description: Rick Steves offers opinionated commentary on the best museums and historic sights (such as St. Peter's, the Sistine Chapel, and the Coliseum), plus strategies for navigating them. He's also got lots of information on Rome's new and improved pedestrian-only streets and new trolleys that make exploring the city even more fun. There's also a special section of Jubilee Year festivities for the biggest year in Rome's tourism since ancient times. The book includes the best sights and activities, friendly places to eat and sleep (personally inspected by Steves and his staff for both character and affordability), suggested day plans and itineraries, and clear transportation instructions that make it easy to get anywhere by car, train, or foot.
