Rome, paris and barcelona: your way, rome, florence, venice and milan: your way, more about rome.

Only in Rome can you sip cappuccino at a café in front of the Pantheon, buy grapes at a centuries-old market and have an audience with the pope — all in one morning. For a mix of spectacular art, grand history and exuberant street life, no other city comes close. It's no surprise that the food is rich and satisfying. Roman cooking is simple, rustic cuisine, perfected over centuries. Dishes rarely have more than a few ingredients, and meat and fish are most often roasted, baked, or grilled. And did we mention the nightlife? There's a bar for every taste in Rome, from wine bars catering to an eclectic crowd faithfully observing the Roman ritual of the evening aperitif to trendy dance clubs that don't get started until well after midnight.

The main tourist season in Rome starts shortly before Easter (when the greatest number of visitors flock to the city) and runs through October. It's neither too hot nor too cold, there's usually plenty of sun, and the famous Roman sunsets are at their best. In July and August, come if you like, but learn to do as the Romans do — get up and out early, seek shady refuge from early-afternoon heat, take a nap if you can, resume activities in the late afternoon, and stay up late to enjoy the nighttime breeze. During August many shops and restaurants close, and on the August 15 holiday Rome is a ghost town. During the winter months, especially January through March, you have a better chance of getting into the major tourist attractions without having to wait in line.

Top Experiences

Colosseum : This ancient stadium is an iconic landmark of Imperial Rome in the middle of the city. The largest amphitheater ever constructed and still standing today. It was used for public spectacles but fell out of use in Medieval times and has since been partially restored.

Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel : An immense collection of artworks that eventually lead into the Sistine Chapel. The chapel itself is not overly large and is famous for its ceiling painted by Michelangelo. Don’t forget to take a look into St. Peter’s Basilica which is right next door.

Crypts and Roman Catacombs : These are underground burial chambers of the first Christians created 2,000 years ago, surrounding the city. The tunnels are so extensive that a tour is recommended so you do not become lost.

Food : Cooking classes abound in this city, for you to try your favorite Italian foods such as pasta making, pizza and gelato. However, eating in the sidewalk cafes is just as pleasing if you prefer to leave the cooking to the professionals.

Villa Borghese Gallery and Gardens : This museum started life as a country villa house. The many sculptures by Bernini are a highlight. The gardens surrounding the building create the third largest public park in Rome.

"There are so many wow moments in Rome and you've really got to see all the ancient masterpieces with your own eyes to believe it. After hopping around all the icons, don't forget to take a step back with a gelato in hand and embrace 'la dolce far niente' - the sweetness of doing nothing."

Travel Director

Visit the famous Colosseum and see Circus Maximus

You’ll travel back in time on your Rome tour when we take you on a sightseeing tour of the city’s ancient wonders with your Local Specialist. Visit the mighty Colosseum and wander the historic walls of this ancient amphitheater, and see the Circus Maximus, where you can still imagine the thrilling chariot races and thousands of cheering spectators.

Visit St. Peter's Basilica

You’ll get to tick off a whole new country when we cross over to Vatican City in Rome. The world’s smallest independent state is the home of the Bishop of Rome (the Pope), along with St. Peter’s Basilica, the famous Renaissance church said to be the burial site of  Apostle Saint Peter, where you can marvel at Michelangelo's Pietà, a sculpted marble masterpiece.

Admire the Sistine Chapel

The treasures of the Vatican just keep on rolling on our Rome trips, and we’ll take you on a tour to the iconic Sistine Chapel in the Apostolic Palace, the official residence of the Pope. We’ll even arrange priority access to the Vatican Museums, so you can gaze up at Michelangelo's spectacular frescoed ceiling in the Sistine Chapel when it’s less crowded.

Clamber up the Spanish Steps

This monumental stairway is set in the heart of one of Rome’s swankiest neighborhoods, and you’ll pass by stunning churches, lavish hotels and the famous Trevi Fountain before arriving at the Spanish Steps, built back in 1723 and made extra famous by Audrey Hepburn in the film Roman Holiday. Wander up the stairs and be sure to snap some special photos.

Take a tour of Castel Gandolfo

We’ll take you on a spiritual journey to Castel Gandolfo, the summer residence of the Pope. You’ll get to visit the 17th-century Apostolic Palace which was opened as a museum by Pope Francis and see the beautiful gardens, walking along the same paths as many Popes throughout the centuries. We’ll even enjoy lunch in these stunning surroundings.

Our top 5 things to do in Rome

Our Rome tours will take you on a bellissimo journey to all the famous Rome attractions you can’t miss, from the Circus Maximus to the Sistine Chapel.

Castel Sant'Angelo

Originally built as a tomb for Emperor Hadrian back in the year 135, Castel Sant'Angelo has since been used as a prison, fortress and castle by the Popes and today it’s a fascinating museum where you can wander the halls lined with stunning Renaissance frescoes and stop by the terrace for panoramic views over Rome.

The Pantheon is one of the most breathtaking buildings in Rome and you’ll get to discover it with your Local Specialist. Built almost 2,000 years ago, it’s the best-preserved Roman temple in the world, and we’re sure you’ll agree with Michelangelo who once said the Pantheon looks more like the work of angels, not humans.

Museo Nazionale Romano

You can’t miss visiting the national museum of this ancient city, and you’ll love exploring this superb collection of classical art, archeological artifacts and treasures of the Renaissance. See the gorgeous frescoes and mosaics, thousand-year-old jewelry, 2nd-century bronze statues, and even mummified remains dating back to the Roman Empire.

Best museums in Rome

When you travel Rome with Trafalgar, we’ll show you around all the timeless Rome museums, from the ancient Pantheon to the Mausoleum of Hadrian.

Cacio e Pepe

Made with only four ingredients, cacio e pepe is the ultimate pasta dish of Rome. The cacio (sheep’s milk cheese), pepe (black pepper), and cheese (ideally Pecorino and Parmesan), meld with the pasta to create a rich, creamy sauce that is utterly blissful. Once a simple shepherd’s dish, cacio e pepe is now the most elegant pasta dish you’ll ever taste.

Pizza al Taglio

You’ll find some of the world’s best street food in Rome in the form of pizza al taglio. This delicious snack is baked in rectangular trays and sold by the slice in little cafés and hole-in-the-wall places. Topped with fresh ingredients like tomato sauce and olive oil, pizza al taglio is light, airy and totally delicious.

No trip to Rome is complete without a stop at traditional gelateria. More than just ice cream, this iconic Italian dessert is a fine art in Rome, made with seasonal flavors and the freshest natural ingredients. Just ask your Rome travel guide where to find the best gelato in town, and start your gelato tasting adventure through hundreds of bright and beautiful flavors!

Best food in Rome

We’ll take you on the Rome food tour of your dreams and show you all the best places to visit in Rome for the very best pasta, pizza, gelato and more.

What to pack for Rome

People packing for a tour

Italian phrasebook

You’ll find it easier to connect with the locals after learning a few phrases in their mother tongue, and you’ll love the feel of speaking this passionate language.

A fancy outfit

The Romans are famous for their chic and effortless dress sense, and if you’re looking to spend a night on the town, be sure to dress the part with your own elegant outfit.

Good walking shoes

One of the best parts of a Rome holiday is wandering the streets and piazzas, so bring a comfortable pair of walking shoes that can take on the cobblestone streets.

A blank journal

You’ll find pockets of inspiration at every turn in Rome, and a notebook will come in handy for collecting special memories, creative sketches and traditional Italian recipes.

Room in your suitcase

From the boutiques of Monti to the delicious market finds, be sure to leave room in your suitcase for all your special souvenirs, like a bottle of your favorite Roman wine.

Channel your inner gladiator with a visit to the Colosseum — a massive 1 st -century amphitheater. Follow a winding lane to the base of the Spanish Steps, or turn a corner to discover the Pantheon — an ancient Roman temple. Sip cappuccino at a cafe while admiring the Pantheon, buy souvenirs at a centuries-old market, and throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain — all in one day.

Cross over the Tiber River Bridge to marvel at Castel Sant’Angelo on your way to St. Peter’s Basilica, the grand cathedral that is home to Michelangelo’s evocative  Pieta  sculpture. Don’t miss a visit to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, where you can feast your eyes on Roman Renaissance masterpieces by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Bernini, Morandi and more.

Other popular shopping areas include Via del Corso and Via Cola di Rienzo. And for outdoor markets, head to Porta Portese in the Trastevere neighborhood to find antiques, music and trinkets.

With outdoor cafes, great pasta just about everywhere, local wines and delicious gelato, dining doesn’t get any better than in Rome. Perfected over centuries, Roman cuisine is simple and rustic. Eating out brings great pleasure to Italians, and for good reason. Join locals to dine on thin, crispy pizzas and mouth-watering pastas in neighborhood pizzerias and trattorias.

Colosseum in Rome without people in the morning

Take a trip to Rome on your Italy vacation.

Rome stands as The Eternal City, a living, breathing museum of epic proportions. This legendary metropolis on the Tiber River has a history unfolding over nearly the past 3,000 years, and its ancient roots have gifted the world with unparalleled architectural marvels. Walk through the Roman Forum, where the voices of ancient senators once echoed in the ruins of temples and government buildings. Visit the awe-inspiring Colosseum, where gladiators once battled. Wander through the grandeur of the Pantheon, a testament to Roman engineering and architecture.  Immerse yourself in the vibrant and good-humoured culture of Romans, who believe life is meant to be savoured, a philosophy most evident in the city's eateries. Rome is a gastronomic paradise, with restaurants, trattorias, pizzerias, enotecas, cafés, bars, and gelato parlors at every corner. Sip on a rich espresso in a bustling piazza, indulge in classic Roman pasta dishes, and raise a glass of local wine to salute la dolce vita.  Looming over this remarkable city is the Vatican, a city-state within Rome where spirituality meets grandeur. St. Peter's Basilica stands as an architectural marvel, and a visit to the Vatican Museums reveals a staggering collection of art, including Michelangelo's masterpiece, the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

A true architectural heavyweight, the 2,000-year-old Colosseum is often considered one of the seven “modern” wonders of the world.

Trevi Fountain

Rome is a city abundant in world-class water features, but none more stunning, or more famous, than the Trevi Fountain.

One of ancient Rome’s greatest achievements combines momentous history and inspired architecture.

Rome Vacations

It’s as if your feet are a personal time machine, with each step taking you further back in history. Ancient ruins stand as scarred evidence of a once great empire. Piazzas welcome gathering crowds today the same as they have for over nearly two millennia. And basilicas play host to worshiping congregations in an unchanging aura of grace and serenity. Around nearly every corner is a remembrance of what has made, and keeps, this city great—whether it be a marble statue, an aqueduct-fed public fountain, or towering obelisk. Rome was home to one of the greatest civilizations the earth has ever seen. Today, it remains a powerful religious, cultural, and economic influence. It’s place in history has been taught in textbooks, and its modern stature is evidenced in film and fashion. No matter how many Rome getaways you take, it's highly unlikely you'll experience even a fraction of what the historic city has to offer. From temples dedicated to the ancient gods to the most important artwork in human history, the Rome vacations you enjoy will undoubtedly be highlights of your traveling experiences. And, when you use Travelocity to bundle your airfare and accommodations for your vacation in Rome, you’ll save enough to throw a coin into every fountain you come across.

Rome Hotels

It doesn’t matter if you are planning a romantic vacation in Rome, will be in town for business, or are making the City of Seven Hills one of your many stops on an intercontinental odyssey, staying at the proper hotel can make all the difference. We recommend you research the following hotels in Rome before booking your travel:

  • Hotel Artemide – Just a short stroll from the National Gallery of Ancient Art, Teatro dell’Opera, and Rome’s main train station, the Hotel Artemide is in a prime location for exploring the wonder City of Love. The customer-focused staff adds to the 4-star luxury and ambience, while the chic décor compliments the historic façade. Pay close attention to the faces you see at the local market while you are out and about—you just might encounter the hotel’s executive chef purchasing ingredients for the evening’s meal.
  • iQ Hotel Roma – A modern hotel surrounded by history, the iQ offers customizable conveniences to international travelers. Enjoy breakfast on the rooftop terrace overlooking the Teatro dell’Opera before visiting the nearby museums, boutiques, and basilicas. When the day is winding down, enjoy a glass of wine in the lobby bar before retiring to your guestroom.
  • Gran Melia Rome – Situated in Villa Agrippina on the banks of the River Tiber, the Gran Melia is an ideal option for visitors with the Vatican on their itinerary. The glamorous property is a quick, five-minute walk to St. Peter’s Basilica, Castel Sant’Angelo, and all the pious wonder that is found behind the hallowed walls. Cap-off your day visiting Michelangelo’s marvels in the Sistine Chapel with a meal at one of the five on-site restaurants, or with a cocktail at the Liquid Garden or Nectar Bar.
  • Grand Hotel Olympic – Nestled in the shadows of Vatican City, this one-time papal palace is just blocks from the Vatican Art Museum and the Piazza del Popolo. Recently renovated, the Grand Hotel Olympic offers amenities, event space, and conveniences that appeal to business travelers and vacationers, alike. The Vittoria neighborhood is full of fine dining establishments, upscale boutiques, and inviting bars and lounges. After a day on the surrounding cobblestones, enjoy a well-rested night’s sleep in your well-appointed guestroom.

Major Attractions

If you are adventurous, a car rental should be one of the first things you set up upon your arrival in Rome by the end of your first day, you'll appreciate the convenience of motorized transportation. If you prefer to take in the sights while someone more familiar with the lay of the land is behind the wheel, a taxi may be more in order than a rental car. The one attraction every visitor must see is the Colosseum this massive arena once hosted everything from mock sea battles and gladiator fights to some of the most innovative plays ever concocted. Art lovers will also enjoy the Sistine Chapel. Want to see what the ancient Romans did to unwind before the invention of massage chairs? Make the Baths of Caracalla your next stop. Pace yourself, though, because the attractions in Rome are seemingly never-ending.

Recurring Festivals and Events

After a long day of perusing piazzas and frolicking in fountains, a session at the spa back at your hotel may seem like an inviting option. Relaxation is important, but don't pass up opportunities to attend events like Rock in Roma, the live music festival held between July and August yearly, or the Natale di Roma, an event that celebrates Rome's "birthday" at the Campidoglio. If you are a fan of art and Michelangelo’s’ work in the Sistine Chapel, you'll also love the Occhi Rossi Festival, held near the end of May.

Enjoy all of these festivities, attractions, and more by using Travelocity to find affordable Rome vacation packages. Planning an international vacation can be a daunting task. Travelocity can help to ease that burden. By booking your hotel and flight together with one of Travelocity’s Rome package deals, you cut the hassle in half. Plus, with the money you save on your Roman holiday, you might make the folks over at the Vatican green with envy.

What people love about Italy Tours from Rome

My sister and I did the Mama Mia Tour throughout Italy May 27-June 8. Each one of our tour guides was amazing, we had Carlo and Max in Rome, Giovanni in Sorrento, and Nedas in Florence and Venice. All of them were so fun to tour with, always happy to take our picture and since the groups were smaller we could be a bit more customizable with our experience and what we wanted to see during walking tours of the city! The guides were probably one of my favorite parts of the trip because after spending so much time with them they began to feel like more of a friend than a tour guide which was awesome! I really enjoyed the welcome dinners as well to help break the ice with fellow travelers and get to know the guides better. They all were very funny and knowledgeable of the location we were at and happy to provide food/activity recommendations for our free time. The only critique I would give the company is we were often not meeting our guides at the accommodation, we were asked to meet them somewhere in the city whether that was a train station or a specific street in the city. Being in a city I had never been to before this was a little difficult at first, especially when the meeting point was far away. I wish they would put us in direct contact with who we are meeting so we can message them if we are lost or running late, and who we should be looking for. With that being said, we had a couple times where we arrived at the meeting point and nobody came or came much later once I called the company a few times, which I think could have been resolved if we were just given the contact of who we were meeting from the beginning or making a WhatsApp group chat of some sort for the group to send updates and communicate better. But after one incident of a meeting point mix up the company was very accommodating in helping us the rest of the trip and adding a gondola ride in Venice for us to make up for a hiccup in Rome. Overall I would recommend this trip to other fellow travelers! You see such amazing things with amazing tour guides and I would do it again and again!
This was a wonderful unrushed small tour with a knowledgeable English tour guide very fun that I extended my tour. The hotels were very nice close to city centers and meals were flavorful delights. I loved the tuscany part of the tour. I would recommend this company.
The tour was comfortable and on time and our guide was lovely

The various neighborhoods are the most widely visited by tourists because they are where most attractions can be found. Traveling through the city is easy on foot, but you should also consider the Rome sightseeing bus or the Rome golf cart tours .

Rome can be extremely uncomfortable in the summer months (primarily June through September). In April and May, the spring temperatures are nice, the mornings are cool, and by noon you probably won’t need a jacket.

How to Get Around Rome

Getting around the cobbled-stoned streets of Rome is not hard. I’ve walked, biked, and bused throughout Rome and loved it! All are great ways to get around and the method you choose depends on how much time you have and your personal preference.

I recommend the  Big Bus Tour  or a Golf Cart Tour in Rome if you are short on time or if you booked your travel in the dead heat of summer (which can be intensely hot).

With these tours, you’ll see all the top Rome attractions with audio commentary in your language of choice. If you choose an open top tour bus, the added benefit is free wi-fi and for 3 extra euros, you can use your ticket for two days (it is worth it).

When it comes to seeing Rome, walking can not be avoided especially when getting to an attraction that require climbing hilly pathways or navigating ancient streets. In my opinion, being on foot is one of the best ways to travel in Rome.

Exploring the narrow streets can lead you to the most marvelous pasta, the creamiest gelato, or the most perfect pasta! I highly recommend visiting the Trastevere neighborhood for  Italian street food . 

Public Transportation

This is the best option for getting to a part of town that is more than 20 minutes on foot, especially if visiting a museum or park. Save your energy and use public transportation for less than 2 euros. You can purchase them at the tobacconist store.

You will need to validate your ticket upon boarding the bus (it’s an honor system). Getting caught with an un-validated ticket can result in a fine. You should also use a really good map of Rome. 

Bike or Vespa

Peddling around the city on your own time feels so liberating. Bike rental is very affordable and is an enjoyable way to experience the outdoors, get some exercise to make up for all the  Italian breakfasts  that you eat, and explore Rome.

You can find rentals for as little as 13 euros for 24 hours, complete with lock, for a standard bike. The price for e-bikes is higher.

Getting around on a two-passenger scooter is loads of fun!  Rent a Vespa to skirt traffic or explore outside the city. They can be rented by the hour or day. This will make your trip to Rome memorable as you travel in true Italian style!

How to Get to Central Rome from FCO Airport

There are several options to get from Leonardo da Vinci International Airport to the center of the city. I found the train to be the quickest and most affordable especially if you’ve had a long day of travel and want to get to Termini station.  

The most economical way to get from the airport to the city center is via a shuttle bus service from the airport. You can travel conveniently between Rome’s city center and the airport and take pleasure in a stress-free arrival or departure from the city.

The ride takes about 50 minutes and departures run from the airport every 30 to 40 minutes so you have time to collect your luggage. Shuttles stop in Terminal 3’s arrivals section. Look for the respective service at the arrival platform.

Terravision offers a shuttle service for less than 8 euros it’s quite popular. The buses are air-conditioned and there is no cost to bring your luggage aboard. It goes directly to Termini station with no extra stops. 

Another option is the public transportation system, which costs about 6 euros. The bus stops multiple times in the city center, including one close to the Vatican and one at Termini Station, throughout the 45- to 1-hour one-way trip.

Buses halt in Terminal 3’s arrivals section, at number 14. You can purchase tickets at the airport desk or online. 

A taxi is quite expensive. It will set you back almost 50 euros and the ride takes just as long as a shuttle service (about 50 minutes). You can find the taxis at the arrival level of Terminal 1 and Terminal 3.

The Leonardo Express train is less than 20 euros and runs every 15 minutes during peak periods. It is operated by Trenitalia and the ride takes about 30 to 40 minutes.

If you wait to collect your luggage, and then make your way to the window or kiosk to purchase your ticket, note that many others will be doing the same. Hate long lines? You can purchase tickets in advance and be ready for validation after boarding the train.

I can’t recommend a car rental unless you plan a day trip and need a set of wheels. Rome is completely walkable. Not to mention, even Italians know that finding a parking space can be a hassle.

Tips for Visiting Rome

I adore visiting Italy. And no trip would be complete without seeing some of the most iconic and historic spots in the Eternal City.

Don’t make the mistake (that I made on my first trip) and skip these incredible spots! Fortunately, I was able to see them on return visits!

Whether you are visiting the Vatican for the first time or returning because you tossed a coin into the Trevi fountain, these Rome travel tips will come in handy to make your stay enjoyable.

  • Be prepared! Read these tips on the essentials for an international flight .
  • Think comfort when flying coach , it will help you stay calm and confident.
  • Beware of scammers, pickpockets, and panhandlers. It’s a thing in Europe and it can happen when you least expect it. 

So, what are you waiting for? Book that flight to Rome and thank me later.
