As most majestic landmarks are just steps away from each other, the heart of the city is best discovered on foot. And if you want to experience the city's dynamic pulse — renting a Vespa scooter elevates the adventure. Public transportation system and taxi provides a convenient alternative for longer journeys. We do not recommend driving a car.

The official language is Italian, but English is widely spoken in tourist areas. In central Rome, particularly around iconic landmarks, many locals speak English, and signage is often available in English. Major attractions have English-speaking guides, and museums or historical sites typically offer English audio guides or translations on plaques. Restaurants in tourist zones usually have English menus or staff who can explain the dishes. Outside of Rome, in smaller towns or less touristy neighborhoods, English becomes less common. Locals may not speak English fluently, and it helps to know basic Italian phrases (e.g., ordering food or asking for directions). Rome’s public transportation system (buses, trams, and the metro) has signs in Italian, but it's intuitive to navigate, and staff can often speak enough English to assist. Train stations and airports typically have bilingual signs. English is enough to navigate Rome comfortably, but we recommend learning some basic Italian phrases to enhance your experience, especially in more local areas or smaller establishments.
