Exploring Rome in 3 Days: A Luxurious Guide by DPP Travel

In just three unforgettable days, discover Rome’s most iconic landmarks, hidden gems, and indulgent culinary delights—all with a touch of luxury. From ancient wonders to twilight strolls through charming neighborhoods, this curated guide blends culture, history, and elegance for the perfect Roman escape.

DAY 1: VATICAN CITY & TRASTEVERE – ART, FAITH & AUTHENTIC FLAVORS 

Start early at Vatican City to beat the crowds. Dress modestly to enter the Vatican Museums, home to masterpieces like the Sistine Chapel and Raphael Rooms. After marveling at Michelangelo’s ceiling, enjoy a refined lunch near Via delle Grazie—Ristorante Arlù is a standout.

In the afternoon, stroll into Trastevere, a charming district of cobbled alleys, boutiques, and piazzas. Dine at La Gatta Buia, where the Fiori di Zucca (stuffed zucchini flowers) are a must-try Roman delicacy.

DAY 2: ANCIENT ROME – GLADIATORS, EMPERORS & EMPIRE 

Take the subway to the Colosseum and skip the line with a guided tour that includes the arena floor and underground chambers. Then climb Palatine Hill for stunning views and step into the Roman Forum, where ancient temples and basilicas tell stories of a mighty empire.

For lunch, consider Ristorante Aroma, offering gourmet cuisine with a direct view of the Colosseum. Spend the rest of the afternoon walking Via dei Fori Imperiali, soaking in the grandeur of Imperial Rome.

DAY 3: CITY HIGHLIGHTS – FOUNTAINS, CATS & SUNSET PIAZZAS 

Begin with a morning espresso at the Trevi Fountain, best enjoyed before the crowds arrive. Toss a coin for luck, then head to the Pantheon, a marvel of ancient engineering still standing in majestic silence.

After a light lunch near Piazza della Rotonda, visit Largo di Torre Argentina, home to both ancient ruins and a beloved cat sanctuary. End your Roman escape at Piazza Navona, glowing at sunset and alive with art and elegance.

Raise a glass at a local enoteca as the city lights shimmer—Rome has a way of staying with you long after you’ve gone.
