Travel Better, Cheaper, Longer
Last Updated: September 13, 2023
Considered the center of the western world for centuries, Rome is the birthplace of Caesar and home to the Catholic Church. It’s also bursting at the seams with ancient historic ruins and tons of delicious restaurants (I particularly love Trastevere for food), bars, and world-class shopping.
Here you walk down the street and see modern buildings next to ruins dating back thousands of years.
It’s a city filled with life, beauty, and charm that appeals to travelers of all stripes. Backpacking here is popular with budget travelers on Eurotrips, history buffs come to explore the ruins, couples visit Rome on honeymoons, and the jet-set splash out on the city’s upscale dining and nightlife.
No matter your interests, Rome has you covered.
This budget travel guide to Rome can help you plan your trip, navigate the endless amount of sites and attractions, learn how to get around in the chaos, and save money in one of the most expensive cities in Italy !
Even though the line of tourists can seem endless, the Colosseum is not to be missed. Built in the 1st century CE, it is nearly 2,000 years old and was the largest amphitheater in the entire Roman Empire (it could hold 50,000-80,000 people). During the Roman Empire, it was used for gladiatorial contests and other public events including animal hunts, dramatic plays, executions, and military re-enactments. From the Middle Ages onwards, it was repurposed into workshops, housing, and even a Christian shrine. Admission is 16 EUR for a ticket that offers 24-hour access to the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum (though not the Colosseum’s arena). A two-day ticket with access to all areas (including the arena) is 22 EUR.
For an in-depth tour with special access to the arena floor, book a tour with Walks of Italy . They run the best tours in the city and use expert local guides who ensure you have fun and learn a ton. I always take their tours when I’m in Rome.
The Roman Forum was the seat of Ancient Rome. It was the center of Roman public life and the place from which Rome administered its empire. Today, the forum is a two-hectare (five-acre) site filled with ruins of countless important buildings amongst which you can wander around. Next to the Forum is Palatine Hill, where the Roman aristocracy lived. Admission to both is 16 EUR or 22 EUR (depending on which combination ticket you purchase). It is also worth getting a guide to give you context and bring the ruins to life. You can book a tour with priority skip-the-line access for 64 EUR.
Vatican City is an independent city-state surrounded by the city of Rome. It gained its full independence from Italy in 1929 and is the smallest city-state in the world. Don’t leave Rome without spending some time here to see the home of the Pope, St. Peter’s Basilica, the Sistine Chapel, and all of the wonderful museums. (Please dress modestly as the Basilica has a strict dress code). Tickets are 17 EUR while skip the line tickets cost around 27 EUR. Keep in mind that tickets sell out weeks in advance (especially in the high season, so you’ll want to plan this one in advance).
If you want a behind-the-scenes tour with VIP access, book the Key Master’s Tour of the Vatican . You’ll get to help unlock the chapel in the morning, giving you access to the Vatican before all the other tourists enter. It’s an amazing, unique opportunity with limited space so be sure to sign up in advance!
The 18th-century Trevi Fountain was built at the ending point of the aqueduct that supplied ancient Rome with water from the surrounding countryside. Designed by Roman architect Nicola Salvi and composed largely of stone from a quarry just 35 kilometers (22 miles) from the city, the Baroque fountain is a true emblem of Rome and has been featured in numerous films. It is always crowded, especially at night when couples come for a romantic picture. The best time to see this beautiful fountain is before breakfast when the crowds are thin. Tradition says that if you throw a coin over your left shoulder into the fountain, you’ll find your way back to Rome. (The thousands of euros thrown into the fountain each day are donated to charity).
Other things to see and do in rome, 1. take a free walking tour.
Walking tours are a wonderful way to learn about a city. I recommend Rome’s Ultimate Free Walking Tour or New Rome Free Tours. Their tours cover all the highlights and can introduce you to the city on a budget. Just be sure to tip your guide at the end!
If you’re looking for a paid guided tour that goes above and beyond, check out Walks of Italy . They have expert guides and can get you behind the scenes at the city’s best attractions. They’re my go-to walking tour company!
Rome has a ton of churches so don’t hesitate to wander into them as you pass by to take in the art, sculptures, decorations, and stained glass. The Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore, dating back to 440 CE, is one of the most impressive. It’s covered in 5th-century mosaics which display 36 scenes from the Old Testament. Other noteworthy churches include the Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, one of the few Gothic churches in Rome and known for its deep blue vaulted ceiling; and San Giovanni in Laterano, the official cathedral of Rome which apparently is home to the heads of St. Peter and St. Paul.
The ruins of the ancient Rome port of Ostia Antica are well worth a visit. About 2,000 years ago, this place was a bustling commercial center and home to 60,000 people. Now you can wander the ruins of the docks, apartments, mansions, baths, and warehouses. You should plan at least a half-day for this trip. Entry is 12 EUR. City Wonders runs half-day tours for around 58 EUR.
The Pantheon looks today much like it did nearly 2,000 years ago before it became a church (it was originally a Roman temple). Hadrian built it over Agrippa’s earlier temple, and it has been around since 125 CE. As soon as you walk through the heavy bronze doors and across the marble floors, you can look up and marvel at the largest unreinforced dome ever built. It’s by far one of the best-preserved buildings in the world, as its been in use continuously since its construction. Entry is free.
The Spanish Steps, built in the 1720s, are a long and grand staircase in Rome with the Piazza di Spagna at its base and Trinità dei Monti looming at the top. While the Spanish Steps were once a social hub on which you could hang out and people watch, sitting on the steps is no longer allowed. This is part of new preservation measures enacted in 2019, intended to ensure that the monument will be around for generations to come. While you can’t linger on the steps, visiting this iconic sight is a must, and you can still climb them to get to the top.
If you enjoy art museums, Rome will not disappoint. There are a ton of great ones here, several of which are some of the highest-ranking in the world. The Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna is a good starting point as it is home to several Italian masterpieces. The Galleria Borghese is also excellent as it boasts a garden villa filled with Bernini sculptures and artwork from Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian, and other masters. Cardinal Scipione Borghese originally commissioned this collection. For something different, check out MAXXI, Rome’s first national museum devoted entirely to contemporary art.
This is a 10-day event that occurs every May. During this cultural heritage week, all governmentally owned and operated landmarks, museums, and archeological sites offer free admission. There aren’t any other deals better than this! Be forewarned, these sites get really crowded so arrive early.
Aside from beautiful auditorium complexes, Rome often hosts world-class operas and concerts performed by international musicians. The Olympic Stadium is a hotspot for summer concerts and the Auditorium in Viale Pietro de Coubertin and at Parco della Musica holds events year-round. Ticket prices vary but expect to pay at least 25 EUR.
This structure was built as a mausoleum for Emperor Hadrian at the end of the 1st-century. During the course of history, it has also served as a papal residence and a prison. As you may know from The Da Vinci Code , there’s a passageway here that runs into the Vatican. It was designed as an escape passage for the Pope in case of an emergency, and it was actually used in 1527 by Pope Clement VII. You can visit the castle and look around the exhibits; there are seven levels in total. The Terrace of the Angel has some amazing city views. Admission is 14 EUR while Get Your Guide offers reserved tickets for 23 EUR.
Rome has three major sets of catacombs that are open to the public – the Catacombs of Praetextatus, the Catacombs of San Sebastiano, and the Catacombs of San Callisto. Some of the underground crypts are adorned with sculptures and frescoes. San Callisto is the most popular, with a labyrinth of galleries extending about 19 kilometers (12 miles) long and 20 meters deep. Admission to each catacomb is 8 EUR.
If you’re a foodie, taking a cooking class in Rome is a must. I like Walks of Italy as they offer some my favorite cooking classes, including a pasta making class. Their classes are around 3 hours each and are super insightful. You’ll not only have fun but you’ll learn a lot too. Prices vary but expect to spend around 50-90 EUR. Eat and Walk Italy runs tours for around 60 EUR.
This ancient road connects Rome all the way to Brindisi. It was finished in 312 BCE and it’s so well preserved you can see the ruts in the stones left by chariots. There are lots of interesting highlights along the way, including the Catacombs of San Callisto and a huge mausoleum for Cecilia Metell, a Roman noblewoman. A lot of people rent a bike to pedal the path, but I think walking is the best way to go. You’ll be following in the footsteps of the ancient Romans! If you’d prefer a tour, Walks of Italy runs an Ancient Rome walking tour that covers the Appian Way (as well as the Park of the Aqueducts below — and much more!).
This large, green park is part of the Roman Appian Way and home to some of the ancient aqueducts that once carried millions of tons of water into the city from the mountains. Although the park is located on the outskirts of the city, it’s a really great place to go and just hang out with the locals. Pack a lunch and a bottle of wine, and enjoy a lazy afternoon in the shade of some 2,000-year-old monuments.
This is one of the most beautiful public spaces in Rome. It’s home to Bernini’s Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, with its stunning statues representing the great rivers of the world. The entire oval-shaped piazza is lined with restaurants, gelaterias, shops, and the Museo di Roma. Nearby, you’ll find Via della Pace, one of the city’s most photogenic streets. Pull up a chair at a sidewalk cafe and take it all in.
Spending an afternoon getting lost in the maze of cobblestone streets in Centro Storico is one of the best free things you can do in Rome. Wind your way through the narrow alleyways and streets, admire the churches filled with Baroque art, pause for a coffee, and do some shopping at the many boutiques.
Gianicolo (or Janiculum) Hill offers the best views over Rome. It’s a famous spot for young lovers and tourists and from here you can see some of the city’s best attractions, including Palazzo Venezia and the Spanish Steps. It’s beautiful at dusk, but if you come in during the day, prepare for the cannon firing at noon (it has been happening daily since 1904).
To learn more about the history and culture behind Rome’s cuisine, take a food tour. It’s the best way to eat your way around the city sampling the best eats Rome has to offer while learning what makes the cuisine unique. Devour Tours runs in-depth food tours led by expert local guides that will introduce you to the food culture and its history. If you’re a foodie like me who wants to learn more about the history and culture behind each dish, this tour is for you! Tours from 69 EUR.

Hostel prices – For a bed in a dorm with 6-8 beds, expect to pay 33-49 EUR per night during peak season and 17-35 EUR off-peak. Private rooms go for 80-120 EUR per night during peak season and 55-75 EUR off-peak. Free Wi-Fi and self-catering facilities are standard and many hostels also include free breakfast.

On Airbnb, you can find private rooms starting around 40-60 EUR per night and entire apartments for 80-125 EUR per night. Expect to pay double (or more) if you don’t book early.
Average cost of food – Italian cuisine is beloved around the world, though every region in Italy offers its own distinct flavor. Tomatoes, pasta, olives, and olive oil form the backbone of most meals, with meat and fish and various cheeses rounding out the menu. Gelato is a must also. You can find dishes from across the country in Rome, as well as tons of international fare; it’s the best foodie city in the country.
Most casual restaurant meals with wine cost around 15-20 EUR. In tourist hot spots, add another 10 EUR to that.
Quick eats like pizza, paninis, and sandwiches cost 4-8 EUR. Fast food (think McDonald’s) is around 8 EUR for a combo meal. Chinese takeout costs 5-10 EUR for a main dish.
If you want to splash out, a three-course meal at a mid-range restaurant starts at 30 EUR.
Beer costs around 4-5 EUR while a glass of wine costs 3-5 EUR. For non-alcoholic drinks, a latte/cappuccino is around 1.50 EUR and bottled water is less than 1 EUR.
Most restaurants will also add a 2.50-3 EUR coperta (cover charge) to your bill. No way to get around it.
If you plan on cooking your own food, expect to spend around 55-65 EUR per week on groceries. This gets you basic staples like rice, pasta, seasonal produce, and some meat.
On a backpacker’s budget in Rome, you’ll spend about 60 EUR per day. This assumes you’re staying in a hostel, cooking all of your meals, limiting your drinking, taking public transportation to get around, and doing mostly free activities like free walking tours and visiting free sights like the Parthenon and Spanish Steps. If you plan on drinking, add another 10 EUR to your daily budget.
On a mid-range budget of 160 EUR per day, you can stay in a private Airbnb, eat out for most meals, enjoy a few drinks, take the occasional taxi to get around, and do more paid activities like touring the Colosseum and visiting the Vatican.
On a “luxury” budget of 275 EUR or more per day, you can stay in a hotel, eat out for all your meals, drink as much as you want, take more taxis, and do whatever tours and activities you want. This is just the ground floor for luxury though. The sky is the limit!
You can use the chart below to get some idea of how much you need to budget daily, depending on your travel style. Keep in mind these are daily averages – some days you’ll spend more, some days you’ll spend less (you might spend less every day). We just want to give you a general idea of how to make your budget. Prices are in EUR.
It’s easy to blow a lot of money in Rome as it’s one of the most expensive cities in Europe. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to cut your costs. Here are some of the best ways to save money in Rome:
Rome has tons of fun, affordable, and social hostels. My recommended places are:
For more hostel suggestions, check out my list of the best hostels in Rome .
Public transportation – Rome has an extensive public transportation network consisting of buses, a subway (metro), trams, and trolleys.
The metro is the fastest way to get around the city. There are three lines and a single journey ticket that’s valid for 100 minutes is 1.50 EUR. You can pick up tickets from local tobacco shops, newsstands, and vending machines at the stations. You can also use contactless payment methods on the metro.
The bus can get you into the areas not covered by the metro system, but it’s a lot slower than the subway due to constant traffic jams. Tickets are 1.50 EUR.
You can purchase a one-day pass for unlimited travel for 7 EUR. A one-week pass costs 24 EUR.
If you’re going to be using the public transportation system a lot, the Roma Pass is your best bet as it includes free access to some museums, discounts on others, and unlimited public transportation. It’s 32 EUR for 48 hours and 53 EUR for 72 hours.
Taxis – Taxis are very expensive here so I don’t recommend taking them. The meter starts at 4 EUR and then goes up 1.20 EUR per kilometer. Avoid them at all costs!
Ridesharing – Uber is available in Rome and their prices are usually cheaper than taxis. That said, they’re still not super cheap so skip Uber too!
Bike rental – Bicycling around Rome may seem a little scary with the high volume of traffic (and the hills), but there are bike lanes around the city center that make it possible. Bike rentals start at 14-20 EUR per day.
Peak season is during the summer, from June through August. You’ll be constantly competing for views at Rome’s main tourist attractions, but the weather is also fantastic during these months (although sometimes it’s unbearably hot and humid). Temperatures during this season average around 27°C (81°F), but in August, temperatures soar above 32°C (89°F) per day.
If visiting in the summer, wake up early to beat the heat and the crowds.
Personally, I recommend visiting during the shoulder season, which is from April-May and late September-October. It’s slightly less chaotic than the summer months, and the temperature is pleasant, hovering around 18°C (64°F). That said, post-COVID, tourism has grown so much that even those times of the year can still be pretty crowded.
Winter is from November to March. This is the off-season in Rome but the city is never quiet. Although there are fewer travelers around, you can still expect a bustle of activity everywhere you go. Temperatures during this time range from 4-15°C (39-59°F).
Rome is a very safe place to backpack and travel — even if you’re traveling solo and even if you’re a solo female traveler. However, petty theft can be a problem here so keep your valuables secure and out of sight. Pickpockets are very active around Rome’s main attractions such as the Colosseum and St. Peter’s Square so stay vigilant.
It’s also not uncommon to get ripped off in this city. You should never buy tickets from unofficial ticket offices. If you are approached by someone selling skip-the-line tickets, ignore them. Also, always make sure your taxi driver is using the meter.
If you’re worried about getting scammed, you can read about common travel scams to avoid here.
Solo female travelers should generally feel safe here, however, the standard precautions apply (never leave your drink unattended at the bar, never walk home alone intoxicated, etc.).
If you experience an emergency, dial 113 for assistance.
Always trust your gut instinct. Make copies of your personal documents, including your passport and ID. Forward your itinerary along to loved ones so they’ll know where you are.
The most important piece of advice I can offer is to purchase good travel insurance. Travel insurance will protect you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It’s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I’ve had to use it many times in the past. You can use the widget below to find the policy right for you:
These are my favorite companies to use when I travel. They consistently have the best deals, offer world-class customer service and great value, and overall, are better than their competitors. They are the companies I use the most and are always the starting point in my search for travel deals.

Essential rome.
Travelers' pro tips or experiencing rome.
Restaurants near major tourist destinations often have a fixed-price, or tourist menu. It's better to avoid those restaurants and find a restaurant further away from the tourist attraction for higher quality meals.
Dress as you want but always take an extra piece of clothes to gain access to churches and museums.
You won't need to know a word of Italian to enjoy your trip. However, learning a few key words and phrases will be fun, helpful, and sometimes make you a little more appreciated.
Rome is an unforgettable city. From its beautiful buildings that have withstood time itself to the majestic, graceful, Mediterannean Pines. It's a living museum of history and art like nowhere else in the world.
Rome is one of the most beautiful,photogenic cities in the world. A mixture of modernity and tradition. The more you visit the more you love to go back.
It breathes history and art at every step you take and behind every corner there's a surprise.
Rome is served by the Leonardo da Vinci–(Fiumicino) International Airport.
Stazione Termini is the main railway station in Rome with regular train services to all major Italian cities, as well as daily international services to Munich, Geneva, and Vienna.
Italy is part of the Schengen Area with many other European countries. This means tourists from certain countries don’t require a visa for trips less than 90 days — as long as your passport is valid for at least six months after your planned departure date.
Find more information about the Schengen Visa and what countries are exempt here .
Late fall to early spring (October to April): Avoid Rome in July and August unless you can handle heat and humidity with temperatures reaching high 80s°F (26.6°C). Spring and fall offer perfect conditions with temperatures 60 - 70 °F ( 15.5 - 21°C), but the trade-off is peak crowds and prices.
Instead, visit during the off-season months of October through April, when you’ll trade shorter opening hours for fewer crowds. Winter is crisp, but nothing a light coat can’t handle.
Uber Jump offers electric bike hire through its bike-share app .
The Rome Metro, run by ATAC, operates 3 lines which run from about 5:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. daily. On Fridays and Saturdays service ends later, at about 1:30 a.m.
When the Metro is closed, a night bus service operates with lines that follow the same routes and stop at the same stations as the Metro.
For more information about the network and fares, see here .
Rome’s public bus service, run by ATAC, operates services from about 5.30 a.m. to midnight daily. The city’s night bus service runs from 12:30 a.m. to 5:30 a.m.
Licensed, metered cabs are white with a “TAXI” sign on their roofs. The symbol of Rome City Council is also clearly visible on the front doors.
You can hail a taxi from the street but it is recommended to go to one of the city’s many taxi stands or call to book.
For more information about fares, who to call and where to find a taxi stand, see here .
Uber is available in Rome on your smartphone.

Rome is full of churches and places of worship, so dress neatly and respectfully — cover bare shoulders and refrain from wearing short skirts or shorts when sightseeing.
Meals should be savoured and enjoyed, not eaten on the go while walking.
Italians take their coffee culture seriously. Milk-based coffee beverages are considered breakfast, so don’t order them after 11 a.m. — stick to espressos instead. Coffee is also meant to be enjoyed as a digestive after a meal.
Learning a few basic Italian phrases will go a long way as a sign of respect.

Rome, Italy, commonly referred to as the Eternal City, is a top travel destination that draws millions of visitors each year. An exuberant and modern world capital, Rome offers travelers fascinating reminders of its imperial past at every turn. It's also an international hub for contemporary fashion, design, art, and culture.
Encounter glorious monuments and ancient ruins dating as far back as at least the 3rd century B.C. Marvel at the stunning Romanesque- and Gothic-style architecture, medieval churches, picturesque squares, Baroque fountains, and world-class museums . Besides having an almost unlimited number of sights and attractions to see, Rome is famous for its traditional Roman food and wine and its vibrant nightlife , as well as pretty urban parks and peaceful nature reserves.
Things to know before you go:
Rome has an extensive public transportation system that consists of the Metro (subway), buses, trams, and three suburban railway lines (FS). Convenient and relatively inexpensive, the network connects to Rome's most popular tourist attractions but can be sometimes unreliable and overcrowded, especially during the summer months.
With so much to do and see in Rome, we recommend you start by hitting the major tourist attractions first—especially if this is your first visit. Regardless, do make sure to leave time in your schedule for people watching on an intimate piazza or strolling down Rome's many charming streets and cobbled alleyways.
Here are just some of Rome's top attractions:
For more information and details about Rome's sights and attractions see our 3 Days in Rome: What to See and Do or The 25 Top Things to Do in Rome.
Traditional Roman cuisine is based on inexpensive cuts of meat like offal and simple pasta recipes such as cacio e pepe (pecorino cheese and black pepper) and spaghetti carbonara (egg, cheese, and pork cheek). Other Roman favorites include deep fried artichokes ( carciofi alla giudia ), supplì (stuffed balls of rice with tomato sauce), and thin, crisp-crusted pizza.
Frascati is a white wine blend made in an area just south of the city. Artisanal and craft beer has become quite popular recently with pubs cropping up all over the city. In speakeasies and chic hipster bars, cocktails are flowing after hours.
With so many diverse and interesting neighborhoods in Rome, it's hard to choose where to stay. For easy access to the airport and public transportation, staying in a cozy B&B or friendly hostel near Termini Station makes a lot of sense. If you want to be where the action is, there are a myriad of lodging options in Trastevere , Monti, and the centralissimo (very central) area, though these quarters can be rather noisy at night. If romance is what you're after, consider staying at a historic luxury hotel along the famed Via Veneto or near the Spanish Steps, but expect to pay a premium for such stellar locations. If you're on a budget, self-catering Airbnbs and inexpensive hotels are available all over the city, offering a great solution.
There are two airports serving the Rome metropolitan area: Fiumicino (also known as Leonardo da Vinci) is the main international airport and Ciampino is a smaller, regional one. The best way to get into the city from the Fiumicino is by train to the main railway station closest to the historic center, Stazione Termini . You can also take airport buses to either Termini or Tiburtina station. We recommend you avoid driving in Rome if at all possible.
The Port of Civitavecchia is where cruise ships dock in Rome. See Civitavecchia to Rome Transportation for information about getting to the city or airport from here.
If you want to "do as the Romans do," then follow the bit of advice below.

Easily one of the world’s most important and famous cities, Rome is Italy’s only must-see destination, although you should definitely make time for Venice as well. The Eternal City is filled with many of Europe’s most famous landmarks, and it’s also usually crowded with other tourists.
Italy used to be considered one of the cheaper countries in Europe, but Rome itself is still one of Europe’s more expensive big cities. Hotel rooms tend to be pricey unless you are willing to stay in a neighborhood that isn’t close to anything useful. Food and drinks can be reasonable if you go for some of the more casual options and avoid touristy places with large signs in English out front.
Rome’s attractions are actually good value considering how amazing most of them are, so you won’t have to skip the Colosseum in order to afford dinner.
Accommodation costs in rome.
Rome is one of those must-visit cities and the Italians know it so things tend to be more expensive than you might expect. Hotels in particular are strangely pricey for this part of Europe, though some cheaper options are available in the slightly seedy area near the Termini train station. There are plenty of hostels so finding a bed is rarely a problem, especially if you book in advance. Check out our recommended Rome hotels and hostels for some great choices at very good rates.
Rome hotel seasons.
Hotels in Rome are at their most crowded and expensive from June through August, which is yet another reason to aim for the cooler and more pleasant spring or autumn if you can pull it off. Even though many Rome residents clear out of the city in July and August, the influx of tourists more than makes up for it, so book well in advance if you have a special place in mind.
The low season in Rome is from December through February, except for the winter holidays around New Year. Especially if you are coming in off season it tends to be a buyer’s market so finding a hotel once you arrive shouldn’t be a problem. But even if spring and autumn the cheaper and more popular places can become fully booked in advance so a reservation is a good idea. Hotels in Rome tend to be more expensive than one might think, so locking in a bargain is a good idea if you find one.
Recommended hotels, rome hostels prices, recommended hostels, rome attractions prices.
The attractions in Rome are quite reasonable and many of them are actually free, so this isn’t a city that will cost a fortune every time you want to go see something. The few famous ones that do charge are well worth it anyway. Some attractions, most notably the Vatican Museum tour, have very long queues, and going early in the day is recommended. If you are in a hurry then you’ll probably want to look into the Rome & Vatican Pass , which allows you to skip the long queues and comes with a bus tour as well.
The hop-on, hop-off double-decker bus tours of Rome might sound cheesy, but they are a great way to see almost all of the most fam0us sights in just a few hours. Rome is very photogenic and you can take dozens of great photos if you get a seat on top.
The free (tips-based) walking tours of Rome are also very worthwhile and a great complement the bus tours since you’ll be able to see many things in detail on foot in just another few hours.
Food and drinks in Rome can be tricky. The main hotel areas in the city are jammed with places well located for tourists, with English menus out front. These places tend to be noticeably more expensive than their more-local counterparts, so one of the tricks for saving money is to get away from the tourist districts and explore the local neighborhoods a bit.
Rome transport prices, getting to rome.
Visitors from places other than France or Italy will almost all land at Rome’s Fiumicino (FCO) Airport, which is sometimes known as Lenardo da Vinci Airport. This is Rome’s main airport and it handles almost all of the long-distance flights. Ciampino Airport (CIA) is Rome’s smaller option and it handles many of the low-cost flights from within Europe.
Rome is also easily accessible by train, although in most case it makes sense to fly into Milan or Venice and then head to Rome from there. You can reach northern Italy from Switzerland and France pretty easily, and the high-speed trains from Milan to Rome only take a few more hours from there.
Rome has a subway system that goes a few places that tourists will want to visit, but most of it is better suited for residents and commuters. You can and should walk between many of the key attractions. Local buses can be confusing for tourists, but taxis and ride-shares are reasonably priced compared to many other large European cities.
Temperature and rainfall, rome weather advice.
June through August is the most popular time to visit Rome, and unfortunately the days can be very hot and steamy during this period. The humidity is rarely out of control, but the city does have that closed-in feeling during the warmest days. Most people agree that spring and fall have the ideal weather for visiting, with April, May, and October being the most comfortable months.
Winters in Rome can be unpredictable with warm sunny weather one week and near-freezing temperatures the following week. It’s best to pack layers if you are coming anytime other than summer, and even in summer it’s not a bad idea. For information on weather and crowds see our when to visit Italy article .
Where to go before and after.
Faraway Worlds
If you’re planning on travelling to Rome, you’re probably wondering how much you need to budget for your trip. While your travel costs will depend on your travel style, generally speaking Rome is best for travellers with some spending money.
Accommodation costs are generally on the high side and food and drinks are relatively expensive. Many of Rome’s best attractions are very affordable or even free and, while some activities could set you back a fair amount, there’s plenty to do at lower price points too.
A reasonable budget for two for a weekend in Rome is around €770 . This assumes you’ll be spending two nights and three days in the city.
The above cost is based on staying in good, mid-range accommodation and going to a mix of restaurants and cafes for meals . It makes allowances for a couple of sightseeing activities, but doesn’t take into account expensive activities like adventure sports or private tours.
You can expect to spend between €90-€135 a night, per couple, on accommodation in Rome. This will get you a private room with your own bathroom in a 3-4-star hotel or apartment rental.
Hostels are, of course, cheaper, but a private room with a shared bathroom will still cost around €90 per night. A bed in a dorm room also averages around €25 per night, per person, although there are definitely cheaper options out there.
Like in many big cities, accommodation costs in Rome tend to fluctuate depending on where you stay. Any near major landmarks or in the Centro Historico tend to be a bit more expensive, while you'll find more affordable hotels and guesthouses further out. If you aren't sure where to stay, read our Rome neighbourhood guide .
Budget to spend around €340 for two for a weekend in Rome. This assumes you’re eating out and drinking some alcohol.
If you enjoy eating out, you can expect to pay around €60 for a nice dinner for two, including an alcoholic drink. A meal at a pub is likely to be around €45 for two, with cheaper meals available (especially for lunch) for around €18 each. You can buy a beer from a bar for around €5 and you can expect to pay around €1.5 for a cappuccino from a local café.
Getting around Rome is easiest with a bus. Transport costs fluctuate depending how much you travel, but budgeting around €50 for two is a good starting point. This should allow you to take a couple of longer bus trips. If you’re planning on doing any tours or using hop-on hop-off buses, you’ll need to up your budget a bit.
If you're staying in the Centro Historico and just want to get to the major sites, you can also use the metro. You can use the same tickets on the bus and the metro. The historical centre is also very walkable, so you may choose to just walk if you are planning on staying in the city centre.
If you're visiting for a couple of days and planning on exploring the city using public transport, consider buying a Roma Pass which also includes a couple of free entries to major attractions. If you're planning to take a taxi to or from the airport, budget €48 each way.
A lot of the best things to do in Rome are free. However, there definitely are some attractions that cost money – entry fees to a museum or an art gallery are usually around €20 - €40 per person. If you want to do organised day trips or join smaller tour groups to learn more about some of the sites, budget around €120 per activity per person.
There's a lot to do in Rome itself and if you're only staying for a few days, you'll find plenty to do to keep you busy. Saying that, some people do take day trips to Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast or Tuscany while they're in Rome. If you don't have your trip planned out, read our three-day Rome itinerary for ideas.
Rome is a beautiful destination to visit and although it’s not cheap, it’s definitely possible to travel there for less. Cooking your own meals, carefully selecting accommodation or limiting meals out will definitely help you to reduce your travel costs. And, if you're wanting to treat yourself, there are many luxury options available.

Like any other city, the price of hotels in Rome can vary quite a bit. Generally speaking, you should be able to find a decent room in the $120 per night range. There are quite a few hotels around Termini station that are clean and affordable.
If you’re willing to spend a little more ($150 – $200 per night), you should able to get a hotel or apartment in the historic center which I think is the ideal location for first-timers as it gives you easy access to all the major attractions. Aventine Hill and Trastevere are nice areas, but I think they’re a bit too far out so choose one of the other locations.
Need some hotel recommendations? Here are some to help you get started.
Mid-range hotels
Luxury hotels
Private apartment rentals are also pretty popular in Rome. You should look into them if you want a kitchen or a little more space. Seeing how you’re only going to be in Rome for a few days, getting a hotel will likely be easier.
If you have the right credit card, you can save a fair amount of money on hotels. Americans should strongly consider the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express Card since you can earn up to 95,000 Marriott Bonvoy points and $300 back at U.S. restaurants as a welcome bonus . Canadians should consider the Marriott Bonvoy American Express , which gives you up to 75,000 Marriott Bonvoy points. That’s enough points for a few free nights at some hotels, which could easily have a value of over $500.
Rome has a decent network of public transportation that includes buses, trains and trams, but don’t expect it to be on the same level as cities such as Amsterdam , Barcelona or Tokyo . That said, you’ll have no problem getting around.
Here’s the funny thing, depending on where you stay, you may not need to take public transportation. The historic centre is about a 30-minutes or less walk from every major attraction. If you’re staying near Termini, you might only take transit to the Vatican.
A single ride will cost you €1.50 ($1.60) or you can get a 24-hour pass for €7.00 ($7.60). Tickets can be purchased tobacconists (newsstands), bars, or vending machines at Metro stations and even at major bus stops
To get into the city from the airport, you can take the Leonardo Express train which costs €8 ($8.65) each way. You probably won’t spend more than $30 on local transportation in Rome, but that assumes you’re not taking any taxis.
The saying is that Rome is one giant open free museum and it’s true. But, if you want to go into any sites, you’ll need to pay. The good news is that most of the admission prices are pretty reasonable. Here are some of the most popular attractions you’ll want to check out.
Most people will pay to see 3-4 attractions when in Rome so budget $100. The ones that can’t be missed are The Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel tour, The Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill.
The reason you want to book a tour for the Vatican Museums is that it allows you to bypass the line. Yes, you’ll pay about double the base admission, but you could end up saving 1-2 hours of waiting in a line and you get an official guide. It’s totally worth it.
For the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, buy a combined ticket online in advance. You’ll want to do this just to skip the lines. The other attractions that are worth paying for, especially if you’re a fan of art are Borghese Gallery and Capitoline Museums.
If you prefer just to do free things, you won’t be disappointed. You can see one of the most overhyped attractions in the world in the Spanish Steps and one of the most crowded attractions at the Trevi Fountain. The Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Largo di Torre Argentina, Piazza Venezia, Piazza del Popolo and Piazza di Siena.
I personally love Italian food so visiting Rome is always a joy for the taste buds. What I’ve learned over the years is that the quality of food can vary quite a bit. I’ve been to restaurants that are packed but once I ate the food, I realize it’s catering to tourists and not very good. My most memorable meal was at a small restaurant in Trastevere just off the main street. It was like an Italian grandmother feeding me. Always read reviews online before you go into a restaurant and keep in mind that service is sometimes already added to the bill
I don’t find food to be that expensive, but it depends on how much you like to eat. Here’s what I estimate you should spend every day on meals.
That works out to $32 a day, but let’s round up to $35 as you’ll likely have a gelato every day too.
Many hotels offer free breakfast, but even if you need to pay for food, a pastry and coffee shouldn’t cost you more than $5. Lunch can be inexpensive if you get takeaway. The most famous things to get in Rome for lunch are pizza slices and paninis which shouldn’t cost you more than $7.
I like to spend a bit more on dinner and budget $20. However, if you want to get multiple courses and drinks, you’ll want to budget a little more.
Like any other major city, Rome has plenty of shopping opportunities, but I don’t find there to be anything special. Sure, you might spend money on some brands you don’t have at home, but that’s just regular shopping.
Tourist shops are on every block, so if you want a magnet or an I heart Roma shirt, you won’t have any issue finding them. I estimate you should budget another $40 for random spending and that could all go towards snacks or additional attractions.
So how much does it cost to go to Rome? I estimate US $1,390 for 4 nights which includes your flights. You may not need that many days in the city if you’re doing a longer Italian trip, but that’s how much you should budget.

Like many other popular Western European cities, many people consider Rome to be a tourist destination high on their bucket list. Nicknamed the Eternal City (for the empire believed to have no end), Rome blew me away with its deeply rooted history, iconic landmarks, architecture, delicious food, and cheap wine. Even though Rome is considered an expensive travel destination, if you’re on a budget, I have some good news for you. You can absolutely have a blast touring Rome no matter your budget. So as you plan your trip and estimate your travel costs, use this Rome budget breakdown as a guide. Also, don’t forget to jot down some other important Rome travel costs like groceries and metered parking.
Now before we jump into how much to budget for Rome, here are some important financial things you should know before you go.

You can use all major credit cards in Italy including Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. However, I recommend carrying cash as well. Smaller establishments may not accept plastic.
If your bank or credit card company requires a travel notification, set your travel dates ahead of time to avoid any inconveniences.
When booking my round-trip flight to Rome, I redeemed Delta Air Lines SkyMiles which significantly reduced my out-of-pocket travel expenses.
From the U.S., round-trip economy flights to Europe usually cost 60,000 SkyMiles. But since I booked my flights during a Delta SkyMiles Flash Sale , I saved 5,000 SkyMiles on my award ticket.
I booked my roundtrip award flight to Rome for 55,000 SkyMiles and paid $72.86 USD for mandatory taxes, fees, and charges. This included one free checked bag and priority boarding.
Coupling my SkyMiles with a flash sale not only saved me money (flights to Rome in the summer cost over $700 USD) but also a significant amount of miles! If you’re not in a rush to redeem your Delta SkyMiles, wait for Delta’s monthly flash sales for better redemption value.
Total hostel cost: 99,05 € or $111.58 usd, total generator hostel rome cost: $32, 85 € or $38.55 usd .

My room had access to a small patio and a hammock. This was perfect for reading and getting work done.
Generator Hostel Rome also offers a buffet breakfast and daily happy hour. Weekly events include Pizza Social Night, Funk Fridays, Soundclash Saturday and Sunday Rehab.

From 6:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m., Yellow Hostel offers guests a complimentary plate of pasta which is great for saving money on your Rome budget.
The hostel also has all sorts of tours and activities like bike tours, cooking classes, and vintage photo classes.

I booked five nights in a 2-bedroom and 2-bathroom Airbnb apartment near Vatican City with my best friend. We had the entire apartment to ourselves. It included a small kitchen, living room, balcony, and a stylish foyer.
We also paid 17,50 € (8,75 € per person) which covered the mandatory lodging city tax for five nights which was approximately $20.53 USD ($10.26 USD per person).
The Rome hotel tax is a mandatory tax for tourist. The hotel tax is charged per person, per night for a maximum of ten nights. It is not included in your bill or lodging rates so you’ll have to pay this separately when you arrive.
The tax ranges from 3,00 € to 7,00 € a night and it is based on the star rating of the accommodation.
Many other cities in Italy charge a similar hotel tax.

Rome Activity Details
So how much did a trip to Rome cost me? Well, I spent $ 781.70 USD during my week in Rome. The majority of my Rome budget savings came from redeeming a free flight through Delta Air Lines’ frequent flyer program. Nevertheless, while in Rome, I kept costs low by enjoying most of the free activities that the city has to offer and by sticking to a budget of ~40,00 € a day for meals, drinks, and snacks. If you’re on a tighter budget, you can certainly spend less by skipping out on gelato and a glass of wine. Since eating out also adds up, eat out less and do more grocery shopping.
Lastly, I recommend walking as much as you can. Rome is the perfect city to roam endlessly and get lost. There are Roman ruins and beautiful parks and gardens everywhere. So even if you (accidentally) forget your purse or wallet at home, you can still have an enchanting time exploring the city.

I see you talked about languages at the beginning, but did this include you being able to talk their language or did you use only english while you were there?..how can a person tell if its a reputable hostel or not…what would a person look for..or would it be better or safer to just went an Airbnb apartment?
I would advise reading hostel reviews on sites like TripAdvisor, Booking.com or Yelp and also look at the photos taken by other travelers.
great info. thanks
Rome is my favourite city. Maybe I go there a third time. And I agree with you, walking is the best way to explore Rome.
Italy is the one country in Europe I would love to visit. The information in your post will definitely be very useful in budgeting for my trip there!
I’m so glad to hear! Have a fantastic time in Rome!

Of the 2 Rome airports, CIA is closer to the city center and more readily accessible if you are traveling by car or want to get a taxi. Alternatively, although FCO is a bit further, it is better connected via public transportation.
CIA is so small it makes security super easy to get through, plus there are some great options for last-minute shipping and souvenirs to pick up, Finally, the airport has lots of great connections to other European airports so if your journey doesn’t end in Rome, it might be a good option to consider.
CIA is located to the south of Rome making it an ideal arrival airport if you want to visit the catacombs, the Villa Dei Quintili, the Rome Planetarium, or the Palazzo Della Civiltà Italiana. Alternatively, FCO is located to the west near the coast, which makes it great for destinations other than Rome in addition to sights like the Colosseum or the Pantheon that are well-connected via public transport.
FCO has business hotels accessible via free shuttles, including Best Western Hotel Rome Airport, Hotel Riviera Fiumicino, B&B Luana Inn Airport, and Hotel La Conchiglia. In addition, HelloSky has rooms that can be booked in 3- or 6-hour slots while the Hilton can be accessed via a covered walkway. CIA does not have any on-site airports and will be better of heading to the town center or checking out one of the airport lounges.
You can take a taxi from Fiumicino Airport to outside of the walls of the Vatican City. There is also a bus line that can take you to Vatican City that takes about 45 minutes, depending on the time of day and traffic conditions.
There is a train station inside Fiumicino Airport itself so that is the closest airport. However, Ciampino Airport is only five minutes away by bus from the train station, so either option is a good choice for onward rail travel.
You’ll find many regular and duty-free shops at Fiumicino Airport including choices for perfume, eyewear, clothing, and bookstores. As a smaller airport, Ciampino Airport has fewer options for shopping, however, you’ll enjoy regular and duty-free shopping for fashion, gifts, and jewelry.
For families traveling with children, Fiumicino Airport offers two different play areas for children. You will also find several baby changing areas that have cots and changing mats across different levels of this airport.
It’s easy to take the train into Rome to enjoy some of the sites. You can start with a visit to the Colosseum or another option is a visit to the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain. If you have an evening in Rome, the Hilton Rome Airport Hotel is only a 5-minute walk away.

Top 5 airlines flying to rome.
On time departure, smooth trip, flight attendant told through passengers the gate we would arrive at and the gate our outbound flight was departing from. Early arrival
Checking in at the airport the agent only booked the first keg of my trip and had my checked luggage going to the airport with a layover! Never was issued a boarding pass for the second leg or received sticker fir my checked bag. All was well in the end! Delta agents helped to resolve the situation!!!
Delayed due to an ill passenger after loading. Not preventable on Delta's part. Was in first class. The seats are becoming worn and detaching from their velcro attachments. Only got snacks on flight. The attendant was not the friendliest.
I would fly again the whole experience was great. The only feed back I can give that they don't do that American Airlines does is the crew there is more humorous with boarding and thank their passengers. It makes it more fun to fly with them. I would however fly Delta again.
Big plane, long flight, absolutely no leg room and basically non existent air! I am 5”4’ and always travel Main Cabin, I was miserable on this plane and could barely move when we arrived in Cabo due to the cramped leg area!
From Atlanta to Cabo I would have hoped on a plane that size I would have been able to breathe and wiggle my feet a little! The leg room in that plane is non existent and I am only 5”4’. And the air vent either wasn’t working very well or just could not blow air from the ceiling to the seat area as I was suffocating through the entire flight! And please don’t say I would have been more comfortable in first class because I cannot afford those rates and have always travelled Main Cabin without issues !
The pilots were good. Disappointing when planes don't have electrical ports
I liked the piloting of the aircraft. Very disappointed about lack of electrical ports. Also, although a short flight. there was enough time to hand out snacks to comfort + seats as was done for first class.
I had a wonderful experience flying with delta. The gentleman taking care of us on our flight was so nice, accommodating, and attentive. He always was smiling and giving pins to the kids which made me smile. The flight was quick too and without turbulence. Thank you for the great flying experience.
Delta is one of the best airlines I have flown
I paid $380 for my one-way ticket from California to Minnesota. The fair did not include online check-in. I received instructions from their app to check in at a kiosk. At the kiosk, the boarding pass would not print until an actual person came to verify that I had a personal item and not a carry-on item, On the plane, the person next to me was drunk and allowed to continue to order alcohol. United is garbage I’d rather fly spirit.
The plane was dirty and the in seat air wasn't blowing as planes usually do.
Generally good but there wasn’t any staff available when my luggage didn’t appear at baggage claim in Fresno. It took about half an hour to locate a staff member to open up the locked room where it was being kept.
Do not like the feeling of being in the basic economy. Everyone should feel good no matter what.
All flights were on time and boarding was issue free
Terrible! The plane was old and you are required to connect your own device to their Wi-Fi rather than have entertainment options in the back of the seat in front of you. The Wi-Fi went out during the flight and there was only one plug for the devices every two seats. Three out of five surrounding my family did not work. The seats and spaces under them were so small I could not fit my backpack, which I’ve always brought on flights and fit before no problem. The crew were unpleasant and patronizing.
Great! The plane was decently sized and comfortable. The staff was nice and there was great in flight entertainment
Food was terrible Not many options Stewards dont care Delay
Water service would be great. The way they board is terrible. Slow passengers first😂😂 They need to smart up a bit
Our original business class flight was cancelled so we not only downgraded but we were also spread out across the plane not sitting together in separate middle seats. My poor kids were scared and couldn’t see me on the flight and the crew wasn’t sensitive to the situation and what the airlines did to us. Very dissatisfied with United airlines.
All four American Airlines flights I took in last seven days were delayed. Caused me loads of problems, missed meetings, loss of time and money.
American cancelled our flight home. Zero option for hotel, alternative transportation and took 3 hours to find our bags so we could take a 3 hour UBER ride home on our dime. Never flying AA again.
They gave my seat away although it was a connecting flight with them and the flight was a bit delayed.
Flight was cancelled had to move to another gate late again no internet paid for the month and never can use it waste of money
Not being able to purchase my check in baggage online was a negative.
LATE LATE LATE!!! Plagued by late AA flights on this trip. Such a drag. This one was by far the worst.
WiFi connected but only let you go to the AA website, not even text messaging worked.
Too bad that first class seats do not recline significantly causing discomfort
I think the seats on some of their planes are uncomfortable. You can be ok on a short flight of two hours but no more than that. The delays, and also the refreshments on the plane were not enough.
Flight delayed over an over all day until it cancelled at 1:30am. Would not repeatedly delay that late. Offer hotel rooms and rebook early. Very difficult for families with small children
The seats were tiny, being of a fairly petite build, I don’t usually expect to feel crammed and cramped in a seat, but I definitely was on this flight. I couldn’t even bend over to get anything out from under the seat in front and getting up to go to the bathroom at night with the seat backs reclined was nearly impossible. I had to do gymnastics to get over and out. For an airline that does long flights overnight, it’s kind of ridiculous.
Not connecting flights. Missed my flight from Dublin to Liverpool because I arrived at Dublin one hour too late. For this mistake, they offered me a flight from Dublin to Manchester. Thats great and all, but I waste time and money to commute to Liverpool. Be sure to check the time of your connecting flights, because they sure don’t when they sell it to you
Excellent! Great flight attendants, good food (in business class, at least), very comfortable. Touchscreen and remote wasn’t great.
In economy and food was ok, but with limited leg space (and I was in a 2 seat configuration) it was difficult to eat with a tiny seat tray. I spilt wine on my trousers. First time on British Air (I usually fly Turkish Air) and in a 777. Heathrow was pleasant but changing terminals awkward.
Starting with the flight Cairo to London the plain was so poor no entertainment at all uncomfortable seats although it’s 5 hours long,then an American airline plain took me from London to Miami it was a bad experience the crew most of flight time not available and they asked us to help our selves for any snacks if we need. From Miami to London actually was perfect flight with a huge plain and perfect crew but from London to Cairo was horrible plain with stiff fixed seats not movable no entertainment or wi fi very poor Menu which is unacceptable for a business class
Self check in Kiosk did not recognize that I had prepaid for my luggage. This caused a 40 minute delay even though I had my British Airways email receipt for the prepaid luggage.
I've done hundreds of flights in my life, and this flight was one of the best I've ever taken, From beginning to end, everything went smoothly, professionally, and with a smile and friendly attitude from all employees I interacted with. The food was delicious (and free), as were the drinks. There was just a genial and effective way in the way that British Airways organized the flight -that reminded of days in the 70's, 80's, and 90's, when flying was a fun, and exciting adventure. I enjoyed and had confidence in the abilities of the flight crew, I'll be flying British Airways several more times this summer. Thank you so much for the great experience! Cheryl Olso
My baggage did not arrived with me. Took 3 days to get it after so may calls and follow up
Terrible! I missed my flight to my final destination and British airlines and American Airlines keep pointing fingers on each other’s. Nobody wants to take responsibility
Terrible. Flight was 3 hours delayed and I missed my other flight to my final destination
The plane seemed very dated. The entertainment was very limited. There was a school group on our flight and the crew seemed bothered by them. They were not overly friendly or welcoming.
Ok, but no entertainment. Left late, but made up most of the time.
May be it is not an ITA issue, but the bags took long time to go out.
Good. But there food was poor quality and 95% of movies didn't have English subtitles
I thought they had rebranded themselves in every aspect but it was quite the opposite. The food was terrible the service was sub-par. Overall it was not a good experience.
Service from staff was poor, food choices were limited. Air plane was not clean or hygienic and seemed like not cleaned for days. Seats were uncomfortable.
service from stAff was barely there , food choices were limited. AirPlane was not clean and seemed like it was not cleaned for days.. Seats were very uncomfortable.
I paid for premium seats and the last minute they changed the aircraft for a bigger one, they bumped me to another seat which was NOT at all comfortable for an 11 hour flight, will fight for a refund!!
The landing was catastrophic. I was very scared. I thought it were my last lminues. Pilotes should be more experienced
ALL services were good. An announcement should’ve been made at the end of the flight that filling out a customs form would not be necessary anymore for USA travelers entering Philadelphia.

Rome, paris and barcelona: your way, rome, florence, venice and milan: your way, more about rome.
Only in Rome can you sip cappuccino at a café in front of the Pantheon, buy grapes at a centuries-old market and have an audience with the pope — all in one morning. For a mix of spectacular art, grand history and exuberant street life, no other city comes close. It's no surprise that the food is rich and satisfying. Roman cooking is simple, rustic cuisine, perfected over centuries. Dishes rarely have more than a few ingredients, and meat and fish are most often roasted, baked, or grilled. And did we mention the nightlife? There's a bar for every taste in Rome, from wine bars catering to an eclectic crowd faithfully observing the Roman ritual of the evening aperitif to trendy dance clubs that don't get started until well after midnight.

The main tourist season in Rome starts shortly before Easter (when the greatest number of visitors flock to the city) and runs through October. It's neither too hot nor too cold, there's usually plenty of sun, and the famous Roman sunsets are at their best. In July and August, come if you like, but learn to do as the Romans do — get up and out early, seek shady refuge from early-afternoon heat, take a nap if you can, resume activities in the late afternoon, and stay up late to enjoy the nighttime breeze. During August many shops and restaurants close, and on the August 15 holiday Rome is a ghost town. During the winter months, especially January through March, you have a better chance of getting into the major tourist attractions without having to wait in line.
Colosseum : This ancient stadium is an iconic landmark of Imperial Rome in the middle of the city. The largest amphitheater ever constructed and still standing today. It was used for public spectacles but fell out of use in Medieval times and has since been partially restored.
Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel : An immense collection of artworks that eventually lead into the Sistine Chapel. The chapel itself is not overly large and is famous for its ceiling painted by Michelangelo. Don’t forget to take a look into St. Peter’s Basilica which is right next door.
Crypts and Roman Catacombs : These are underground burial chambers of the first Christians created 2,000 years ago, surrounding the city. The tunnels are so extensive that a tour is recommended so you do not become lost.
Food : Cooking classes abound in this city, for you to try your favorite Italian foods such as pasta making, pizza and gelato. However, eating in the sidewalk cafes is just as pleasing if you prefer to leave the cooking to the professionals.
Villa Borghese Gallery and Gardens : This museum started life as a country villa house. The many sculptures by Bernini are a highlight. The gardens surrounding the building create the third largest public park in Rome.

I’ll cover everything from the best ways to get to Florence from Rome to what to see and do in Florence. I’ll also give you some tips on making the most of your day trip and avoiding crowds.
So whether you’re a first-time visitor to Italy or a seasoned traveler, read on for all the info you need to plan your perfect day trip from Rome to Florence!
There are many reasons to visit Rome , but once you have explored for a few days, it’s not a bad idea to head out beyond the Eternal City. Let’s jump into the best ways to get from Rome to Florence for a day trip.
Several train companies offer direct services between the two cities, and the journey takes about 1 hour and a half.
I recommend you buy tickets online to save time and hassle in the morning, as seats can fill up during peak seasons. You can also grab your tickets at the train station if you forget.
Cost: €15 – €30 each way for an express train
Duration: 1 hr 30mins one way
Departure: Roma Termini and Roma Tiburtina.
Arrival: Santa Maria Novella Station.
Several train companies offer direct express services between the two cities, including Trenitalia and Italo. You can take a local train to save a few euros but it will extend your trip to 3-4 hours.
The most popular train stations for departures to Florence that are close to most Rome hotels are Roma Termini and Roma Tiburtina . And good news, in Florence, you will arrive at Santa Maria Novella Station which is in the heart of the city. Most places are easily accessible by walking.
I find tours a great way to have a break from the stress of travel logistics. You can simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey. Many tours include free pick-up and drop-off to your accommodation in Rome and take about 12 hours round trip.
You will have the extra benefit of learning about the destination from your knowledgeable tour guide. Prices usually start around $115 USD per person and go up from there.
So if you want to skip the fuss, and see the top sights of Florence and possibly a second destination, taking a guided tour is for you!
Travel through the picturesque Tuscan countryside in a comfortable minivan, and enjoy the personalized attention of a small-group tour. This is a great way to see some of Italy’s most iconic landmarks in one day. Plus if you are a solo traveler like I often am, this is a great way to meet others!
On a tour of Florence, you’ll see artistic masterpieces like Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia Gallery and walk beneath Brunelleschi’s famous dome.
If you book a tour that adds on Pisa, you’ll marvel at the stately marble treasures of Piazza dei Miracoli, including the iconic Leaning Tower.
Self-driving from Rome to Florence is a great way to see the Italian countryside and have the freedom to explore at your own pace. The drive takes about 3 hours and 15 minutes via the A1 highway, and the scenery is stunning. Expect to pay costs for the rental car, gasoline, and parking.
There are a few things to keep in mind if you’re planning on self-driving from Rome to Florence.
First, you’ll need to make sure that you have a valid driver’s license and that your travel insurance covers your rental car.
Second, you’ll need to be familiar with the Italian road rules.
And third, you’ll need to be prepared for traffic, especially during the peak season.
When it comes to parking in Florence, it is pretty limited. There are a few street parking spots available in the city center, but they are metered and have time limits. Some park-and-ride lots are located outside the city center and are great for avoiding the hassle of paying and having to move your car.
Another good option is a parking garage in the city center, but they fill up quickly. If you’re planning on parking in a garage, be sure to book your spot in advance.
IMPORTANT: Be aware of the ZTL (Zona a Traffico Limitato). This is a restricted traffic zone in the city center that is only accessible to residents and authorized vehicles. Those who enter the ZTL without a permit, aka with your rental car, will be fined.
If you’re up for a challenge, self-driving from Rome to Florence is a great way to see the best of Italy.
Moving onto, in my opinion, the worst ways to get from Rome to Florence for a day trip.
Flying from Rome to Florence for a day trip is possible, but it is NOT recommended.
The flight time is only about 1 hour from Rome’s Leonardo da Vinci International Airport to Florence’s Amerigo Vespucci Airport, but you will need to factor in the time it takes to get to and from the airports, as well as the security checks. This means that you will only have about 4-5 hours in Florence, which is not enough time to see the city properly.
I will always opt for a train over a plane, and here’s why:
If you are determined to fly from Rome to Florence for a day trip, I recommend you book your flights early. This will help you to get the best prices and the most convenient flight times.
But again I wouldn’t recommend flying for a day trip.
Catching a taxi from Rome to Florence is possible, but it is not the most recommended way to travel between the two cities.
The taxi fare will be quite pricey (about $400-500 each way), and the journey will take about 2 hours.
Catching a taxi can be convenient, but it is not the most flexible option. You will be limited to the taxi driver’s schedule.
If you’re on a tight budget for your European adventure, you can take a bus to Florence. The bus journey takes a little longer (about three to four hours), but it’s cheaper than the train, albeit not as comfortable. Tickets cost as little as 5 euros.
Buses depart every hour from Rome (Roma, Autostazione Tiburtina) heading to Florence, Villa Costanza Tram T1. If you choose this, you will want to catch a very early bus to make the most of your day. And remember, buses can be unreliable and are dependent on traffic conditions.
Personally, I would recommend you stick with the train, it is worth the extra few euros for a quicker, more comfortable journey that leaves you ample time to explore Florence.
To help you plan an efficient day trip from Rome to Florence here is my recommended itinerary!
Rise and shine it’s time to head to Florence!
Catch an early morning train from Rome to Florence, aiming to arrive in Florence by mid-morning. Trains depart from Rome’s Termini station usually starting at 5 am or 6 am and arrive at Florence’s Santa Maria Novella station.
Or wait for your tour guide to swing by and pick you up if you choose that route!
Start your day in Florence by heading to the signature Florence Cathedral, also known as the Duomo. Marvel at its stunning architecture and consider climbing to the top of the dome for panoramic views of the city.
Walk to Piazza della Signoria , a historic square known for its impressive sculptures and beautiful architecture. Take some time to admire the iconic Palazzo Vecchio and the outdoor sculpture gallery.
Next, visit the Uffizi Gallery, one of the world’s most renowned art museums. Explore its extensive collection of Renaissance masterpieces, including works by Botticelli, Michelangelo, and Leonardo da Vinci. I suggest booking tickets in advance to skip the line .
Take a short stroll to the Ponte Vecchio, a famous bridge spanning the Arno River. Enjoy the picturesque views and explore the jewelry shops that line the bridge. The Arno River is a wonderful place to take gorgeous photos of the city!
Take a break for lunch and enjoy some traditional Tuscan cuisine. Look for local trattorias or restaurants offering dishes like bistecca alla Fiorentina (Florentine steak) or handmade pasta.
If you have time and are interested in seeing Michelangelo’s David , consider visiting the Accademia Gallery . The museum houses this iconic sculpture along with other works of art.
Note that this visit may require additional time, so factor that into your itinerary!
Take some time to wander through the streets of Florence’s historic center, soaking in the charming atmosphere and admiring the beautiful architecture. Explore the narrow alleys and discover hidden gems along the way.
Treat yourself to some authentic Italian gelato from one of the gelaterias in Florence. Indulge in the delicious flavors as you continue exploring the city.
If you’re interested in retail therapy, browse the local boutiques for leather goods and other unique souvenirs.
That’s a wrap!
If you’re catching the train, head back to the Santa Maria Novella station and catch an evening train back to Rome. Ensure you have enough time to reach the station from your last destination in Florence.
Remember to adjust this itinerary based on your specific interests, time constraints, and the operating hours of the attractions you wish to visit.
While it’s a jam-packed day, it allows you to experience some of Florence’s highlights and immerse yourself in its rich cultural heritage.
Here are some essential tips to make the most of your Rome to Florence day trip.
Researching ahead of time is key to making the most of your limited time in Florence. Identify the attractions and landmarks you want to visit, strategically plan your itinerary, and consider pre-booking tickets for popular museums and galleries to skip the queues.
Start your day trip from Rome to Florence bright and early to maximize your day. If you are catching a train, first trains usually depart around 5:00 or 6:00 a.m., allowing you to arrive in Florence by mid-morning.
If you opt for a guided tour you can expect to start at around 7:00 a.m.
Florence is a city best explored on foot. Wear comfortable shoes as you’ll be walking all day. I suggest you wear your favorite pair of white sneakers or your flat leather boots . Save your Birkenstocks and strappy wedges for another day.
Make a priority list of the must-see attractions in Florence, such as the Florence Cathedral (Duomo), Ponte Vecchio, and Piazza della Signoria . Focus on ticking off these spots but allow yourself time and flexibility to get lost in exploring hidden gems.
Consider joining a guided tour or renting an audio guide to learn more about the city’s history and art. By doing so you gain even more insight into the captivating city of Florence.
If you have specific restaurants in mind, make lunch reservations in advance to avoid wasting time waiting in line. Florence offers a variety of delicious Tuscan cuisine, so take the opportunity to savor local dishes and rest your feet.
Watch the time as you get lost in cobblestone streets and wander through museums. Allocate enough time to visit the major attractions and wander through the charming alleyways. Trust me, it’s easy to lose track of time.
Florence is renowned for its leather goods, handmade paper, and artisanal products. Leave some time for shopping and pick up unique souvenirs to remember your trip.
If you opt for the train, check the train schedule for your return journey to Rome and ensure you have ample time to reach the train station from your last destination in Florence.
I recommend you book a train ticket with a flexible return time in case you want to stay a bit longer.
If you opt for a tour or self-driving this is less relevant to you, just ensure you leave enough time to safely return home.
Finally, remember to savor the experience and immerse yourself in the beauty and culture of Florence. Take in this remarkable city’s art, architecture, and ambiance, making lasting memories before returning to Rome.
And remember to take plenty of photos!
To finish up, let’s cover a couple of additional questions you may have on your day trip from Rome to Florence.
Absolutely. A day trip to Florence from Rome is well worth doing. Despite the limited time, you can still experience the beauty and cultural richness of the city.
Feast your eyes on Florence’s Renaissance art showcased in museums like the Uffizi Gallery, marvel at the iconic Florence Cathedral with its breathtaking dome, and explore the historic center that allows you to soak in the city’s charm.
Plus of course, you have to indulge in Tuscan cuisine to experience the local flavors and traditional delicacies.
While more time would be ideal to fully explore Florence, a day trip provides a taste of its highlights and leaves you with lasting memories of this captivating city.
Trust me, you’ll be left wanting to explore more!
When traveling from Rome to Florence, taking the train is far superior to flying.
Not only does it offer a comfortable and enjoyable journey through picturesque Italian landscapes, but it also provides the convenience of city-center to city-center travel.
With high-speed trains like the Frecciarossa and Italo, the travel time is only around 1.5-2 hours, which is faster than flying once you factor in airport transfers and security procedures.
Plus taking a train eliminates the hassle of airport congestion, risks of delays, and long check-in lines.
You have the freedom to move around, relax, and appreciate the scenic beauty along the way. This is a big plus in my eyes!
If you want a stress-free and pleasant experience, the train is undoubtedly the better choice for your Rome to Florence journey.
No matter how you spend your day, a day trip from Rome to Florence is sure to be an unforgettable experience.
