What to do in Rome
Vatican Museums on a Friday night
Book the Friday evening slot (April-October, Vatican website). Sistine Chapel at 8pm with a fraction of the daytime crush, then aperitivo back across the river in Prati.
Aperitivo in Monti, not Campo de' Fiori
6-8pm at Ai Tre Scalini on Via Panisperna - negroni sbagliato, free snacks, 15-minute walk from the Colosseum. Campo de' Fiori is tourist-priced and pickpocket-heavy.
Sunday morning at Mercato Trionfale
Rome's best food market, a 10-minute walk behind the Vatican. Buy porchetta, pecorino, still-warm focaccia. Eat it on Janiculum Hill with the city spread below.
