Back in February 2015, I put up a blog post called, The Rome Problem. In it, The Traveling Professor talked about some of the problems of visiting Rome in terms of crime, harassment, trash, and public transportation. It seems that The New York Times has noticed too. They recently published an article called "Rome in Ruins", outlining many of the same problems The Traveling Professor pointed out 4 years ago. The problems are not limited to cities like Rome. Paris, for instance, has many of the same problems. However, travelers should be made aware of what they can expect the next time they visit Rome. Check out my blog post.
Everyone needs to go to Rome at least once. A small group tour to Rome is a staple on The Traveling Professor's Italy trips. Because of the crowds, Rome can be a difficult venue to maneuver. Lines at major attractions can be overwhelming. In today's blog post, The Professor will detail his favorite places to go in Rome and how to do those favorite places the right way.http://www.travelingprofessor.com/
