Start your day with a hearty breakfast at Pizzarium, a popular spot for delicious Roman-style pizza. Then, make your way to the Vatican Museums (Musei Vaticani) for a guided tour that includes the Sistine Chapel (Cappella Sistina) and the St. Peter's Basilica (Basilica di San Pietro). Marvel at the art collections and the stunning architecture of the basilica.

For lunch, enjoy a meal at Trattoria Da Cesare al Casaletto, a neighborhood gem known for its Roman specialties. Afterward, take a stroll to the Pantheon, one of the best-preserved ancient Roman buildings, and then toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain (Fontana di Trevi) to ensure your return to Rome.

Conclude your art and history journey with a visit to the Piazza Navona, where you can admire Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers. For dinner, head to Il Pagliaccio, a two-Michelin-starred restaurant offering a contemporary take on Italian cuisine. Enjoy a memorable dining experience before bidding farewell to the Eternal City.
