3 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.

Rome is known for historic sites, sightseeing, and nightlife. Your trip includes some of its best attractions: steep yourself in history at St. Peter's Basilica, don't miss a visit to Spanish Steps, delve into the distant past at Palatine Hill, and appreciate the extensive heritage of Piazza Navona.

For photos, reviews, where to stay, and other tourist information, go to the Rome tour itinerary planner.

In May, plan for daily highs up to 28°C, and evening lows to 17°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 15th (Mon) early enough to travel back home.
