Visiting Rome with children in August is a special experience, unlike any other. When most Romans leave the city for summer holidays, Rome changes its pace: it becomes quieter, slower, and perfect to be enjoyed calmly.
If you’re looking for a more authentic experience, far from the usual tourist crowds, August is the right month. And there’s even more reason to choose this period if you stay with Now Apartments, in Via della Vetrina:
