Where to go
The city of Rome offers so much to explore, as it is home to landmarks including the Colosseum, as well as the Vatican City and countless examples of stunning architecture. Hours could be spent sampling Italian cuisine in courtyard cafes in the city, or you could drive to the Italian coast for beautiful Mediterranean views.
Nearby Ciampino Airport
Less than 20 minutes from Ciampino Airport is Lake Albano, a body of water that has naturally formed in a volcanic crater and offers some stunning scenery. Around 40 minutes' drive from the airport is Pomezia, which is home to Zoomarine, a water park complete with rides and sea life, including dolphin shows.
Longer drives
Just over an hour's drive from Ciampino Airport is Latina, where you'll find the medieval Castello Caetani and the 12th century Gothic Fossanova Abbey. Meanwhile, Florence can be reached by car in just over three hours and Naples is around a two-hour, 15-minute drive away.
Eating and drinking
Italian cuisine is loved around the world, but it's all the more special when eaten in the country itself. The nation is the proud home of dishes including spaghetti carbonara, pizza, bruschetta and gelato, while the cappuccino and fabulous local wine are among its signature beverages.
Things to do
The Vatican City is a separate city to Rome and features the Vatican Museums, which house approximately 70,000 artworks and sculptures collected by past Popes. The Sistine Chapel with its ceiling exquisitely decorated by Michelangelo can also be seen here. The Roman Forum ruins are also well worth a visit.
Sightseeing
The Colosseum is one of the most recognisable landmarks in the world, let alone in Rome, so this is a must-visit. The Pantheon, which was built between 118 and 128AD is also a tourist hotspot, as is the Trevi Fountain, yet another example of breath-taking historic architecture.
