Day Trip from Rome by Car: A Fairytale Visit to the Giardino di Ninfa
I must say, I have never received more DMs on Instagram than when I posted pictures of Giardino di Ninfa on my stories. Minutes after posting, I received a flood of messages asking me where this amazing place was, a place that looks like it came straight out of a fairytale. I am the first to admit that those messages were really my fault, because professional blogger that I am, in my haste to share so much beauty with the world, I completely forgot to tag the location.
You might think I was trying to gatekeep, but the opposite is true, so to make it up to you, I am sharing this extensive article.
In this blog post, I will tell you all about Giardino di Ninfa, why you should visit, when the best time to visit is, where to buy tickets, and how to get there. I hope after this you will feel inspired to visit for yourself, because spoiler, it is really worth it.

It might not have been every little girl’s dream to be a princess, but it was definitely mine. Every once in a while, I find myself in places that transport me to a universe where that dream might have been possible, and the Reggia di Caserta is one of those places.

In this blog article, I will tell you everything you need to know about visiting the Reggia di Caserta, from the palace itself to the incredible gardens and how to get there, so you too can feel like a princess (or prince, king, or queen) for a day.
Day Trip from Rome: Why Lanuvio Is a Hidden Gem in the Castelli Romani
As you might have noticed from my latest blog posts, it is officially day trip season, and this time I have another hidden gem for you. Lanuvio is a small town about thirty kilometres southeast of Rome, and it is famous for being the birthplace of not one, but two Roman emperors.
Just like Castel Gandolfo, Lanuvio is located in the Castelli Romani area, which makes it a perfect mix of history, stunning views, and of course good food. In this blog post, I will tell you all about Lanuvio, and hopefully inspire you to visit this beautiful town yourself.
Day Trip from Rome: What to See in Anguillara Sabazia
By now, I think we all know that I am a big fan of day trips. There is a lot to see and do in Rome (probably more than you can fit into a lifetime), but sometimes it is nice to escape the city for a bit, to a place close by where you can breathe fresh air and let your mind roam free.
Today I will take you with me to Anguillara Sabazia, a charming town located on Lago di Bracciano, about 30 km from Rome. If you want to know everything from a bit of history to how to get there, you are in the right place.
