Local Insider Tips

  • Book Vatican Museums and Colosseum tickets weeks ahead — lines are brutal
  • Eat away from the tourist triangle of Trevi, Spanish Steps, and Vatican
  • Roman trattorias serve Tuesday and Thursday specials — often the best value
  • Walk everywhere — Rome's historic center is compact and best on foot
  • Free drinking fountains (nasoni) are everywhere — fill your bottle constantly
