Rome in a Day

What to see and do if you have only one day to spend in Rome, Italy

Rome wasn't built in a day, so don't expect to see it all in one. Still, you can give it your best shot

Spend the early morning at the Vatican Museums (you'll have time only for the highlights: the Pinacoteca, Raphael Rooms, and Sistine Chapel) and St. Peter's, having lunch on the run to see the Roman Forum.

After taking a gander at the Colosseum, check out the Pantheon and Piazza Navona and then wander the churches and piazze of the Tiber Bend area, making sure to stop by the Spanish Steps.

After dinner, swing past the Trevi Fountain to toss in a few coins and ensure your return to the Eternal City.
