I'm planning my first trip to Rome and I want to make the most of my time there. I've heard about the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Vatican City, but I'm also interested in finding some lesser-known spots. What are your recommendations for both must-see attractions and hidden gems? How can I avoid the tourist traps and still have an authentic experience? Also, any tips on navigating the city and local customs would be appreciated!

Planning a trip to Rome and need a place to stay? The Rome2rio Hotels page has a ton of options listed, but it can be overwhelming! I've used them a few times but never sure if I find the best deals, or if I am missing out on hidden gems. What are your tips for navigating Rome2rio to find the best hotel for your budget? Or is there a better site for finding accommodations in Rome? I'd love to hear personal experiences, hotel recommendations, and any tips for getting the best deal where you can book other activities as well.
