Day 1 Welcome to Rome!
The Aeroporto Leonardo da Vinci di Fiumicino (FCO) is about 30 minutes from Rome’s city center. You will enjoy round-trip airport transfers, making your arrival and departure stress-free. Enjoy the remainder of the day at your leisure. Consider taking a stroll to the Trevi Fountain to see it illuminated come nightfall; throw a coin in and make a wish - legend has it that if your wish comes true, you will return to Rome one day.
Day 2 Rome
There is something to see and do around every corner in Rome. Take the metro over to the Colosseum where you can spend hours exploring this ancient architectural wonder. You will feel the immense emotion of the ruins where warriors fought to the death as the crowds cheered from the stands that are still intact today. Next door, visit the ancient government buildings at the Roman Forum. You'll then want to head over to the Pantheon, where you can see one of the most influential and well-preserved monuments of its time.
Day 3 Rome
Pay a visit to the sites at Vatican City today! Explore the breathtaking St. Peter's Basilica, the world's largest Christian basilica. Treat yourself to a visit at the Vatican Museums, where you'll be surrounded by masterpieces of some of the greats, from Da Vinci to Giotto. Don't forget to stop by the show-stopper: the iconic Sistine Chapel ceiling, painted by Michelangelo.
Day 4 Rome
Today is your final full day in Rome! Consider exploring the Roman-Jewish Quarter today, home to the oldest Jewish community in Europe.

End your trip on a sweet note by treating yourself to a cone of decadent gelato, the perfect way to mark your last night in Italy!
