We need some advice trying to finalize our upcoming trip to Rome – we leave in a week!! Yikes!
due to flight changes we only have a limited time in Rome to site see... we are flying round trip from the US to Rome then taking a cruise then fly back to Rome at the end of our cruise then to US. We are staying 2 nights in Rome 1 at the beginning and 1 at the end of our trip. So we really only have two afternoons to site see and not even in a row…
we are arriving from the US on Friday at 8:45am stay overnight at the St. George Roma Hotel and depart at 11am for a cruise the next morning.
We are thinking we could see: the Vatican (Sistine Chappel), Piazza Navona and Pantheon this first afternoon (not staying too long at each place) and a fabulous dinner someplace really special.
On our return to Rome we are flying from Greece to Rome arrive Rome at 10am staying at the Hotel d'Inghilterra then depart the next morning for US at 11am.
We are thinking we would see: Colosseum, Roman Forum (and maybe the Spanish steps or Trevi Fountain) then another great dinner
We are trying to decide the best order to see the sites we have listed - and what is even possible with our now very limited time in Rome - we do not plan to spend allot of time at each place.
does it seem best to see the sites the way we have planned or maybe reverse the order (change the days we see what) ie: Vatican – Piazza Navona – Pantheon the last day?
Thank you!!
