We have a huge list of places to go after spending two months in Rome. Some places are from our previous trip to Europe, but most are places we found while researching for our trip or recommended by locals. A few are hidden gems we found while we were there.
After either personally vetting each place or being recommended by a trusted source, I created this tourist guide for visiting Rome. Places with links are ones we’ve been to and places without are still on our to-do list when we go back.
You’ll find our favorite pizza, gelato, pasta, sandwiches, markets, gardens, ancient sites, fun bars, and much more.
