Plan a trip to RomeThe must-see places in Rome include Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums, Pantheon and more. Here is the full list, with a short note on each:

The world's most famous fountain. Best early in the morning.
A masterpiece by Michelangelo, a highlight of a visit to the Vatican Museums with its famous ceiling.
The Sistine Chapel and endless treasures. Pre-book — huge queues.
A perfect 2,000-year-old dome. Quick, near-free and stunning.
The world's largest church. Free entry; the dome climb is worth it.

A picturesque neighborhood of alleys, eateries and bars — perfect for evening.
Famous steps at the heart of the luxury shopping district.
A lively Baroque square with Bernini fountains and street artists.

One of the Seven Hills of Rome, the place where the city was founded, with remains of imperial palaces and beautiful gardens.
Here is what 3 days in Rome look like when the planner builds them: stops grouped by proximity so no day doubles back, one full day at a time. The same route can be built for any length, from two days to a week.
This is an example. The planner builds a different route for your dates, real opening hours, how you get around and your own preferences.
