Ginger Harper I had the pleasure of living in Rome from July 2012 to July 2016.  It is by far one of the most wonderful cities on Earth.  You can't go wrong with any suggestions you get.  And sometimes just going into a neighborhood for the day and having lunch and asking the locals what they recommend will turn out to be off the tourist circuit places that are most charming.

OMG the list is so long, and having only been there once I would want to revisit  but see new places, too. I would definitely be back to see all the Vatican has to offer, but also to see the Coliseum, the Pantheon, and the Trevi Fountain. There are wonderful piazzas to visit, too. The list goes on...

I went there many years back.  Saw the Trevi Fountain, the zoo, the Vatican and many of the typical touristy places.  The hotel I stayed in was on the far side of a park from the tourist zone and required a cab ride in and out every day.  The food by the hotel was MUCH better than in the tourist areas.  Had a pizza there that made Dominoes taste gourmet!

Ginger,  I hope this means you ARE going to Rome.  It is amazing.  I suggest you take a tour first, to get your bearings, and decide what you want to do from there.  The architecture and history is so interesting.  Depending on how long you're there... get out of the city and enjoy the countryside.
