City guide
Visiting Rome in August
August brings peak heat. Many family-run businesses close for summer holidays, but major sites stay open and nights are pleasantly warm.
Rome unfolds along the banks of the Tiber river and across seven storied hills in central Italy. The 'Eternal City' is a living open-air museum where three millennia of civilization meet: from imperial classical forums to renaissance palaces and theatrical baroque piazzas.
- From the airport
- Rome Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport (FCO) is 30 kilometres southwest of the city. The non-stop Leonardo Express train reaches Roma Termini station in 32 minutes. The regional FL1 train provides an affordable link to Trastevere and Ostiense stations. Official flat-rate taxis to central Rome cost 50 euros.
- Getting around
- The historic centre is best discovered on foot, as most famous sights sit within walking distance of each other. Two main metro lines (A and B) and a network of buses and trams handle longer hops. Wear sturdy, supportive walking shoes to navigate the historic basalt cobblestones (sampietrini).
