In your Rome vacation you can get to know the “la dolce vita” and walk in the footsteps of the once most powerful empire in Europe.\nWhere the Roman Empire once developed, historical ruins now stand. Rome is the perfect blend of modern city life and historical sights with unique architecture. Therefore, we would like to introduce you to the capital of Italy for your vacation in more detail.\nShow Ticket\ntable of content\nThe top things to see in Rome\nThe best tours in Rome\nOur Rome Tips\nFood in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more\nShopping in Rome\nCheap to Rome with our money saving tips\nHotels and Airbnb in Rome\nMore about Rome\nThe top things to see in Rome\nAs I said, Rome is a very historic city. Therefore, there are of course a few sights that you must not miss on your Rome vacation. To make your trip easier, we’ve picked out the top 5 things to see in Rome.\nColosseum:\nThe Colosseum is known worldwide and is the landmark of Rome. It has even been included in the list of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World because it is the largest amphitheater in the world. A visit to the Colosseum is an absolute must during your vacation in Rome! Since the waiting times on site can be very long with over 5 million visitors a year, we recommend you buy your ticket for the Colosseum online in advance – it’s a bit more expensive than standing in line, but it will save you valuable time. It’s best to buy a\ncombined ticket for the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill\nwith one tour, so you can see all the top Rome sights and get interesting information!\nRoman Forum:\nThe Roman Forum dates back to the 6th century BC and was a central place in the history of Rome. In the past, emperors were crowned here, markets were held and much more. The Roman Forum, along with the Colosseum and Palatine Hill, should definitely be on your things to do list, which is why the Forum only has combo tickets with the other two sights. You can buy the combined ticket on site for only 12 euros, but even here you have to expect long waiting times. Therefore, we prefer to buy a slightly more expensive online\nticket for the Roman Forum with priority admission\n.\nPantheon:\nThe Pantheon is not only one of the free Rome sights, but also one of the oldest surviving buildings from antiquity. It was built in the 2nd century AD as a house for all the gods and then used as a church.\nSt\n. Peter’s Basilica:\nSt. Peter’s Basilica is one of the largest and most important church buildings in the world. Located in the middle of the Vatican City, the church convinces not only from the outside, but also from the inside. Be sure to check out the basilica! It is also worth climbing up to the dome to enjoy the view over Rome. If you buy your\nticket for St. Peter’s Basilica\nonline in advance, you will not only have priority admission, but a guided tour may also be included!\nPalatine Hill:\nThe Palatine Hill is the oldest inhabited part of Rome, because people lived here already in the 10th century BC. It is one of seven hills in Rome and if legend is to be believed, this is where the city was founded in the 8th century BC. Today you can visit the temple ruins like the House of August. As mentioned before, you can also get\na combo ticket for the Palatine Hill\n, which includes admission to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum.\nThe Roman Forum is a popular tourist attraction.\nOther highlights in Rome\nLoad more articles\nThe best tours in Rome\nThere is no better way to get to know the charm and history of a city than with a guided tour. Especially in historic Rome, it’s worth exploring the city with a tour guide and learning the insider tips of the locals. Therefore, we present you the best tours in Rome that can inspire you for your vacation in Rome.\nVatican Museums, Sistine Chapel & St. Peter’s Basilica Guided Tour:\nIf you want to visit these top sights in Rome, then this tour is even more worthwhile. Because your tour guide will not only give you exciting information about the sights, but will also take you to places that are not usually seen by tourists.\nHop-On Hop-Off Tour:\nOn a Hop-On Hop-Off tour, you can get a good overview of the city while getting the most important information about the sights. If you want to take a closer look at a sight, you can simply get off and continue the tour at a later time. This is a great opportunity especially for first-time visitors.\nStreet food tour with Roman tour guide:\nOn this tour you will get to know the culinary side of Rome and try all the specialties. Between the stops your tour guide will tell you something about the city and so in the best case you will not only be full, but also know more about the Italian capital.\nCrypts & Catacombs Tour:\nDiscover Rome’s underworlds with your tour guide and learn more about the city’s history. You will discover several crypts and catacombs and learn a lot about the underground life in Rome.\nDay trip to Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa:\nIf you have enough time, we recommend this trip to Tivoli, where you can visit the Renaissance Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa, where Emperor Hadrian retired.\nSightseeing Tours in Rome\nOur Rome Tips\nIf you want to travel to Rome, the fastest and cheapest option is to travel by plane.\nMost major US and UK airports offer direct flights to the Italian city.\nYou will arrive either at\nFiumicino airport\n, the larger airport, or at the\nairport\nCiampino\n. Both are located a few kilometers outside the center, so you must remember to book a\ntransfer from the airport to Rome\n.\nSince the Italian capital has a large train station, the Rom Termini, you can also arrive\nby train\n. Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long.\nWe would\nnot recommend\nyou to go to Rome by\ncar\n, because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site\ndo not exactly spread a vacation mood.\nThe Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city.\nThe best time to visit Rome\nOnce you’ve decided on one of the travel options, you’ll need to consider when exactly you’re planning your Rome vacation. One thing in advance: the city is worth a visit at\nany time of the year\n. So, when choosing the right time to travel, it all depends on what you expect from your Rome vacation.\nSpring is especially suitable for a trip to Rome\nif you want to explore many of the sights. Since the weather can still be rainy in March, the city is not yet so crowded and the waiting times for the sights are automatically reduced. So if you don’t mind possibly escaping to a museum every now and then to escape the rain,\nMarch might be the right travel month for you\n. Of course, you should pay attention to the Easter holidays, because during these the city and especially the Vatican is full as never!\nThe most popular time to visit Rome is, of course, summer:\nwarm temperatures, delicious ice cream, and trips to the sea will make your trip a perfect summer vacation. But since the weather can get really hot and the city isn’t exactly empty at this time of year, it’s obviously not for everyone. Sightseeing becomes more strenuous and\nwaiting times lengthen\n. But you can experience Rome with all its charm and observe the hustle and bustle of the city.\nAutumn\nbehaves similarly to spring, except that you can be even luckier with warm and sunny days. In winter, the trip is probably\nthe cheapest\n– but of course you won’t have great weather, which admittedly greatly affects the flair of the city.\nIn general, temperatures in Rome are usually between\n4°C and 31°C\n, so you don’t have to expect great snowfalls, for example.\nMetro or Hop On Hop Off Tour in Rome?\nFinally arrived in the city, the question is how you can best explore the city. Rome offers enough possibilities to move from A to B with the metro, buses, and streetcars. Basically, we would just recommend you look for accommodation in the center, because this way you don’t have to use public transportation at all. Should the walk or the weather be too strenuous for you, the\nHop-On Hop-Off bus\ncould be a good alternative for you. The buses go to all major stations and allow you to get on and off at any time. You will also receive information about the individual stations on the bus itself. Especially for tourists visiting Rome for the first time, this is a great way to discover Rome. If you prefer to use the metro, streetcar, or regular buses, we have summarized detailed information here.\nLoad more articles\nHow long should you stay in Rome?\nThe question of how many days you should plan for your Rome vacation depends on what you hope to get out of the trip. With\n3 days in Rome\nyou can discover the most important sights and get an impression of the city. It’s definitely worth it, but Rome has so much to offer that we would definitely recommend 5 days or longer.\nLoad more articles\nFood in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more\nWe don’t need to tell you which specialties you should definitely eat in Rome: Pizza, pasta, antipasti and of course wine, tiramisu and ice cream should be on your list. However, since Rome is a touristy city, you should look carefully where you go to eat, because authentic Italian restaurants are unfortunately somewhat lost in the typical tourist districts. If you are recruited from the street to come to the restaurant, you can be sure that you will be seated next to many other tourists. For an authentic Roman dining experience, it’s worth visiting the Trastevere, Monti or Testaccio neighborhoods.\nIf you visit Rome, of course you have to try an Italian pizza!\nYou can actually pay by card everywhere in Rome, so you don’t have to carry around large amounts of cash. When you eat in a restaurant in Rome, you don’t have to tip extra, because 10-15% is already added to the bill for the service. With good service, however, everyone is of course still happy about a small tip.\nIf you want to get to know the culinary side of Rome a little better, we can recommend a\nfood tour of Rome\n.\nRestaurants in Rome\n01\nTonnarello\nRestaurant\nin\nTrastevere\nAdd to myTravel\nadded\nOver 6,000 positive reviews on Google, even more than 18,000 on Tripadvisor – and always over 20 metres long queues in front of the door. Tonnarello is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after addresses in Trastevere. We think:\nIt’s worth queuing!\nThat’s what the locals will tell you.\nPasta in perfection.\n02\nGrazia & Graziella EN\nRestaurant\nin\nTrastevere\nAdd to myTravel\nadded\nDirectly opposite the Tonnarello, queues form in the opposite direction of the street: a seat at Grazia & Graziella is also much wanted. Here, the waiting time is sweetened with\na prosecco\nin a plastic cup. Here, too, the wait for the homemade specialties is definitely worth it.\n03\nFlavio al Velavevodetto EN\nRestaurant\nin\nTestaccio EN\nAdd to myTravel\nadded\nAt Flavio al Velavevodetto you have a spectacular view, even without daylight, of artfully illuminated piles of shards. But it’s not only the flair and the view that make the restaurant worth a visit, but also the excellent Roman food such as fried artichokes or tiramisu! Our tip: Make sure you book in advance to ensure you get a seat.\nShopping in Rome\nThat you can buy Italy particularly chic and high-quality fashion is nothing new and therefore it is no surprise that you also have numerous shopping opportunities in Rome. For shopping and browsing, all the streets around Via Condotti are perfect. Here you will also find numerous designer brands. If you want something cheaper, you can go to Galleria Alberto Sordi or Via del Corso – on this 1.5 kilometer long shopping street you will find normal stores like Zara or H&M, but also Italian brands!\nWhen shopping, you can actually pay by card everywhere. Our tip: Beware of the street vendors in Rome. Designer fakes are often sold here, which is strictly forbidden in Italy!\nMore shopping tips for Rome\nLoad more articles\nCheap to Rome with our money saving tips\nAs in many other big cities, there are also different sightseeing passes in Rome, with which you can enjoy your vacation in Rome cheaper. Among other things, the sightseeing passes allow you free entrance to the most popular sights or the use of public transport. Since there are different passes with different benefits, we have already written down the advantages and disadvantages of each pass in detail:\nThe Go Rome Explorer Pass\nThe Rome Visit Pass\nThe Rome Blue Siat Pass\nThe Omnia Card Rome & Vatican\nThe Roma Pass\nAs written above, we can also suggest you to buy your tickets for Rome online in advance to save either money or time.\nTours & Tickets for Rome\nLoad more articles\nHotels and Airbnb in Rome\nAs in most big cities, we can definitely recommend you to look for accommodation in the center of Rome. You are usually within a 40 minute walk of all the top sights and can save money on public transportation. Besides, you can experience life in Rome much better in the center and use your precious time for sightseeing rather than for long train rides. If you are younger and would like to go to a hipper neighborhood, we can recommend the Trastevere neighborhood, as there is a lot of hustle and bustle here, even at night.\nWhether you prefer to book a hotel or an Airbnb in Rome is a matter of taste. While you’ll often have breakfast options at a hotel, you can feel like a local at an Airbnb and possibly even save compared to a hotel.\nFind Airbnb in Rome\nHotels in the main districts of Rome\nHotels near attractions\nMore about Rome\nLoad more articles","attrs_markdown":"![](https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tr?id=562696580519791&ev=PageView&noscript=1)\n\n[![Loving Travel Logo](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Loving-Travel-Logo.svg)](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/)\n\n- [Your Rome Trip](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome\/)\n- THINGS TO SEE\n  THE BEST ARTICLES, JUST FOR YOU\n  \n  - [THINGS TO SEE](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/sights-in-rome\/)\n  - [Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/castel-sant-angelo\/)\n- Things to do in Rome\n  THE BEST ARTICLES, JUST FOR YOU\n  \n  - [Things to do](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/things-to-do-in-rome\/ \"in Rome\")\n  - [Rome in March: A million reasons why it’s worth it\\!](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-march\/)\n  - [Rome in April: The best time to explore the eternal city\\!](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-april\/)\n  - [Rome in May: The perfect month for a city trip](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-may\/)\n  - [Rom in June – Its time for the ultimative summer vacation](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-june\/)\n  - [Rome in July: Summertime in the Eternal City](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-july\/)\n  - [Rome in August: Why Rome is worth a trip even in August](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-august\/)\n  - [Rome in September – The best time to visit the Eternal City](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome-september\/)\n- [Rooftop Bars in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rooftop-bars-in-rome\/ \"in Rome\")\n\n![open search](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lnyc\/img\/icons\/black\/search.svg) SEARCH\n\n![open sub menu](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/themes\/lnyc\/img\/icons\/black\/heart.svg) myTravel\n\n- Einloggen\/Registrieren\n- [Inspiration](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/mytravel-plans\/)\n\nMenu\n\nEnter a search term or a page code from the guide.\n\n![Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\\!](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/181206151522001-1600x960.jpg)\n\n[Startseite](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/loving-travel\/) › [Travel Guides](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/stadtteil\/travel-guides) › [Europe](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/stadtteil\/europe) › [Italy](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/stadtteil\/italy) › [Latium](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/stadtteil\/latium) › [Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/stadtteil\/rome) › Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\\!\n\n# Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\\!\n![Image from author Steffen](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Steffen-Roadtrip-USA-150x150.jpg)\n\nSteffen\n\n344 ratings\n\n**Your one-stop travel plan with all the info you need**\n\nAdd this and other places to your personal travel plan.

Both are located a few kilometers outside the center, so you must remember to book a [transfer from the airport to Rome](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rome-l33\/rome-fiumicino-airport-rome-termini-direct-bus-transfer-t214938\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide).\n\nSince the Italian capital has a large train station, the Rom Termini, you can also arrive [by train](https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=14964&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom). Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long.\n\nWe would **not recommend** you to go to Rome by [car](https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=8621&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom&ued=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.europcar.de), because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site **do not exactly spread a vacation mood.**\n\n![In front of the Colosseum in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Kolosseum-Rom-Tour-5.jpg)\n\nThe Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city.\n### The best time to visit Rome\nOnce you’ve decided on one of the travel options, you’ll need to consider when exactly you’re planning your Rome vacation. One thing in advance: the city is worth a visit at **any time of the year**. So, when choosing the right time to travel, it all depends on what you expect from your Rome vacation. **Spring is especially suitable for a trip to Rome** if you want to explore many of the sights. Since the weather can still be rainy in March, the city is not yet so crowded and the waiting times for the sights are automatically reduced. So if you don’t mind possibly escaping to a museum every now and then to escape the rain, **March might be the right travel month for you**. Of course, you should pay attention to the Easter holidays, because during these the city and especially the Vatican is full as never\\!\n\n**The most popular time to visit Rome is, of course, summer:** warm temperatures, delicious ice cream, and trips to the sea will make your trip a perfect summer vacation. But since the weather can get really hot and the city isn’t exactly empty at this time of year, it’s obviously not for everyone. Sightseeing becomes more strenuous and **waiting times lengthen**. But you can experience Rome with all its charm and observe the hustle and bustle of the city.\n\n**Autumn** behaves similarly to spring, except that you can be even luckier with warm and sunny days. In winter, the trip is probably **the cheapest** – but of course you won’t have great weather, which admittedly greatly affects the flair of the city.\n\nIn general, temperatures in Rome are usually between **4°C and 31°C**, so you don’t have to expect great snowfalls, for example.\n\n### Metro or Hop On Hop Off Tour in Rome?\nFinally arrived in the city, the question is how you can best explore the city. Rome offers enough possibilities to move from A to B with the metro, buses, and streetcars. Basically, we would just recommend you look for accommodation in the center, because this way you don’t have to use public transportation at all. Should the walk or the weather be too strenuous for you, the **Hop-On Hop-Off bus** could be a good alternative for you. The buses go to all major stations and allow you to get on and off at any time. You will also receive information about the individual stations on the bus itself. Especially for tourists visiting Rome for the first time, this is a great way to discover Rome. If you prefer to use the metro, streetcar, or regular buses, we have summarized detailed information here.\n\nLoad more articles\n\n### How long should you stay in Rome?\nThe question of how many days you should plan for your Rome vacation depends on what you hope to get out of the trip. With [3 days in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/3-days-in-rome\/) you can discover the most important sights and get an impression of the city. It’s definitely worth it, but Rome has so much to offer that we would definitely recommend 5 days or longer.\n\nLoad more articles\n\n## Food in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more\nWe don’t need to tell you which specialties you should definitely eat in Rome: Pizza, pasta, antipasti and of course wine, tiramisu and ice cream should be on your list. However, since Rome is a touristy city, you should look carefully where you go to eat, because authentic Italian restaurants are unfortunately somewhat lost in the typical tourist districts. If you are recruited from the street to come to the restaurant, you can be sure that you will be seated next to many other tourists. For an authentic Roman dining experience, it’s worth visiting the Trastevere, Monti or Testaccio neighborhoods.\n\n![Sliced pizza in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Pizza-schneiden-Restaurant-Rom-10x5.jpg)\n\nIf you visit Rome, of course you have to try an Italian pizza\\!\n\nYou can actually pay by card everywhere in Rome, so you don’t have to carry around large amounts of cash. When you eat in a restaurant in Rome, you don’t have to tip extra, because 10-15% is already added to the bill for the service. With good service, however, everyone is of course still happy about a small tip.\n\nIf you want to get to know the culinary side of Rome a little better, we can recommend a [food tour of Rome](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rome-l33\/rome-small-group-street-food-tour-with-local-guide-t74483\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide).\n\n### Restaurants in Rome\n1. 01\n   \n   ### Tonnarello\n   Restaurant  in Trastevere\n   ![Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001-10x5.jpg)\n   \n   Add to myTravel added\n   \n   Over 6,000 positive reviews on Google, even more than 18,000 on Tripadvisor – and always over 20 metres long queues in front of the door. Tonnarello is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after addresses in Trastevere. We think: **It’s worth queuing\\!** That’s what the locals will tell you. **Pasta in perfection.**\n   \n   [to the website](https:\/\/tonnarello.it\/en\/homepage-2\/)\n2. 02\n   \n   ### Grazia & Graziella EN\n   Restaurant  in Trastevere\n   ![Pasta-Rom](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Pasta-Rom-10x5.jpg)\n   \n   Add to myTravel added\n   \n   Directly opposite the Tonnarello, queues form in the opposite direction of the street: a seat at Grazia & Graziella is also much wanted. Here, the waiting time is sweetened with **a prosecco** in a plastic cup. Here, too, the wait for the homemade specialties is definitely worth it.\n3. 03\n   \n   ### Flavio al Velavevodetto EN\n   Restaurant  in Testaccio EN\n   Add to myTravel added\n   \n   At Flavio al Velavevodetto you have a spectacular view, even without daylight, of artfully illuminated piles of shards. But it’s not only the flair and the view that make the restaurant worth a visit, but also the excellent Roman food such as fried artichokes or tiramisu! Our tip: Make sure you book in advance to ensure you get a seat.\n## Shopping in Rome\nThat you can buy Italy particularly chic and high-quality fashion is nothing new and therefore it is no surprise that you also have numerous shopping opportunities in Rome. For shopping and browsing, all the streets around Via Condotti are perfect. Here you will also find numerous designer brands. If you want something cheaper, you can go to Galleria Alberto Sordi or Via del Corso – on this 1.5 kilometer long shopping street you will find normal stores like Zara or H\\&M, but also Italian brands\\!\n\nWhen shopping, you can actually pay by card everywhere. Our tip: Beware of the street vendors in Rome. Designer fakes are often sold here, which is strictly forbidden in Italy\\!\n\n### More shopping tips for Rome\nLoad more articles\n\n## Cheap to Rome with our money saving tips\n![Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\\!](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Roma-Pass-72-h-Stunden-10x7.jpg)As in many other big cities, there are also different sightseeing passes in Rome, with which you can enjoy your vacation in Rome cheaper. Among other things, the sightseeing passes allow you free entrance to the most popular sights or the use of public transport. Since there are different passes with different benefits, we have already written down the advantages and disadvantages of each pass in detail:\n\n- The Go Rome Explorer Pass\n- The Rome Visit Pass\n- The Rome Blue Siat Pass\n- The Omnia Card Rome & Vatican\n- The Roma Pass\n\nAs written above, we can also suggest you to buy your tickets for Rome online in advance to save either money or time.\n\n[Tours & Tickets for Rome](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.de\/rom-l33\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide)\n\nLoad more articles\n\n## Hotels and Airbnb in Rome\nAs in most big cities, we can definitely recommend you to look for accommodation in the center of Rome. You are usually within a 40 minute walk of all the top sights and can save money on public transportation. Besides, you can experience life in Rome much better in the center and use your precious time for sightseeing rather than for long train rides. If you are younger and would like to go to a hipper neighborhood, we can recommend the Trastevere neighborhood, as there is a lot of hustle and bustle here, even at night.\n\nWhether you prefer to book a hotel or an Airbnb in Rome is a matter of taste. While you’ll often have breakfast options at a hotel, you can feel like a local at an Airbnb and possibly even save compared to a hotel.\n\n[Find Airbnb in Rome](https:\/\/www.airbnb.de\/c\/skneist)\n\n### Hotels in the main districts of Rome\n***\n### Hotels near attractions\n***\n### Boutique-Hotels, Hotels with a view or Pool\n***\n## More about Rome\nLoad more articles\n\n## Related articles\n- ![Rome Things to see](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/181204162742008-10x7.jpg)\n  ### The 23 best sights in Rome\n  Rome is one big open-air museum with an incredible amount to discover.\n  \n  Discover now:[Best Things to see in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/sights-in-rome\/)\n- ![Rome Things to do ](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Rome-Header-10x4.jpg)\n  ### Our top 30 “things to do” in Rome\\!\n  Here you will find our 30 favorite things to do in Rome, that should definitely end up on your list....\n  \n  Discover now:[Best Things to do in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/things-to-do-in-rome\/)\n\n[![Profilbild Steffen](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Steffen-Roadtrip-USA.jpg)](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/author\/steffen\/ \"Steffen\")\n\nAbout the author\n\n# [Steffen](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/author\/steffen\/ \"Steffen\")\nI am an absolute travel enthusiast with a great love for the USA, Spain and Italy.

Therefore, there are of course a few sights that you must not miss on your Rome vacation. To make your trip easier, we’ve picked out the top 5 things to see in Rome.  \n ![Hamburg](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/TOP-5-Sign-2-e1583774737146.png)\n\n- **Colosseum:** The Colosseum is known worldwide and is the landmark of Rome. It has even been included in the list of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World because it is the largest amphitheater in the world. A visit to the Colosseum is an absolute must during your vacation in Rome! Since the waiting times on site can be very long with over 5 million visitors a year, we recommend you buy your ticket for the Colosseum online in advance – it’s a bit more expensive than standing in line, but it will save you valuable time. It’s best to buy a [combined ticket for the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rome-l33\/skip-the-line-colosseum-and-ancient-rome-walking-tour-t7725\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) with one tour, so you can see all the top Rome sights and get interesting information\\!\n- **Roman Forum:** The Roman Forum dates back to the 6th century BC and was a central place in the history of Rome. In the past, emperors were crowned here, markets were held and much more. The Roman Forum, along with the Colosseum and Palatine Hill, should definitely be on your things to do list, which is why the Forum only has combo tickets with the other two sights. You can buy the combined ticket on site for only 12 euros, but even here you have to expect long waiting times. Therefore, we prefer to buy a slightly more expensive online [ticket for the Roman Forum with priority admission](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/colosseum-l2619\/colosseum-forum-and-palatine-hill-tour-t217527\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide \"Rome Ticket\").\n- **Pantheon:** The Pantheon is not only one of the free Rome sights, but also one of the oldest surviving buildings from antiquity. It was built in the 2nd century AD as a house for all the gods and then used as a church.\n- St**. Peter’s Basilica:** St. Peter’s Basilica is one of the largest and most important church buildings in the world. Located in the middle of the Vatican City, the church convinces not only from the outside, but also from the inside. Be sure to check out the basilica! It is also worth climbing up to the dome to enjoy the view over Rome. If you buy your [ticket for St. Peter’s Basilica](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/rome\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) online in advance, you will not only have priority admission, but a guided tour may also be included\\!\n- **Palatine Hill:** The Palatine Hill is the oldest inhabited part of Rome, because people lived here already in the 10th century BC. It is one of seven hills in Rome and if legend is to be believed, this is where the city was founded in the 8th century BC. Today you can visit the temple ruins like the House of August. As mentioned before, you can also get [a combo ticket for the Palatine Hill](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rome-l33\/rome-colosseum-and-roman-forum-tour-with-priority-access-t183914\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide), which includes admission to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum.\n\n![Roman Forum Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/181204162742003-1600x800.jpg)\n\nThe Roman Forum is a popular tourist attraction.\n### Other highlights in Rome\nLoad more articles\n\n## ![TOP 5 TOUREN](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TOP-5-TOURS-e1643033456849.png)\n## The best tours in Rome\nThere is no better way to get to know the charm and history of a city than with a guided tour.

Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long.\n\nWe would **not recommend** you to go to Rome by [car](https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=8621&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom&ued=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.europcar.de), because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site **do not exactly spread a vacation mood.**\n\n![In front of the Colosseum in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Kolosseum-Rom-Tour-5.jpg)\n\nThe Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city.\n### The best time to visit Rome\nOnce you’ve decided on one of the travel options, you’ll need to consider when exactly you’re planning your Rome vacation. One thing in advance: the city is worth a visit at **any time of the year**. So, when choosing the right time to travel, it all depends on what you expect from your Rome vacation. **Spring is especially suitable for a trip to Rome** if you want to explore many of the sights. Since the weather can still be rainy in March, the city is not yet so crowded and the waiting times for the sights are automatically reduced. So if you don’t mind possibly escaping to a museum every now and then to escape the rain, **March might be the right travel month for you**. Of course, you should pay attention to the Easter holidays, because during these the city and especially the Vatican is full as never\\!\n\n**The most popular time to visit Rome is, of course, summer:** warm temperatures, delicious ice cream, and trips to the sea will make your trip a perfect summer vacation. But since the weather can get really hot and the city isn’t exactly empty at this time of year, it’s obviously not for everyone. Sightseeing becomes more strenuous and **waiting times lengthen**. But you can experience Rome with all its charm and observe the hustle and bustle of the city.\n\n**Autumn** behaves similarly to spring, except that you can be even luckier with warm and sunny days. In winter, the trip is probably **the cheapest** – but of course you won’t have great weather, which admittedly greatly affects the flair of the city.\n\nIn general, temperatures in Rome are usually between **4°C and 31°C**, so you don’t have to expect great snowfalls, for example.\n\n### Metro or Hop On Hop Off Tour in Rome?\nFinally arrived in the city, the question is how you can best explore the city. Rome offers enough possibilities to move from A to B with the metro, buses, and streetcars. Basically, we would just recommend you look for accommodation in the center, because this way you don’t have to use public transportation at all. Should the walk or the weather be too strenuous for you, the **Hop-On Hop-Off bus** could be a good alternative for you. The buses go to all major stations and allow you to get on and off at any time. You will also receive information about the individual stations on the bus itself. Especially for tourists visiting Rome for the first time, this is a great way to discover Rome. If you prefer to use the metro, streetcar, or regular buses, we have summarized detailed information here.\n\nLoad more articles\n\n### How long should you stay in Rome?\nThe question of how many days you should plan for your Rome vacation depends on what you hope to get out of the trip. With [3 days in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/en\/3-days-in-rome\/) you can discover the most important sights and get an impression of the city. It’s definitely worth it, but Rome has so much to offer that we would definitely recommend 5 days or longer.\n\nLoad more articles\n\n## Food in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more\nWe don’t need to tell you which specialties you should definitely eat in Rome: Pizza, pasta, antipasti and of course wine, tiramisu and ice cream should be on your list. However, since Rome is a touristy city, you should look carefully where you go to eat, because authentic Italian restaurants are unfortunately somewhat lost in the typical tourist districts. If you are recruited from the street to come to the restaurant, you can be sure that you will be seated next to many other tourists. For an authentic Roman dining experience, it’s worth visiting the Trastevere, Monti or Testaccio neighborhoods.\n\n![Sliced pizza in Rome](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Pizza-schneiden-Restaurant-Rom.jpg)\n\nIf you visit Rome, of course you have to try an Italian pizza\\!\n\nYou can actually pay by card everywhere in Rome, so you don’t have to carry around large amounts of cash. When you eat in a restaurant in Rome, you don’t have to tip extra, because 10-15% is already added to the bill for the service. With good service, however, everyone is of course still happy about a small tip.\n\nIf you want to get to know the culinary side of Rome a little better, we can recommend a [food tour of Rome](https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rome-l33\/rome-small-group-street-food-tour-with-local-guide-t74483\/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide).\n\n### Restaurants in Rome\n1. 01\n   \n   ### Tonnarello\n   Restaurant  in Trastevere\n   ![Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001](https:\/\/loving-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001-400x200.jpg)\n   \n   Add to myTravel added\n   \n   Over 6,000 positive reviews on Google, even more than 18,000 on Tripadvisor – and always over 20 metres long queues in front of the door.

Our tip: Make sure you book in advance to ensure you get a seat.\n## Shopping in Rome\nThat you can buy Italy particularly chic and high-quality fashion is nothing new and therefore it is no surprise that you also have numerous shopping opportunities in Rome. For shopping and browsing, all the streets around Via Condotti are perfect. Here you will also find numerous designer brands.

Boilerpipe Text	Rome is a beautiful historical city in Italy that you must see once in your life. In your Rome vacation you can get to know the “la dolce vita” and walk in the footsteps of the once most powerful empire in Europe. Where the Roman Empire once developed, historical ruins now stand. Rome is the perfect blend of modern city life and historical sights with unique architecture. Therefore, we would like to introduce you to the capital of Italy for your vacation in more detail. Show Ticket table of content The top things to see in Rome The best tours in Rome Our Rome Tips Food in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more Shopping in Rome Cheap to Rome with our money saving tips Hotels and Airbnb in Rome More about Rome The top things to see in Rome As I said, Rome is a very historic city. Therefore, there are of course a few sights that you must not miss on your Rome vacation. To make your trip easier, we’ve picked out the top 5 things to see in Rome. Colosseum: The Colosseum is known worldwide and is the landmark of Rome. It has even been included in the list of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World because it is the largest amphitheater in the world. A visit to the Colosseum is an absolute must during your vacation in Rome! Since the waiting times on site can be very long with over 5 million visitors a year, we recommend you buy your ticket for the Colosseum online in advance – it’s a bit more expensive than standing in line, but it will save you valuable time. It’s best to buy a combined ticket for the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill with one tour, so you can see all the top Rome sights and get interesting information! Roman Forum: The Roman Forum dates back to the 6th century BC and was a central place in the history of Rome. In the past, emperors were crowned here, markets were held and much more. The Roman Forum, along with the Colosseum and Palatine Hill, should definitely be on your things to do list, which is why the Forum only has combo tickets with the other two sights. You can buy the combined ticket on site for only 12 euros, but even here you have to expect long waiting times. Therefore, we prefer to buy a slightly more expensive online ticket for the Roman Forum with priority admission . Pantheon: The Pantheon is not only one of the free Rome sights, but also one of the oldest surviving buildings from antiquity. It was built in the 2nd century AD as a house for all the gods and then used as a church. St . Peter’s Basilica: St. Peter’s Basilica is one of the largest and most important church buildings in the world. Located in the middle of the Vatican City, the church convinces not only from the outside, but also from the inside. Be sure to check out the basilica! It is also worth climbing up to the dome to enjoy the view over Rome. If you buy your ticket for St. Peter’s Basilica online in advance, you will not only have priority admission, but a guided tour may also be included! Palatine Hill: The Palatine Hill is the oldest inhabited part of Rome, because people lived here already in the 10th century BC. It is one of seven hills in Rome and if legend is to be believed, this is where the city was founded in the 8th century BC. Today you can visit the temple ruins like the House of August. As mentioned before, you can also get a combo ticket for the Palatine Hill , which includes admission to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. The Roman Forum is a popular tourist attraction. Other highlights in Rome Load more articles The best tours in Rome There is no better way to get to know the charm and history of a city than with a guided tour. Especially in historic Rome, it’s worth exploring the city with a tour guide and learning the insider tips of the locals. Therefore, we present you the best tours in Rome that can inspire you for your vacation in Rome. Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel & St. Peter’s Basilica Guided Tour: If you want to visit these top sights in Rome, then this tour is even more worthwhile. Because your tour guide will not only give you exciting information about the sights, but will also take you to places that are not usually seen by tourists. Hop-On Hop-Off Tour: On a Hop-On Hop-Off tour, you can get a good overview of the city while getting the most important information about the sights. If you want to take a closer look at a sight, you can simply get off and continue the tour at a later time. This is a great opportunity especially for first-time visitors. Street food tour with Roman tour guide: On this tour you will get to know the culinary side of Rome and try all the specialties. Between the stops your tour guide will tell you something about the city and so in the best case you will not only be full, but also know more about the Italian capital. Crypts & Catacombs Tour: Discover Rome’s underworlds with your tour guide and learn more about the city’s history. You will discover several crypts and catacombs and learn a lot about the underground life in Rome. Day trip to Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa: If you have enough time, we recommend this trip to Tivoli, where you can visit the Renaissance Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa, where Emperor Hadrian retired. Sightseeing Tours in Rome Our Rome Tips If you want to travel to Rome, the fastest and cheapest option is to travel by plane. Most major US and UK airports offer direct flights to the Italian city. You will arrive either at Fiumicino airport , the larger airport, or at the airport Ciampino . Both are located a few kilometers outside the center, so you must remember to book a transfer from the airport to Rome . Since the Italian capital has a large train station, the Rom Termini, you can also arrive by train . Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long. We would not recommend you to go to Rome by car , because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site do not exactly spread a vacation mood. The Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city.

It was built in the 2nd century AD as a house for all the gods and then used as a church. - St. Peter’s Basilica: St. Peter’s Basilica is one of the largest and most important church buildings in the world. Located in the middle of the Vatican City, the church convinces not only from the outside, but also from the inside. Be sure to check out the basilica! It is also worth climbing up to the dome to enjoy the view over Rome. If you buy your [ticket for St. Peter’s Basilica](https://loving-travel.com/en/rome/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) online in advance, you will not only have priority admission, but a guided tour may also be included\! - Palatine Hill: The Palatine Hill is the oldest inhabited part of Rome, because people lived here already in the 10th century BC. It is one of seven hills in Rome and if legend is to be believed, this is where the city was founded in the 8th century BC. Today you can visit the temple ruins like the House of August. As mentioned before, you can also get [a combo ticket for the Palatine Hill](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-colosseum-and-roman-forum-tour-with-priority-access-t183914/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide), which includes admission to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. ![Roman Forum Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/181204162742003-1600x800.jpg) The Roman Forum is a popular tourist attraction. ### Other highlights in Rome [![Spanish Staircase Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/181204162742008-640x640.jpg) Attractions The 23 best sights in Rome Rome has many world-famous sights to offer.

Especially in historic Rome, it’s worth exploring the city with a tour guide and learning the insider tips of the locals. Therefore, we present you the best tours in Rome that can inspire you for your vacation in Rome. - [Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel & St. Peter’s Basilica Guided Tour:](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/skip-the-line-vatican-museums-sistine-chapel-st-peter-s-t1103/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) If you want to visit these top sights in Rome, then this tour is even more worthwhile. Because your tour guide will not only give you exciting information about the sights, but will also take you to places that are not usually seen by tourists. - [Hop-On Hop-Off Tour:](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-double-decker-hop-on-hop-off-tour-t25686/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) On a Hop-On Hop-Off tour, you can get a good overview of the city while getting the most important information about the sights. If you want to take a closer look at a sight, you can simply get off and continue the tour at a later time. This is a great opportunity especially for first-time visitors. - [Street food tour with Roman tour guide:](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-street-food-and-sightseeing-guided-tour-t251502/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) On this tour you will get to know the culinary side of Rome and try all the specialties. Between the stops your tour guide will tell you something about the city and so in the best case you will not only be full, but also know more about the Italian capital. - [Crypts & Catacombs Tour:](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/beneath-rome-crypts-and-catacombs-half-day-tour-t13997/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) Discover Rome’s underworlds with your tour guide and learn more about the city’s history. You will discover several crypts and catacombs and learn a lot about the underground life in Rome. - [Day trip to Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa:](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-day-tour-of-villa-d-este-hadrian-s-villa-tivoli-t131202/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) If you have enough time, we recommend this trip to Tivoli, where you can visit the Renaissance Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa, where Emperor Hadrian retired. ![Vatican Museums Gallery of Maps](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Vatikanische-Museen-Galerie-der-Landkarten.jpg) [Sightseeing Tours in Rome](https://www.getyourguide.de/discovery/rom-l33/sightseeing-touren-tc2/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) ## ## Our Rome Tips If you want to travel to Rome, the fastest and cheapest option is to travel by plane. Most major US and UK airports offer direct flights to the Italian city. You will arrive either at Fiumicino airport, the larger airport, or at the airport Ciampino. Both are located a few kilometers outside the center, so you must remember to book a [transfer from the airport to Rome](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-fiumicino-airport-rome-termini-direct-bus-transfer-t214938/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide). Since the Italian capital has a large train station, the Rom Termini, you can also arrive [by train](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=14964&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom). Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long. We would not recommend you to go to Rome by [car](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=8621&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom&ued=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.europcar.de), because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site do not exactly spread a vacation mood. ![In front of the Colosseum in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Kolosseum-Rom-Tour-5.jpg) The Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city. ### The best time to visit Rome Once you’ve decided on one of the travel options, you’ll need to consider when exactly you’re planning your Rome vacation. One thing in advance: the city is worth a visit at any time of the year. So, when choosing the right time to travel, it all depends on what you expect from your Rome vacation. Spring is especially suitable for a trip to Rome if you want to explore many of the sights. Since the weather can still be rainy in March, the city is not yet so crowded and the waiting times for the sights are automatically reduced. So if you don’t mind possibly escaping to a museum every now and then to escape the rain, March might be the right travel month for you. Of course, you should pay attention to the Easter holidays, because during these the city and especially the Vatican is full as never\! The most popular time to visit Rome is, of course, summer: warm temperatures, delicious ice cream, and trips to the sea will make your trip a perfect summer vacation. But since the weather can get really hot and the city isn’t exactly empty at this time of year, it’s obviously not for everyone. Sightseeing becomes more strenuous and waiting times lengthen. But you can experience Rome with all its charm and observe the hustle and bustle of the city. Autumn behaves similarly to spring, except that you can be even luckier with warm and sunny days. In winter, the trip is probably the cheapest – but of course you won’t have great weather, which admittedly greatly affects the flair of the city. In general, temperatures in Rome are usually between 4°C and 31°C, so you don’t have to expect great snowfalls, for example. ### Metro or Hop On Hop Off Tour in Rome? Finally arrived in the city, the question is how you can best explore the city. Rome offers enough possibilities to move from A to B with the metro, buses, and streetcars. Basically, we would just recommend you look for accommodation in the center, because this way you don’t have to use public transportation at all. Should the walk or the weather be too strenuous for you, the Hop-On Hop-Off bus could be a good alternative for you. The buses go to all major stations and allow you to get on and off at any time. You will also receive information about the individual stations on the bus itself. Especially for tourists visiting Rome for the first time, this is a great way to discover Rome. If you prefer to use the metro, streetcar, or regular buses, we have summarized detailed information here. Load more articles ### How long should you stay in Rome? The question of how many days you should plan for your Rome vacation depends on what you hope to get out of the trip. With [3 days in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/en/3-days-in-rome/) you can discover the most important sights and get an impression of the city. It’s definitely worth it, but Rome has so much to offer that we would definitely recommend 5 days or longer. Load more articles ## Food in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more We don’t need to tell you which specialties you should definitely eat in Rome: Pizza, pasta, antipasti and of course wine, tiramisu and ice cream should be on your list. However, since Rome is a touristy city, you should look carefully where you go to eat, because authentic Italian restaurants are unfortunately somewhat lost in the typical tourist districts. If you are recruited from the street to come to the restaurant, you can be sure that you will be seated next to many other tourists. For an authentic Roman dining experience, it’s worth visiting the Trastevere, Monti or Testaccio neighborhoods. ![Sliced pizza in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Pizza-schneiden-Restaurant-Rom-10x5.jpg) If you visit Rome, of course you have to try an Italian pizza\! You can actually pay by card everywhere in Rome, so you don’t have to carry around large amounts of cash. When you eat in a restaurant in Rome, you don’t have to tip extra, because 10-15% is already added to the bill for the service. With good service, however, everyone is of course still happy about a small tip. If you want to get to know the culinary side of Rome a little better, we can recommend a [food tour of Rome](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-small-group-street-food-tour-with-local-guide-t74483/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide). ### Restaurants in Rome 1. 01 ### Tonnarello Restaurant in Trastevere ![Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001-10x5.jpg) Add to myTravel added Over 6,000 positive reviews on Google, even more than 18,000 on Tripadvisor – and always over 20 metres long queues in front of the door. Tonnarello is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after addresses in Trastevere. We think: It’s worth queuing\! That’s what the locals will tell you. Pasta in perfection. [to the website](https://tonnarello.it/en/homepage-2/) 2. 02 ### Grazia & Graziella EN Restaurant in Trastevere ![Pasta-Rom](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Pasta-Rom-10x5.jpg) Add to myTravel added Directly opposite the Tonnarello, queues form in the opposite direction of the street: a seat at Grazia & Graziella is also much wanted. Here, the waiting time is sweetened with a prosecco in a plastic cup. Here, too, the wait for the homemade specialties is definitely worth it. 3. 03 ### Flavio al Velavevodetto EN Restaurant in Testaccio EN Add to myTravel added At Flavio al Velavevodetto you have a spectacular view, even without daylight, of artfully illuminated piles of shards. But it’s not only the flair and the view that make the restaurant worth a visit, but also the excellent Roman food such as fried artichokes or tiramisu! Our tip: Make sure you book in advance to ensure you get a seat. ## Shopping in Rome That you can buy Italy particularly chic and high-quality fashion is nothing new and therefore it is no surprise that you also have numerous shopping opportunities in Rome. For shopping and browsing, all the streets around Via Condotti are perfect. Here you will also find numerous designer brands. If you want something cheaper, you can go to Galleria Alberto Sordi or Via del Corso – on this 1.5 kilometer long shopping street you will find normal stores like Zara or H\&M, but also Italian brands\! When shopping, you can actually pay by card everywhere. Our tip: Beware of the street vendors in Rome. Designer fakes are often sold here, which is strictly forbidden in Italy\! ### More shopping tips for Rome Load more articles ## Cheap to Rome with our money saving tips ![Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\!](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Roma-Pass-72-h-Stunden-10x7.jpg)As in many other big cities, there are also different sightseeing passes in Rome, with which you can enjoy your vacation in Rome cheaper. Among other things, the sightseeing passes allow you free entrance to the most popular sights or the use of public transport. Since there are different passes with different benefits, we have already written down the advantages and disadvantages of each pass in detail: - The Go Rome Explorer Pass - The Rome Visit Pass - The Rome Blue Siat Pass - The Omnia Card Rome & Vatican - The Roma Pass As written above, we can also suggest you to buy your tickets for Rome online in advance to save either money or time.

You are usually within a 40 minute walk of all the top sights and can save money on public transportation. Besides, you can experience life in Rome much better in the center and use your precious time for sightseeing rather than for long train rides. If you are younger and would like to go to a hipper neighborhood, we can recommend the Trastevere neighborhood, as there is a lot of hustle and bustle here, even at night. Whether you prefer to book a hotel or an Airbnb in Rome is a matter of taste. While you’ll often have breakfast options at a hotel, you can feel like a local at an Airbnb and possibly even save compared to a hotel.

In your Rome vacation you can get to know the “la dolce vita” and walk in the footsteps of the once most powerful empire in Europe. Where the Roman Empire once developed, historical ruins now stand. Rome is the perfect blend of modern city life and historical sights with unique architecture. Therefore, we would like to introduce you to the capital of Italy for your vacation in more detail.

Therefore, there are of course a few sights that you must not miss on your Rome vacation. To make your trip easier, we’ve picked out the top 5 things to see in Rome. ![Hamburg](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/TOP-5-Sign-2-e1583774737146.png) - Colosseum: The Colosseum is known worldwide and is the landmark of Rome. It has even been included in the list of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World because it is the largest amphitheater in the world. A visit to the Colosseum is an absolute must during your vacation in Rome! Since the waiting times on site can be very long with over 5 million visitors a year, we recommend you buy your ticket for the Colosseum online in advance – it’s a bit more expensive than standing in line, but it will save you valuable time. It’s best to buy a [combined ticket for the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/skip-the-line-colosseum-and-ancient-rome-walking-tour-t7725/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) with one tour, so you can see all the top Rome sights and get interesting information\! - Roman Forum: The Roman Forum dates back to the 6th century BC and was a central place in the history of Rome. In the past, emperors were crowned here, markets were held and much more. The Roman Forum, along with the Colosseum and Palatine Hill, should definitely be on your things to do list, which is why the Forum only has combo tickets with the other two sights. You can buy the combined ticket on site for only 12 euros, but even here you have to expect long waiting times. Therefore, we prefer to buy a slightly more expensive online [ticket for the Roman Forum with priority admission](https://www.getyourguide.com/colosseum-l2619/colosseum-forum-and-palatine-hill-tour-t217527/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide "Rome Ticket"). - Pantheon: The Pantheon is not only one of the free Rome sights, but also one of the oldest surviving buildings from antiquity. It was built in the 2nd century AD as a house for all the gods and then used as a church. - St. Peter’s Basilica: St. Peter’s Basilica is one of the largest and most important church buildings in the world. Located in the middle of the Vatican City, the church convinces not only from the outside, but also from the inside. Be sure to check out the basilica! It is also worth climbing up to the dome to enjoy the view over Rome. If you buy your [ticket for St. Peter’s Basilica](https://loving-travel.com/en/rome/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide) online in advance, you will not only have priority admission, but a guided tour may also be included\! - Palatine Hill: The Palatine Hill is the oldest inhabited part of Rome, because people lived here already in the 10th century BC. It is one of seven hills in Rome and if legend is to be believed, this is where the city was founded in the 8th century BC. Today you can visit the temple ruins like the House of August. As mentioned before, you can also get [a combo ticket for the Palatine Hill](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-colosseum-and-roman-forum-tour-with-priority-access-t183914/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide), which includes admission to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. ![Roman Forum Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/181204162742003-1600x800.jpg) The Roman Forum is a popular tourist attraction. ### Other highlights in Rome Load more articles ## ![TOP 5 TOUREN](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/TOP-5-TOURS-e1643033456849.png) ## The best tours in Rome There is no better way to get to know the charm and history of a city than with a guided tour.

Most major US and UK airports offer direct flights to the Italian city. You will arrive either at Fiumicino airport, the larger airport, or at the airport Ciampino. Both are located a few kilometers outside the center, so you must remember to book a [transfer from the airport to Rome](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-fiumicino-airport-rome-termini-direct-bus-transfer-t214938/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide). Since the Italian capital has a large train station, the Rom Termini, you can also arrive [by train](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=14964&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom). Either use the train to get from the airport to the city or take the train directly to Rome. However, this is only worthwhile if you come from a city in Europe, otherwise it would simply take far too long. We would not recommend you to go to Rome by [car](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=8621&awinaffid=400277&clickref=DE_LTRV_Rom&ued=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.europcar.de), because first of all it takes a long time and secondly the traffic and the parking situation on site do not exactly spread a vacation mood. ![In front of the Colosseum in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Kolosseum-Rom-Tour-5.jpg) The Colosseum in Rome is probably the most famous sight of the city. ### The best time to visit Rome Once you’ve decided on one of the travel options, you’ll need to consider when exactly you’re planning your Rome vacation. One thing in advance: the city is worth a visit at any time of the year. So, when choosing the right time to travel, it all depends on what you expect from your Rome vacation. Spring is especially suitable for a trip to Rome if you want to explore many of the sights. Since the weather can still be rainy in March, the city is not yet so crowded and the waiting times for the sights are automatically reduced. So if you don’t mind possibly escaping to a museum every now and then to escape the rain, March might be the right travel month for you. Of course, you should pay attention to the Easter holidays, because during these the city and especially the Vatican is full as never\! The most popular time to visit Rome is, of course, summer: warm temperatures, delicious ice cream, and trips to the sea will make your trip a perfect summer vacation. But since the weather can get really hot and the city isn’t exactly empty at this time of year, it’s obviously not for everyone. Sightseeing becomes more strenuous and waiting times lengthen. But you can experience Rome with all its charm and observe the hustle and bustle of the city. Autumn behaves similarly to spring, except that you can be even luckier with warm and sunny days. In winter, the trip is probably the cheapest – but of course you won’t have great weather, which admittedly greatly affects the flair of the city. In general, temperatures in Rome are usually between 4°C and 31°C, so you don’t have to expect great snowfalls, for example. ### Metro or Hop On Hop Off Tour in Rome? Finally arrived in the city, the question is how you can best explore the city. Rome offers enough possibilities to move from A to B with the metro, buses, and streetcars. Basically, we would just recommend you look for accommodation in the center, because this way you don’t have to use public transportation at all. Should the walk or the weather be too strenuous for you, the Hop-On Hop-Off bus could be a good alternative for you. The buses go to all major stations and allow you to get on and off at any time. You will also receive information about the individual stations on the bus itself. Especially for tourists visiting Rome for the first time, this is a great way to discover Rome. If you prefer to use the metro, streetcar, or regular buses, we have summarized detailed information here. Load more articles ### How long should you stay in Rome? The question of how many days you should plan for your Rome vacation depends on what you hope to get out of the trip. With [3 days in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/en/3-days-in-rome/) you can discover the most important sights and get an impression of the city. It’s definitely worth it, but Rome has so much to offer that we would definitely recommend 5 days or longer. Load more articles ## Food in Rome: Best Pizza in Rome and more We don’t need to tell you which specialties you should definitely eat in Rome: Pizza, pasta, antipasti and of course wine, tiramisu and ice cream should be on your list. However, since Rome is a touristy city, you should look carefully where you go to eat, because authentic Italian restaurants are unfortunately somewhat lost in the typical tourist districts. If you are recruited from the street to come to the restaurant, you can be sure that you will be seated next to many other tourists. For an authentic Roman dining experience, it’s worth visiting the Trastevere, Monti or Testaccio neighborhoods. ![Sliced pizza in Rome](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Pizza-schneiden-Restaurant-Rom.jpg) If you visit Rome, of course you have to try an Italian pizza\! You can actually pay by card everywhere in Rome, so you don’t have to carry around large amounts of cash. When you eat in a restaurant in Rome, you don’t have to tip extra, because 10-15% is already added to the bill for the service. With good service, however, everyone is of course still happy about a small tip. If you want to get to know the culinary side of Rome a little better, we can recommend a [food tour of Rome](https://www.getyourguide.com/rome-l33/rome-small-group-street-food-tour-with-local-guide-t74483/?partner_id=8J84HJE&utm_medium=online_publisher&mkt_cmp=true&placement=content-middle&cmp=EN_LTRV_romeguide). ### Restaurants in Rome 1. 01 ### Tonnarello Restaurant in Trastevere ![Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tonnarello-Rom-Restaurant-200613214511001-400x200.jpg) Add to myTravel added Over 6,000 positive reviews on Google, even more than 18,000 on Tripadvisor – and always over 20 metres long queues in front of the door. Tonnarello is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after addresses in Trastevere. We think: It’s worth queuing\! That’s what the locals will tell you. Pasta in perfection. 2. 02 ### Grazia & Graziella EN Restaurant in Trastevere ![Pasta-Rom](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Pasta-Rom-400x200.jpg) Add to myTravel added Directly opposite the Tonnarello, queues form in the opposite direction of the street: a seat at Grazia & Graziella is also much wanted. Here, the waiting time is sweetened with a prosecco in a plastic cup. Here, too, the wait for the homemade specialties is definitely worth it. 3. 03 ### Flavio al Velavevodetto EN Restaurant in Testaccio EN Add to myTravel added At Flavio al Velavevodetto you have a spectacular view, even without daylight, of artfully illuminated piles of shards. But it’s not only the flair and the view that make the restaurant worth a visit, but also the excellent Roman food such as fried artichokes or tiramisu! Our tip: Make sure you book in advance to ensure you get a seat. ## Shopping in Rome That you can buy Italy particularly chic and high-quality fashion is nothing new and therefore it is no surprise that you also have numerous shopping opportunities in Rome. For shopping and browsing, all the streets around Via Condotti are perfect. Here you will also find numerous designer brands. If you want something cheaper, you can go to Galleria Alberto Sordi or Via del Corso – on this 1.5 kilometer long shopping street you will find normal stores like Zara or H\&M, but also Italian brands\! When shopping, you can actually pay by card everywhere. Our tip: Beware of the street vendors in Rome. Designer fakes are often sold here, which is strictly forbidden in Italy\! ### More shopping tips for Rome Load more articles ## Cheap to Rome with our money saving tips ![Our guide to Rome with everything you need to know\!](https://loving-travel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Roma-Pass-72-h-Stunden-300x206.jpg)As in many other big cities, there are also different sightseeing passes in Rome, with which you can enjoy your vacation in Rome cheaper.

Besides, you can experience life in Rome much better in the center and use your precious time for sightseeing rather than for long train rides. If you are younger and would like to go to a hipper neighborhood, we can recommend the Trastevere neighborhood, as there is a lot of hustle and bustle here, even at night. Whether you prefer to book a hotel or an Airbnb in Rome is a matter of taste. While you’ll often have breakfast options at a hotel, you can feel like a local at an Airbnb and possibly even save compared to a hotel.
