What you'll do

From pillars of ancient Rome like the Colosseum to pockets of the city where old-school trattorias cozy up alongside no-frills standing bars, there’s more to Rome than could be experienced in other two thousand years of history, let alone four hours. But with a local to help you make the most of your time, you’ll be able to experience a slice of la dolce vita. Flit between landmarks like the Vatican and open-air markets in the heart of Antique Rome, or explore alternative districts flung across the outer reaches of the city, where glamorous streets like those radiating from the Spanish Steps give way to charmingly gritty lanes and alternative venues like Città dell’Altra Economia, Testaccio’s community hub for markets, events and art.

Where you’ll go

You could spend hours in the historic center, where the heart of ancient Rome is scattered across the right bank of the River Tiber. Nestled amongst the remnants of an empire are terracotta-colored piazzas and the Mercato di Campo de' Fiori, an open-air market where the Roman passion for seasonal food comes alive. On the opposite bank of the river, you could explore Trastevere, a trendy neighborhood that’s the epitome of a laid-back dolce vita thanks to its countless bars spilling into cobbled squares. Further south lie alternative districts like Testaccio, the epicenter of Rome’s food culture - not its touristy version - and San Lorenzo, a bohemian paradise of cheap pizzerias and thrift stores, with street art splashed across it all.
