Rome Honeymoon 

All roads lead to Rome, the proud city once considered the center of the world. Italy’s capital offers honeymooners plenty of sightseeing, cultural discoveries, and diverse dining options. On a Rome honeymoon, you step back in time to visit the ancient world one moment, then return to a modern capital city the next in a compelling blend of the past and the present! 

Because Rome is a popular tourist destination and major European city, the best way to visit is armed with insider recommendations–there are plenty of charming neighborhoods just beyond the well-trodden tourist track. Knowing how to avoid tourist traps is especially important for a honeymoon in Rome, as you seek out romantic, private, and authentic experiences rather than getting caught up in the hustle and bustle.

Highlights of a Honeymoon in Rome

Even though each honeymoon in Rome we plan is completely customized, here is what you can expect from a romantic trip to the Eternal City:

  • Venture into the Vatican City, where you’ll be mesmerized by the beauty of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, the cornerstone of Renaissance art. 

  • Wander through the romantic Villa Borghese gardens, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, and walk down the Spanish Steps into one of the world’s most luxurious streets: Via dei Condotti. 

  • Escape the touristy areas with dinner in our favorite local neighborhoods, where you can feast on traditional Roman dishes like amatriciana and cacio and pepe paired with fresh white wine from the Castelli Romani hills. 

  • Visit Rome’s romantic Trastevere neighborhood, where streets are lined with old, charming buildings and quaint trattorie abound. 

  • Explore the storied Colosseum, or veer off the beaten path to visit 16th-century Villa Farnesina with its ceiling frescoes by Raphael. 

  • No visit to Rome is complete without a meal and a drink on a rooftop terrace, from which you can watch the colors of the sunset illuminate ancient Roman ruins.
