Rome, Italy

Rome wasn’t built in a day, nor can it be seen in a day! The ‘must see’ spots have been so for visitors for hundreds years. The Pantheon, the Vatican, the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain, there is something for everyone to enjoy. With over 900 churches, it is needless to say that Rome is center of Catholicism with millions of worshippers traveling to Rome and Vatican City each year. From ancient societies to modern fiction, Rome seems to stay at the center of the western imagination.

*Many of the sites provide information that will be helpful for your preparation for visiting the city. Additionally, these sites may prove valuable while you are in the specific city with the group, i.e. weather forecasts, city maps, etc. We encourage you to save these sites and visit them prior to venturing out on your own on what may be a national holiday!
