Reply To: Ancient Rome tour – points?

[masaccio]

Unrelated to points, brace yourself for long queues. Rome has become overrun by tourists in the past 10 years.

Once upon a time you could just walk into the Pantheon. Now there is post office queueing snaking through the piazza.

If you want Ancient Rome, Ostia is a great trip. We enjoyed it a lot more than the Fora but it was quite a while back and it might be overrun too.
