Three days in Rome.The Colosseum, the Vatican, a summer night of music.

At 9am through the Colosseum's oval, on into the Roman Forum and up onto the Palatine Hill, entry runs on timed slots.

In the evening, in the Cavea of the Auditorium Parco della Musica: the opening concert of the city's summer series with Gio Evan under the open sky.

Saturday morning in the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel, deliberately scheduled for Saturday since they are usually shut on Sundays.

In the afternoon, the Pantheon, the ancient rotunda used as the church of Santa Maria ad Martyres since the 7th century, refreshingly cool inside after the midday heat.

On the last morning, up into Castel Sant'Angelo, once Hadrian's mausoleum, later a papal fortress, now a national museum with a terrace over the city.

To close, the Trevi Fountain, the baroque fountain whose inner area has charged admission since February 2026, though it remains freely visible from outside.
