Trevi Fountain

The Trevi fountain is definitely a must see when you come to Rome. It’s extremely busy. We went around 1pm, which is probably one of the busiest times. We didn’t pay to go right to the front, but If you’re patient, you can get to the front before you have to pay. The fountain is beautiful, it’s obvious why it’s so popular. Lots of cafes and restaurants around the area. Lots of people talk about pickpocketers, and whilst I didn’t have any personal experiences with them, it’s definitely worth keeping an eye out, as everything is so busy with lots of people, it would be easy to get caught out.

Pictures from 8:30 before they start charging entry. Still lots of people but it's manageable. 7:30 would probably be much fewer.

The fountain is beautiful. Now you have to pay between 9am and 9pm, before and after these times it gets very busy, especially 9-11pm. I was taking photos of my friend and her daughter when I felt something moving my handbag and when I turned round a young man had his hands in my bag looking for my purse. Then 5 mins later my daughter caught him with his hand in a more elderly couple, so she shouted at him to stop, and he casually walked away again not saying anything. We took a photo of him running away as he was wearing a bright T-shirt and showed a policeman, but he wasn't interested and just told me to be attentive! They have no desire to help you catch them, they are more concerned in case you drop your ice-cream in the fountain. Lovely area, but hang onto your bags and phones!

An absolute must visit when in Rome. Don’t forget to throw a coin over your shoulder so you will get to go back one day. It took me 20 years but I came back and hope to visit Rome again in the future It is jam packed and very busy but 100% worth it
