Must-See Attractions in Rome
Colosseum & Roman Forum 
Step back in time at the Colosseum — Rome’s most iconic landmark — where gladiators once fought before thousands of spectators. Just nearby, the Roman Forum reveals the heart of ancient political life. Even from the outside, these monuments speak volumes of Rome’s glorious past.
Pantheon
Marvel at the Pantheon’s perfect dome, an engineering masterpiece built nearly 2,000 years ago. Its harmonious proportions and open oculus make it one of the best-preserved temples of ancient Rome.
Piazza Navona
Once a Roman stadium, today Piazza Navona enchants visitors with its elegant fountains, street artists, and lively atmosphere. Don’t miss Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers at its center.
Trevi Fountain
Toss a coin over your left shoulder and make a wish — legend says it ensures your return to Rome. The Trevi Fountain’s grand design and cascading water make it one of the city’s most romantic spots.
Spanish Steps
Climb the famous stairway leading from Piazza di Spagna to the Trinità dei Monti Church. From the top, enjoy a charming view of Rome’s rooftops and elegant boutiques below.
Vatican City & St. Peter’s Square
No visit to Rome is complete without a stop at St. Peter’s Square. Admire the basilica’s monumental façade, Bernini’s grand colonnade, and the spiritual heart of Catholicism.
Why Add a Rome Highlights Tour Before or After Your Cruise
A Pre or Post Cruise Tour is the smartest way to make the most of your travel day.
Instead of heading directly to your hotel or port, enjoy a private sightseeing journey through Rome’s highlights — all with the comfort of a luxury Mercedes vehicle and your private English-speaking driver.
You can customize your itinerary, choose where to spend more time, or add extra photo stops and short breaks for gelato or espresso. Your luggage will remain safely stored in the vehicle while you explore.
Whether you’re arriving in Italy or preparing to depart, a Rome Highlights Tour turns a transfer into an unforgettable experience.
