Synopsis

100 Locals. 1 Eternal City. Your New Rome Playbook.

Forget the so-called experts and their cookie-cutter itineraries. This isn’t another guide telling you where they think you should go. Instead, we’ve gone straight to the source—100 real Romans sharing their favorite restaurants, beloved coffee bars, and secret spots they’d rather keep to themselves.

From hidden piazzas perfect for a sunset aperitivo to coffee bars pulling the smoothest espresso shots in town, this is the Rome locals actually live and love. No overcrowded landmarks, no overpriced tourist menus, and definitely no watered-down espresso.

With the Jubilee drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors to Rome, there’s never been a better time to skip the tourist crowds and uncover the city’s best-kept secrets. As the first in our growing series (followed by the London edition, with more cities on the way), this guide is updated every month to ensure all recommendations are fresh and all establishments are still open. So whenever you grab a copy, you can trust it’s the most current edition available.

Whether it’s your first trip to the Eternal City or your tenth, this guide is your shortcut to experiencing Rome like a true insider. Because why follow the herd when you can follow the locals?

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

We live in a world where every product or service you may want to purchase has already been reviewed online by thousands of satisfied and frustrated clients alike. From a toothbrush to a car, our consumer decisions have never been better informed. Yet, when it comes to travel and leisure in foreign destinations, there is a huge knowledge gap of how the locals live and play. In a city like Rome, renowned for breathtaking open spaces, rich culinary traditions and a formidable coffee culture, do you really want to follow the herds to the same-old tired places, infested with pretend gladiators and street vendors, to eat mediocre pastas at dingy tourist traps, and pay triple for a watery cappuccino? In this new crowd-sourced guide of the eternal city, 100 Romans share with you their secret spots, their top restaurants and their favorite bars. Savvy travelers may already know some of these recommendations, but most are surprising additions you will be hard pressed to find on the usual-suspect ‘trip advisory’ sites. Packed with curated suggestions of where to hang out, eat and drink in Rome, this guide will prod you to venture beyond the epicenter of the metropolis to discover the best hidden gems of the city, known only to its insiders. Romans love their city. They also love to play, to eat well, and to live life on the slow lane when the mind, heart and soul require it. This book is as much a travel guide of Rome as it is a love letter to a city from citizens who are eternally in love with where they live. Because for all the frustrations of its daily grind, Rome remains an irresistible seductress. Whether you are a seasoned traveler to the city, a newbie, or indeed a seventh generation Roman, prepare to discover this magical land in its truest color. A color as mesmerizing as its salmon-tinted evening lights reflecting on monuments and structures as timeless as time itself.
