Ostia Antica is an extremely underrated attraction. This Roman port is incredibly well preserved, so much so that you’ll have an easy time imagining what life was like so many centuries ago.

Any trip to Rome has to include the Coliseum. The attraction has countless tour guides, so you’ll have a hand in appreciating the cultural and historical importance of this monument.
