Ciao a tutti, my discerning travelers! Prepare yourselves for an unforgettable Roman holiday, a prelude to your Helsinki adventure. This itinerary, designed for two sophisticated couples, promises a blend of historical intrigue, culinary delights, and luxurious experiences. Let's dive into the Eternal City!

Our Roman escapade begins with a private chauffeured transfer from Fiumicino Airport (FCO) to your opulent hotel, the Hotel de Russie, a Rocco Forte gem. (Approx. €100 each way).

Day two awakens us to the wonders of Ancient Rome.

Lunch is a refined affair at La Pergola, a three-Michelin-starred restaurant offering breathtaking panoramic views. (€800 per couple, wine included).

The afternoon is dedicated to uncovering Vatican City's secrets. We'll explore St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums, including the Sistine Chapel (guided tour: €300 total including skip-the-line tickets), with a focus on the art historical context and hidden symbols – a blend of art and detective work, naturally. Dinner will be a traditional Roman feast at Armando al Pantheon, known for its cacio e pepe. (€200 per couple).

Day three finds us exploring the charming Trastevere neighborhood, with its cobblestone streets and artisan workshops. A leisurely stroll leads us to the beautiful Piazza Navona. (Transportation within the city: Utilize taxis and occasional Uber rides, budget approx. €100 total for the three days). Enjoy a cooking class learning to make authentic pasta (€250 per couple, including ingredients and wine) followed by indulging in your creations. A final Roman dinner at Roscioli Salumeria con Cucina will be the perfect end to your Roman experience. (€250 per couple).

Rome in summer boasts warm, sunny days (highs around 30°C, 86°F) and pleasant evenings. Expect bustling crowds, but with a little planning, our itinerary ensures a smooth and luxurious experience. You will find Romans to be generally friendly and welcoming to tourists, and the atmosphere is vibrant and energetic, filled with the sounds of scooters, conversations, and lively street musicians. The city's architecture is a beautiful blend of classical, baroque, and renaissance styles. The fragrance of freshly baked bread and blooming jasmine fills the air. Typical Roman pets include small dogs, and you'll see a variety of plants, including oleander, bougainvillea, and cypress trees.

Total estimated cost for the Roman portion of your trip (for two couples): €4,500 (excluding flights and accommodation). Remember, prices are estimates and can fluctuate. Enjoy your luxurious Roman adventure!
