Pantheon

2 activities· From €12.08

The Pantheon is the best-preserved monument of ancient Rome, built around 126 AD under Emperor Hadrian and crowned by the largest unreinforced concrete dome in the world. Its perfect proportions and the open oculus at the dome's centre have made it a masterpiece of engineering, studied and admired for nearly two thousand years.

Once a Roman temple to all the gods and later a church, the Pantheon is also the resting place of the artist Raphael and two Italian kings. Entry now requires a ticket, and guided tours reveal the building's history, architecture and symbolism. Sitting in the lively Piazza della Rotonda, it is easily combined with the Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona on a walking tour of Rome's historic centre.

Planning a trip to Rome: what to know

Common Tourist Scams in Rome and How to Avoid Them (2026 Guide)

Common Tourist Scams in Rome and How to Avoid Them (2026 Guide)

Most Rome tourist scams are not dangerous. They are quiet, fast, and expensive. A bracelet tied on your wrist. A "skip-the-line ticket" sold on the street that scans as invalid at the gate. A taxi meter that runs on a route where a fixed fare is the law. Nobody threatens you. You just leave Rome €40, €120 or €300 lighter and unsure when it happened. Our travel experts meet guests outside Rome hotels and at Colosseum meeting points almost every morning, and the same stories repeat all year. This guide lists the tricks that actually happen in 2026, where…

Renting a Car in Rome: Do You Actually Need One? (2026 Pros & Cons)

Renting a Car in Rome: Do You Actually Need One? (2026 Pros & Cons)

Renting a car in Rome sounds like freedom. In practice, for most visitors, it is a daily bill for a vehicle they cannot legally drive into the part of the city they came to see. Rome's historic centre is ringed by camera-controlled zones, street parking is metered almost everywhere near the sights, and petrol crossed €2.00 a litre this summer. That does not mean a car is always wrong. It means the honest answer depends on where you are going after Rome, not on Rome itself. Our travel team put together the real 2026 numbers below: what a rental actually…

Rome Public Transport in 2026: How to Use the Metro, Bus and Tram Without Wasting a Day

Rome Public Transport in 2026: How to Use the Metro, Bus and Tram Without Wasting a Day

Rome public transport is cheap, but it is not obvious. One ticket costs €1.50 and covers the metro, buses and trams, yet most first-time visitors still lose an hour standing at the wrong stop, buying the wrong pass, or waiting for a bus that a strike cancelled that morning. The system is run by ATAC, it has only three metro lines, and half of Rome's most famous sights have no metro station anywhere near them. This guide covers what the 2026 fares actually are, which lines are worth your time, which ones to avoid, and where the network simply will not…

How to Get from Fiumicino Airport (FCO) to Rome City Center: 2026 Prices, Times & Real Advice

Best Family Hotels Rome: 10 Kid-Friendly Stays Near the Colosseum (2026)

Best Family Hotels Rome: 10 Kid-Friendly Stays Near the Colosseum (2026)

Most guides to family hotels Rome offers near the Colosseum list the same four big names and skip the part that actually ruins family trips: the room only fits three, the "quad" is one double bed plus a folding cot, the lift stops at floor two, and nobody warned you the city charges tax per child over 10. This guide fixes that. Below are ten real places to stay within walking distance of the Colosseum, with exact addresses, honest walk times, what each one gets right for families, and what to watch out for.

Top 10 Boutique Hotels in Rome City Center (2026 Guide)

Most lists of boutique hotels in Rome are built from booking-site photos. This one is built from addresses. Every hotel below sits inside the walkable historic core, and every entry gives you the exact street, the real walk time to the sights, an honest 2026 price estimate, and the one thing that usually goes wrong there. Our travel experts meet guests outside Rome hotels almost every morning, so the notes here come from doing it rather than reading about it. That also means we know the part these hotels do not solve: a beautiful room in the centre does…

Where to Stay in Rome: Best Neighborhoods for Every Budget (2026)

Choosing where to stay in Rome is the one booking decision that changes every other day of your trip. Get it right and you walk to dinner, walk home at midnight, and never look at a metro map. Get it wrong and you lose 40 minutes each way, twice a day, for a room that saved you €30 a night. Rome's historic centre is small. Most of what you came to see sits inside a walkable area about 3 km across. But "close to the centre" on a booking site can still mean a 35-minute walk or two bus changes. This guide breaks Rome accommodation down by neighbourhood and…
