17 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.

You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like The Roman Food Tour and Unieuro. Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Mercato di Campagna Amica del Circo Massimo and Mitsukoshi. There's much more to do: explore the ancient world of Pantheon, admire the striking features of Villa Borghese, explore the world behind art at Palazzo Colonna - Galleria Colonna, and make a trip to Trevi Fountain.
