Taking the nine hour flight from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) to Rome brings visitors to a city with more than 3,000 years of culture and history. Begin the journey in the oval PIazza del Popolo. Pass through the medieval Porta Flaminia and see the Flaminio Fountain, the Fountain of the Goddess of Rome and the Neptune Fountain. You'll also want to tour the twin Santa Maria dei Miracoli and Santa Maria Montesanto churches. You can reach PHL using a variety of transport options including taxi, bus and train.
If you're renting a car at the airport, head into the city via the E80 highway that leads directly to Rome. You can also take the Metro, which easily connects you with Rome's best attractions such as The Vatican. If you're feeling adventurous, rent scooters and enjoy the city in the open air. See the Pantheon temple that was dedicated to Mars and Venus. Start at the Aurelian wall and then take a stroll along the Appian Way, while admiring the many friezes and statues that grace ancient temples and tombs.
Once you arrive at the Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport (FCO) in Rome, numerous historic sites and collections of masterpiece artworks await. Visit St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican museums, and the famous Trevi Fountain. After you can explore the remains of the ancient Colosseum, which once hosted the infamous gladiators.
