Rome photo Over the years, we've maintained a directory of travel links for Rome, but we're now expanding it into a more comprehensive Rome for Visitors travel-planning site (partly as a service to the more than 1.5 million travelers who rely on our Venice for Visitors site each year and who, in many cases, are also visiting Rome).

As a first step toward expanding our Rome guide, we've added a series of illustrated Transportation articles on Rome's airports, Metro trains, buses, trams, taxis, and related topics.

You'll find other articles listed on our Rome Sightseeing and More About Rome pages.

If you're planning a Cruise, don't miss our 35-page section about Rome's port of Civitavecchia (including the cheapest ways to get to and from the harbor).

For more trip-planning resources, please see our Rome Accommodations Index and Rome Travel Links.
