About Rome Actually

Hi, I am Angela Corrias, after living in Rome on and off for almost 20 years, I felt there was a great need for an insider’s travel blog entirely focused on Italy’s capital. Being one of the world’s hottest tourist destinations, it’s natural that you are going to find Rome city guides everywhere online.

Rome Actually is different. We live in Rome, we incessantly explore the city, we always discover something new, be it a new restaurant, a new archaeological excavation, a lesser-known neighborhood.

Is it your first trip to Rome and you want to visit the most famous highlights? We tell you what and where they are. Is it the tenth time you are visiting Rome and you want to stay away from the crowds and discover new neighborhoods? We got you covered.
