Rome is the Eternal City for a reason — few places on earth pack so much history, art and beauty into a single destination. Things to do in Rome span three millennia: the Colosseum and Roman Forum take you to the heart of the ancient world; the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel represent the peak of Renaissance achievement; the Baroque fountains and piazzas of the 17th century are scattered across every neighbourhood. Beyond the monuments, Rome rewards wandering. The Trastevere neighbourhood offers authentic trattorias and cobblestone streets away from the tourist crowds. Campo de' Fiori hosts a morning market surrounded by bars that turn into some of the city's best aperitivo spots. Gelato, supplì, cacio e pepe — Rome's food culture is as extraordinary as its architecture. The city is best experienced slowly, with no agenda beyond curiosity.

Three days covers the Colosseum, Vatican, Pantheon, Trastevere and the main piazzas. Four to five days lets you explore beyond the centre and visit Ostia Antica or the Borghese Gallery.
Yes, especially for the Colosseum and Vatican Museums — queues without pre-booking can be several hours long. The Borghese Gallery requires advance booking regardless.
