How many days do I need in Rome to see everything?

Written by: Kate Zusmann

How many days do I need in Rome to see everything

You need 3-4 days to visit the main points of interest in Rome. One day has to be dedicated to the most popular attractions of the capital, while on the second day the best idea is to visit the Vatican. Since there are so many things to see and do in Rome, you should not expect that you will visit all of them in only 1 or 2 days. Don’t forget that there is also an amazing shopping and for sure, you have to try local dishes! For the best restaurants in Rome I recommend you to visit Trastevere area.

Here is perfect itinerary for 3 days in Rome.
