1 day in Rome Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the Eternal City, Rome is the birthplace of the Roman Empire, one of the world's greatest civilizations ever.

Start off your visit on the 23rd (Fri): delve into the distant past at Colosseum, admire the local landmark of Trevi Fountain, see the interesting displays at St. Peter's Basilica, then don't miss a visit to Piazza Navona, and finally admire the landmark architecture of Pantheon.

If you are flying in from Malta, the closest major airports are Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport and Ciampino–G. B. Pastine International Airport. In December, plan for daily highs up to 16°C, and evening lows to 4°C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 23rd (Fri) to allow enough time to drive back home.
