More about Bjork
Bjork is a legendary singer with an amazing voice. She was born on Iceland in 1965, and she has had a fantastic career so far. But, it doesn’t seem to be over. She dares to do new things, and as she released her newest album Utopia in 2017, she gave everyone purchasing the album 100 Audiocoins as a gift (Audiocoins is a cryptocurrency). It is not at all as famous as Bitcoin. but it might turn bigger in the coming years. In fact, since the release of the album, the value of the gift has increased 3 times in value (it was originally 0,19 USD, now it is more than 0,60 USD), so who knows? Maybe in a few years, people will hunt for copies of the Utopia album, in order to get the 100 Audiocoins together with the album?
We hope you will have a fantastic time in Rome, and that you will enjoy the Bjork concert! If you have comments or questions, write them down in the comment field.
Have you got 24 hours to spend in Rome? That is far too little, but still, it is 24 hours. What should you do during your 24 hours in Rome? Here is a list of suggestions!
Rome is one of the most amazing cities on earth. It is a city packed with beautiful buildings, built upon layers of history. Not only does the city have much to show you, but it also has some delicious eats waiting for you. 24 hours in Rome is too little, but still, if that is all that you have got, then let us make the most out of your time.
You are going to be tired in 24 hours from now
If you decide to discover as much as possible in Rome in 24 hours, you will for sure get tired. The city is best explored on foot, combined with some cabs and maybe some public transportation. But, you need to be well prepared for a lot of walking, you should have a map in your backpack, and a couple of bottles of water. Are you ready to go?
The most important attractions in Rome
If you want to discover Rome in a lazy way, get yourself a ticket for a hop-on-hop-off bus. It is by far the most comfortable and most convenient way to get around in Rome, and you will not waste your time walking around on your own, trying to understand the map etc.
So, which are the most important attractions that you have to visit while in Rome for 24 hours? Here we have compiled a list of the most important sights.
In the Vatican Area
St. Peter’s Basilica.
This is a must-see in Rome. The Vatican museum is beautiful, but make sure to have a skip-the-line ticket if you want to enter, if not you will spend your entire day (exaggerating a little) to get in.
Castle of the Holy Angel
Combine this with your visit to the St. Peter’s Basilica. They are very close to one another, and this is a real beauty.
In the city-center
The Trevi Fountain
Everyone traveling to Rome needs to check out this famous and legendary fountain. It is said, if you throw a piece of money into the fountain, you will for sure return to Rome once again.
Pantheon
A fantastic building in the center of Rome. The architecture of this building is extraordinary, and one of our favorite buildings in all of Rome.
The Spanish Steps
These steps have been in the city of Rome for decades, and it is a very people place to meet your friends. More than 100 steps can be found here, and it received its name from the Spanish embassy located just nearby.
Next to the inner city
Monument to V. Emmanuel II
At the fantastic Piazza Venezia, you will find the grandevous monument built in honor of Monument to V. Emmanuel II. This is a beauty in itself, and here starts your fantastic journey into the Roman empire.
Forum Romanum
As you walk from the monument in the direction of the Colosseum, you will first walk next to Forum Romanum. This is a must-visit for people in love with history. Those who do not enjoy history will still enjoy this place, so this is warmly recommended.
Colosseum
You might miss out on all the other attractions in Rome, but if there is one place you just have to visit, that is the Colosseum. Few attractions are as famous as this one in Rome, and this is a perfect place to spend some hours during your day in Rome. You should arrive early in the morning to skip lines and maybe even order your skip-the-line ticket before arriving in Rome.
Where to enjoy your dinner in Rome after a long day?
If you would like to visit all the mentioned attractions, you will have to run like a crazy mouse for at least 12-14 hours. You will for sure be tired afterward, and the question is where to relax and enjoy a nice dinner? We suggest that you head in the direction of the Tiber Island. It is a very nice walk to visit the tiny island. Following your visit to the Tiber Island, walk to the Trastevere district (just opposite the Tiber island). In this are you will find several nice restaurants, and it is a very popular area to hang out and enjoy life in the evenings.
How to get from the airport?

Would you like to sing Hakuna Matata as you arrive in Rome, and not only sing it, but also feel it? Want to arrive in Rome with no worries? Let us fix your airport transfer!
Arriving at the Fiumicino Airport in Rome, or maybe the Ciampino Airport, might feel like a mess and cause you to worry. Both airports are big, and they are located quite far outside the city center of Rome. If you want to travel from these airports to your hotel in Rome, taxis are waiting for you at both terminals. But, how much will such a taxi cost? Who knows? You might find it cheaper to travel by a bus company from the airport to the city center of Rome, but when you arrive at the Termini station in Rome, you will have to travel on from there with a taxi, a bus, metro or something else. That might be cheaper, but it is not convenient and will cause you to loose lots of time before even arriving at your hotel.
What should you do? Order a private airport transfer right now!
How does it sound to have a driver waiting for you in the arrival hall in the Ciampino or the Fiumicino airport? As you leave the luggage room and enter the arrival hall, a driver will stand there with a sign with your name on. He will take you straight to the parked car, pay for his parking, and leave the airport with your hotel as the next stop. It couldn’t be easier and more convenient than that, and of course… no worries!
What makes this a Hakuna Matata solution is the fact that you pay a set fee. There is no need to worry about a driver fooling around with you. When you book an airport transfer with us, you get a confirmation letter sent as a .pdf to your email. In this confirmation you will see the amount to be paid and also a contact number which you can call in case there should be any trouble (and yes, the operator speaks English).
