Cheap Flights to Rome
Why go: History and masterpieces are everywhere—the piazza where you stop for an espresso, the Pantheon, the Colosseum, Vatican City, the same streets that Caesar, Michelangelo, and popes have walked—it’s all here.
Rome is over 2,700 years old, and you can walk through the Roman Forum, the birthplace of Western civilization. From the Middle Ages to the eighteenth century, the city was the center of intensive artistic work. Still a treasure trove of art and architecture, Rome is a modern city with great shopping, food, and people, and the bustle and nightlife of a capital city.
Whether you have two days or two weeks, you can be awed and inspired by Rome. As a starting point for deciding what you’ll do, the Rome Tourist Board (Roma Turisma) and Rome.info web sites have information about sights, artwork, and events in Rome. Once you’re in Rome, information kiosks in the city center give out free maps, directions, and details about nearby sites.
