Why go
Layers of two thousand years stacked within walking distance.
Rome delivers ancient, Renaissance and Baroque sites in a single walkable core, which is why it absorbs a long stay without repeating itself. The trade-off is crowds and heat management.
Signature experiences
- Colosseum and Forum with an early slot
- Vatican Museums before opening
- Trastevere evening
