feet. Yes, you heard that right - FEET. For in Rome, cycling and walking around the city to discover its beautiful sceneries is one of the things tourists enjoy.

Let's say you have stay in a great accommodation in Rome. You can start from there and go on a tour like you have never imagined it. There are tour agencies which offers you a biking tour around the city. You could choose between going around the city in a guided tour with a group of tourists or you could go and rent a bike and just go cycling around the city yourself.

What's good about the guided bike tour is that you will never get lost in the outskirts of Rome. You are with a group of people and you have a tour guide that would take you to key destinations of the city. It's basically like an ordinary guided city tour - but on bicycle.

But biking by yourself has an advantage, too. You are the boss of your own time and the boss of your own itinerary. If you know how to read maps or if you've been to the place before, you can surely make your way around the city without getting lost. Or (if in case you will indeed get lost - we hope not!) you could discover new twists and turns around the city. Who knows, you would discover a short cut!

Aside from biking around Rome, walking is also one of the famous activities in the city. People who just want to walk around from point to point can simple enjoy the breathtaking view of the city without compromising to traffic jams. Plus, it's a good amount of exercise, too.
