3 Days Rome | Day 1

On the 1st day of this 3 day Rome itinerary, you start by discovering the historic center where you will visit the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, Plaza Navona, the Spanish Steps, and sights at Villa Borghese. The 1st day is less intensive than the other two days because we take into account the fact that you may have travel time on the 1st day to get to Rome.

You have breakfast at the accommodation, after breakfast you can explore the historic center of Rome. We recommend starting between 09:00 am and 10:00 am. You can walk everything this day.

If breakfast is not included, you can have breakfast at Trecaffe. This is a nice Italian restaurant that is very small-scale, which makes it cozy. You can order a panini or sandwich here with a good cup of coffee. The panini with tomato, basil, and mozzarella is delicious to start the day fresh.

#1.1 Trevi Fountain

Start your day with a visit to the Trevi Fountain. From the two accommodations that we recommend, you can walk to the historic center in 20 minutes. The Trevi Fountain is the largest fountain in Rome and arguably one of the most famous in the world. You must visit this fountain if you have been to Rome. It is a beautiful fountain, try to pay attention to all the details of all the statues. The fountain was designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini and built in the Baroque style by Nicola Salvi.

A tradition at the Trevi Fountain is to throw a coin into the fountain with your right hand over your left shoulder. If you do this, the saying goes that one day you will return to Rome. When you toss two coins you meet the love of your life in the city and when you throw three coins there will be a marriage or a divorce.

Did you know that 3000 euros is collected daily and is donated to charities.

#1.2 Pantheon

After the Trevi fountain, you walk to the Pantheon. The Pantheon is the best-preserved building in all of Rome. The Pantheon used to be one of the most important temples in Rome, it was used to honor the Roman gods. When the Catholic faith officially became the city religion, many buildings were demolished, but the Pantheon was converted into a Roman Catholic basilica. The unique thing about the Pantheon is that the circle in the ceiling is 8.7 meters wide. Also, it is the only natural light in the entire temple.

Tip: if you want to know more about the building, you can rent an audio guide at the entrance.

Tip: if you walk from the Trevi fountain to the Pantheon you will pass two churches that are worth a visit. These are Chiesi di Sant’Ignazio di Loyola and the Basilica di Sante Maria Sopra Minerva.

Rome Pantheon

#1.3 Piazza Navona

Piazza Navona is the most famous square in Rome. This is the main square of the historic center of Rome. This square has three well-known fountains and is surrounded by beautiful buildings. The square is built in a rectangle because it used to be a stadium. Today it is one of the most beautiful places in the world to see Baroque architecture in the open air.

Our recommendation is to sit on one of the benches and take your time to take to look at all the buildings.

After you visit Piazza Navona, walk to the Spanish Steps. Here you have to walk towards the hill Pincio. This walk is nice because you walk through narrow streets. Along the way, you will pass one of the best ice cream parlors in Italy called Giolitti. Order an ice cream here, these are delicious.

During this walk, you will also pass the Basilica di San Silvestro in Capite, if you have the time this is also worth a visit. We thought the mural around the ceiling was very beautiful to see.

Do you love to bike and do you like to discover a city through a bicycle tour, this is possible in Rome, read more information via the link.

#1.4 Spanish Steps

Once you arrive at the Spanish Steps you will find yourself in the shopping area, here it is a lot busier than other places in the city. The Spanish Steps are fun to visit because it is built in a different architectural style (Rococo style) compared to most buildings which are built in Baroque style.

The Spanish Steps are the widest steps in Europe. If you go up the stairs you arrive at a small square where the obelisk Trinita Dei Monti is located. The reason it is called the Spanish Steps is that the Spanish Embassy is located in the square of the steps.

Tip: From the Spanish Steps, walk to Terrazza del Pincio. Here you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city. You can also walk from the Spanish Steps to Piazza del Popolo. This is the largest city square in Rome.

spanish steps

Lunch at Antica Birreria Peroni

Go to Antica Birreria Peroni, a place that is very popular with the locals. Because of this, it can be very busy during lunchtime, so try to be here a little earlier (around 12 to 1 o’clock). Here you can order good pizzas for a reasonable price. The pizzas are very good because they are generously topped.

We recommend the pizza with fish because these are caught in the morning and brought fresh to the restaurant. If you don’t like fish, you can of course also order other pizzas.

If you are curious about Italian cuisine and food, there is nothing more fun than taking a food tour with a local guide. During this food tour, you will walk through the historic center and you will immediately find out where nice eateries can be found. You can read more information about a great food tour through Rome here.

#1.5 Villa Borghese and Galleria Borghese

From the Spanish Steps (or Terrazza del Pincio / Piazza del Popolo) you will need to walk a bit to arrive at Villa Borghese. This is the largest city park in Rome. In this city park, you can take a beautiful walk, see many buildings and visit a zoo yourself.

The reason to visit Villa Borghese is because of the Galleria Borghese museum. What makes this museum unique is that it is one of the largest private art collections in the world. Here you can see masterpieces by Bernini, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael, among others.

You cannot buy tickets on-site, you must do this in advance. You can buy a ticket for Galleria Borghese here.

It is also possible to visit the museum with a guide, if you are interested in this it is best to book this tour.

Gladiator fights and great games were staged in the Colosseum. The building is impressive and beautiful to see. When you walk through it you will be amazed at how big it is and what has happened. It is, without doubt, one of the most important sights of Rome.

Important is that you buy your ticket for Colosseum in advance so you don’t have to wait in the queue. This can be very long. The ticket we recommend is a combination ticket for the Colosseum and Roman Forum (next activity). Make sure to be at the entrance to the Colosseum at 08:30 am when the doors open.

#2.2 Roman Forum

After visiting the Colosseum and Palatine Hill you can visit Forum Romanum with a combi ticket. For us, this was one of the best sights to visit in Rome. Here you can see ruins of some of the most important buildings from the Roman Empire.

Forum Romanum was the most important center of the Roman Empire in the political, religious, and business spheres at the time. Here you will find, for example, the building where the senates discussed how they should rule the Roman Empire.

It is also important, just like with the Colosseum, that you buy tickets for the Roman Forum in advance to avoid queues. Use a combination ticket where you can also visit the Colosseum and the Palatine Hills. Check actual prices for Roman Forum here.

Rome Roman Forum

Lunch at La Taverna dei Fori Imperiali

Probably after you’ve visited the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and Roman Forum, it is time for lunch. Highly recommended is La Taverna dei Fori Imperiali. When you arrive you’ll probably think it’s touristy, but don’t let this put you off. The food they serve is delicious.

They have an extensive menu where you can choose between different sandwiches, salads, or pasta. We recommend ravioli di burrata. This dish fills what is needed because the rest of the afternoon you will be walking a lot. In addition, it is also delicious because of the rich sauce.

It is possible to make a reservation so that you are assured of a place. We do not recommend this because then you are running on the clock in the morning to be on time for lunch. The best thing to do is just walk to it and see if there is a table free. if not, you can eat something at one of the nearby restaurants.

#2.3 Monument Vittorio Emanuele

From the Forum Romanum part, you walk towards the center to the square Piazza Venezia. On your way to this square, you will see several beautiful ruins. Once arrived at Piazza Venezia you will see the monument, Vittorio Emanuele, this is the monument to the first king of united Italy. A very impressive building to see. If you pay close attention to the shape, it looks like a typewriter.

Tip: then walk to the square Piazza del Campidoglio where you have a nice view of the Roman Forum.

#2.4 Bocca dele Verita

From Piazza del Campigoglio you walk to Bocca dele Verita. You walk south on Via del Teatro di Marcello. During the walk, you will see the Capitoline Museums on the right and the Marcello Theater on the left. This theater is one of the oldest buildings in Rome, it was built even before the Colosseum.

If you keep walking you will end up with Bocca dele Verita, the mouth of the truth. You can put your hand in your mouth, the idea is that the hand is being bitten off by a liar. Nice to visit, because the temple that goes with it is beautiful, it is very small and intimate.

#2.5 Baths of Caracalla

Before you visit the Roman baths Baths of Caracalla you can visit Circo Massimo and Basilica di Santo Stefano Rotondo. You pass both places when you walk from Bocca dele Verita to the Baths of Caracalla.

Circo Massimo is a ruin that used to be a horse racing arena. Basilica di Santo Stefano Rotondo is a church that is great to visit because it was built in the 5th century and it has a round shape which is unique from that time.

After these two steps, you will arrive at the Baths of Caracalla. Standing there you will understand why the Romans were so famous for all their baths. The buildings are impressive to see because this was the largest public swimming pool in Rome.

You can buy a ticket to enter the sight to see the baths up close, in our opinion it is not necessary as you see enough from the outside.

#2.6 Park Giardino Degli Aranci

Before you go to the working-class neighborhood of Trastevere, you should visit the park Giardino Degli Aranci. You can enjoy a nice walk, however, the unique thing about this park is that before you enter you must walk past the park to the end of Via di Santa Sabina until you see a green door. If you look through the keyhole you will see the Saint Basilica, very unique! You can use the map to see the location.

#2.7 Trastevere

Trastevere restaurants

Diner at Pizzeria Ai Marmi

When you visit the working-class area of Trastevere, you should take the opportunity to eat here. This is the area where the locals eat. That is why you can also find the best restaurants in this district.

In our opinion the best place to go is Pizzeria Ai Marmi, this is a local restaurant. The menu is only in Italian, they help you to translate the map. If you are in Rome you must of course enjoy a pizza. The pizzas here are great, but the atmosphere and ambiance are much better. If you’re looking for a local eatery, this is your place to go. The advantage is that there are no long queues here.

3 Days Rome | Day 3

The 3rd and last day of this trip in Rome are mainly dedicated to discovering Christianity and art. You are going to Vatican City. The Vatican City is the smallest independent state in the world and one of the most special places in the world.

We recommend starting with St. Peter’s Basilica, as the queue at St. Peter’s Basilica can be very long later in the morning. Finally, you will visit the Castel Sant’Angelo. This day you can walk to everything.

If your breakfast is not included, you can have breakfast at Pergamino Caffè on the third day. This cafe is next to the Vatican where you can enjoy a coffee and breakfast.

When you step inside St. Peter’s Basilica you will probably understand where the proceeds of Christianity used to go. From the inside, you see nothing but treasures.

This literally and figuratively a highlight of your city trip to Rome.

The St. Peter’s Basilica opens its doors at 07:00 am, also be at the entrance at this time. For example, if you come at 10:00 am, you may have to wait for 2 hours, which is, of course, a waste of your time. It is not possible to buy a ticket because the entrance is free.

We enjoyed the spaghetti bolognese here, the sauce is delicious. You can also order a sandwich or a salad if you want to eat less heavy.

#3.3 Castel Sant’Angelo

After lunch, you walk to the Castel Sant’Angelo. This is an old Roman fort and mausoleum of the Roman Emperor Hadrian.

The legend is that this angel appeared to the Pope in 590 AD to end the plague that raged in the city at the time.

If you want to visit the museum in Castel Sant’Angelo, it’s best to Tickets for Castel Sant’Angelo purchase in advance.

Tip: if you like photography, it is worth visiting the Castel Sant’Angelo when it is dark. This will then be illuminated. You can also see the reflection of the water in the fort which is cool to photograph.

#3.4 Free time

You will probably have finished all the sights in the (late) afternoon and you still have some time to conclude your 3 days in Rome. We recommend that you look at the moment what you would like to do and don’t plan anything yet. You can revisit sights that you liked or visit something you previously skipped.

If you want to see even more of Rome, you can visit the Quartiere Coppedè district or the Capitoline Museum.

Diner at Spaghetteria L’Archetto

On the first day, we had dinner at Spaghetteria L’Archetto and we did this during the 3 e day because we liked it so much. Here you can eat real Roman food. It is a small and simple restaurant where you can order many different kinds of pasta. Do you want zucchini pasta, pasta with chili peppers or you name it then this is the place to sit down in the evening.

Day excursions from Rome

From Rome, you can do several fun day excursions. However, these are only recommended if you have been able to travel three days in Rome. We recommend the following two destinations:

  • Visiting Pompeii is highly recommended. During your visit you can climb the volcano Vesuvius or visit Naples. Of course, the main reason to visit Pompeii is itself. Pompeii is the city destroyed by lava.
  • Another must is if you want to see more of Tuscany do a tour that takes you through the countryside. This is especially nice if you want to see more of the interior of Italy.

What is the best time to visit Rome?

You can visit Rome all year round, but of course, some months are better than the others. We recommend going during the spring (March-May) or fall (September-November). During this period the temperatures are good and it is not as hot as in summer (June-August). Also, the summer is not ideal, because you travel to Europe during the school holidays, which can be very busy. Winter (December-February) is the quietest period, which is nice, but it can be cold there, making it less pleasant.

Is Rome safe?

Yes, Rome is safe to visit! There are highly secured officers at all popular sights if this gives you a sense of security. Of course, just like in any other city, you should use your common sense and pay attention.
