GET TO KNOW ROME

A place to make your own.

Rome rewards a focused day. The city’s official guide points to the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona. Choose one main visit, then build a nearby walk around it.

Choose one major interior or archaeological visit, then add a nearby street walk. Keep time for security, queues and the route between areas.

Bring your Rome trip together.

Start with what you need. Keep the rest connected.

FIND YOUR BASE

The right neighborhood makes a difference.

Historic centre

Squares and architectureFlexible walks between landmarks

Popular squares and narrow streets can be busy. Choose a compact route rather than trying to cover the whole centre.

Prati and Vatican

A museum-focused dayShopping and a planned meal

Allow a separate journey for ancient-Rome sightseeing; museum admission and other Vatican sites have different arrangements.

Trastevere

Neighborhood lanesAn unhurried meal

The lively evening setting may suit a social outing better than a quiet retreat. Check the location of any accommodation carefully.

MAKE TIME FOR THE GOOD PARTS

Little ideas.
Lasting memories.

A few ways to find your own rhythm in Rome.

01

Choose one major attraction and confirm the admission rules.

02

Leave a separate window for a historic-center walk.

03

Keep a park or an unhurried meal as your flexible part of the day.

ARRIVE WITH A PLAN

Your first few hours in Rome.

Fiumicino’s Leonardo express connects the airport with Roma Termini. Plan the onward journey from Termini to your stay separately.

Termini may not be near your accommodation. Review the full luggage journey and confirm the airport on your actual flight; FCO and Ciampino are different airports.
