13 days in Rome Itinerary

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

Step out of Rome with an excursion to Villa Adriana in Tivoli--about 36 minutes away. And it doesn't end there: contemplate the long history of St. Peter's Basilica, explore the ancient world of Colosseum, explore the world behind art at Vatican Museums, and admire the local landmark of Trevi Fountain.

Expect a daytime high around °C in January, and nighttime lows around °C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 5th (Tue) to allow enough time to travel back home.
