4 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.

Attractions like Colosseum and Pantheon make great kid-friendly stops. Get some cultural insight at St. Peter's Basilica and Piazza Navona. There's much more to do: explore the world behind art at Vatican Museums, take in panoramic vistas at Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Chiesa di Sant'Ignazio di Loyola, and contemplate the long history of Roman Forum.

In May, plan for daily highs up to °C, and evening lows to °C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 29th (Mon) to allow time to travel back home.
