Rome, the Eternal City, invites you on a journey through time amidst ancient ruins, magnificent artworks, and exquisite Italian cuisine. Visit the capital of the Roman Empire and experience a unique blend of glorious history, rich culture, and a vibrant atmosphere.
Plan a trip to Rome →The 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:
Rome's icon. A genuine must — book ahead to skip the line.
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.
The heart of ancient Rome — striking ruins next to the Colosseum.
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.
A large and beautiful urban park, ideal for a picnic, a walk, or renting a boat on the lake.
A round fortress with a stunning rooftop view of Rome.
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.
Build your own itinerary - your dates, your preferences ←Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums, Pantheon, St. Peter's Basilica
Any season works - MupDay plans around opening hours and the weather, and rebuilds your days as you add or remove places.
Most travellers spend between two and five days in Rome. MupDay builds a full itinerary for whatever length you pick - two days, three, four or a week - splitting the places across the days by proximity and opening hours, so each day stands on its own.
Pick places in MupDay and it auto-builds a day-by-day route with no zig-zag, weather-aware.
