YouTube Video Description

Enjoy our cruise diaries series as we sail on P&O Azura to experience what Italy has to offer the cruise passenger. In this 4th episode we fulfill a life long aim to visit Rome. We cant believe weve taken this long to visit one of the most iconic cities in the world. We took a P&O excursion called "Rome on your own". And the coach dropped us right by the Colosseum. We needed to make a p,an to tick off as many of the sights in the city in the 5 1/2 hours we had there. We did it on foot and saw the incredible Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps and a few other incredible antiquities that are around every corner. What a place. But the day had a nasty surprise and our plans had to change quickly. Despite this we will be back and Rome was an incredible cruise experience. This series aims to share with you our actual experiences with footage captured as things happen. We hope you'll enjoy the fun, laughs and occasional minor drama. #cruisevlog #cruiseholidays #italytravel #pandocruise #azura #travel #travelvlog #rome #civitavecchia #romeonyourown #romewalkingtour Please subscribe to see more content like this - https://youtube.com/@CooksExplore?sub_confirmation=1
