Rome I: Travel Guide - Audio Europe: Italy (Venice, Florence, Rome)

City buried by a volcano.  
     Stopped in its tracks by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in a.d. 79, Pompeii offers the best look anywhere at what life in Rome must have been like 2,000 years ago. An entire city of well-preserved ruins is yours to explore. Imagine the streets lined with stalls and jammed with customers from sunup to sundown, as chariots vied with shoppers for street space. On this three-hour tour, you'll start at the Porta Marina and continue along Pompeii's streets exploring typical homes and businesses; the Forum, basilica, public baths, brothels, ampitheater and more. Don't forget to download the handy PDF companion map.
     Sightseeing nitty gritty: Cost: €11, or €20 combo-ticket includes Herculaneum (called Ercolano) and three lesser sites (valid 3 days). 
     Hours: Daily April–Oct 8:30–19:30, Nov–March 8:30–17:00 (last entry 90 min before closing). 

     Updated in 2023. Excerpted from Rick Steves' Rome 2010.

Modern bustle, old sights.  
     Athens' pedestrian-friendly center hums with trendy boutiques and atmospheric cafes. Get oriented to the sprawling city while exploring Athens' rich history and rubbing shoulders with Athenians today.
     Starring: Candlelit Orthodox churches, dusty Roman ruins, Acropolis views, and the chaotic streets of Athens.
     Practicalities: The walk starts at Syntagma Square, meanders through the Plaka, skirts Acropolis hill for great views, and ends at Monastiraki Square, in the center of the tourist action. The walk is best in the morning or evening, since many historic churches are closed from 1:00 to 5:00. Wearing shorts inside churches is frowned upon but tolerated. Allow at least two hours for this walk.
