14 days in Rome Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the Eternal City, Rome is the birthplace of the Roman Empire, one of the world's greatest civilizations ever.

Get out of town with these interesting Rome side-trips: Monastero Di S.Benedetto (in Subiaco) and Tivoli (Villa Adriana & Villa d'Este). Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 29th (Mon) at Hydromania. There's much more to do: take in the architecture and atmosphere at St. Peter's Basilica, explore the ancient world of Palatine Hill, contemplate the long history of Colosseum, and admire the striking features of Pantheon.
