Pick up the rhythm of this vibrant place as you admire centuries-old landmarks that draw visitors from all over the world. Browse the shops for that one-of-a-kind item, sample authentic Italian cuisine, raise a glass to the glories of ever-enticing Italy, chat with locals, and wade into La Dolce Vita as deeply as you like. When your wandering comes to a satisfying conclusion, make your way to the St. Peter Train Station for the relaxing express train and shuttle ride back to the ship.
