Been there | Tips http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. Sperlonga beach http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31427 The beach and sea at Sperlonga are cleaner, prettier and quieter, and only take an hour(ish) to get to by train from Termini, Rome's main train station. The beach is also shallow for quite a long way out to sea so it's a nice paddling spot for children or people with short legs.
Take the Naples slow train, which is at 49 minutes past the hour every hour from 8am and costs 6.20 Euros. Get off at Fondi Sperlonga and then get the beach bus (1 Euro) to the seafront itself.
It's worth leaving the beach for a couple of hours and wandering up to the hilltop town for a drink or a spot of lunch and a gawk at the view.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31427 Pre book for the Colosseum on line http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/25460 We arrived at the Colosseum and found a long snake of a queue. For ticket holders you can head for a different ticket office with no queue.
This is highly recommended especially if you have children.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/25460 Rome Apartments by Rome Sweet Home http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21365 www.chiostrodelbramante.it]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21365 Apartments Palazzo Olivia http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21043 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21043 Ghost & Mystery Walking Tour of Rome http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21037 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21037 Ostia Beach http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21036
A great benefit of this beach is that you have the chance to buy your souvenirs and gifts while you relax, as the majority of vendors will approach you and offer their goods without you having to move an inch. If this doesn’t sound like your idea of relaxation then there are also quieter sections of the beach.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21036 Palazzo Olivia http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/20050 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/20050 Too much http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18545 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18545 Bioparco, or Rome Zoo http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12994 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12994 L'Edera al Colosseo http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11928 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11928 La barba di Giove apartment, Fiumicino http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7916 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7916 Capricci Siciliani restaurant http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6342 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6342 La Pace del Cervello http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4583 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4583 Al Sogono, Toyshop http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3496 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3496
