Rome mini guide

The Leonardo da Vinci International Airport in Rome is known locally as Fiumicino, and is the city’s main airport, situated 26km (16 miles) south of the city centre. Accommodating some 30 million passengers annually, it is Italy’s largest and busiest airport, and the main gateway to the breathtaking city of Rome.

‘The Eternal City’ of Rome is located in the Lazio region of Italy and is the country’s capital city. The city is huge, and boasts a phenomenal amount of some of the most spectacular and awe-inspiring architecture, art and historical sites in the world. There is so much to see and do in the city that you may feel like you will never get it all done, but there are some obvious highlights that should be visited.

The Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Roman Forum, St. Peter’s Basilica, The Sistine Chapel, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps,, Piazza Venezia, Piazza Navona, Castel Sant Angelo… these are only a small selection of some of the more famous of Rome’s attractions. The city’s abundance of beauty and wealth of historical sites defies belief, and most visitors to Rome are overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of it all. In fact, a guidebook is a great way to decide what you want to see before you go – a mini guide will never cover it all! What is more, many of the above sites are not just cheap, but admission free. A trip to Rome on a tight budget is entirely doable and still a very rewarding experience.

Eating on a budget is also easy, with plenty of cheap places offering slices of pizza or a good panini for a low cost. There are countless trattorie and pizzerie offering reasonably priced, delicious, fresh Italian cooking that won’t break the bank. Coffee and wine lovers will be in heaven in Roma, as both are taken quite seriously here!

The nightlife is lively to say the least, and some of the most fun you can have is at the outdoor tables in the piazzas when night falls. Warm evenings in Roman piazzas are relaxing and fun, reminiscent of ‘La Dolce Vita’ and sure to stick in the memory. Night’s out won’t be too stressful on your budget once you are conscious of your spending. Shopping in Rome is also excellent with everything from flea markets selling cheap clothes to outrageously expensive designer boutiques.

The best way to sum up Rome is with the popular expression – “Roma, non basta una vita" – “Rome, a lifetime is not enough”
