Everything you need to know about Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into a compact, walkable centre. In a single day you can stand inside the Colosseum, toss a coin in the Trevi Fountain, gaze up at the Pantheon's dome, and cross the river to the Vatican. Between the monuments, the city runs on espresso, cobblestone piazzas, and long dinners of cacio e pepe — best enjoyed on the spring and autumn shoulder seasons when the light is golden and the crowds thin.

Essential info for Canadian travellers
Passport: A valid Canadian passport is required. Many airlines expect it to be valid for at least three months beyond your departure from the Schengen Area.
Entry & ETIAS: Canadians can visit Italy visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Once launched, the EU's ETIAS travel authorization will be required before you fly.
Travel insurance: Provincial health plans do not cover care in Italy. Comprehensive travel medical insurance is strongly recommended.
Power & plugs: Italy uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, F and L plugs. Bring a European adapter and check that your devices are dual-voltage.
Time zone: Rome runs on Central European Time (CET) — six hours ahead of Toronto, so plan for a day to adjust to the jet lag.

Rome travel FAQ
Everything Canadian travellers ask before booking
Do Canadians need a visa for Rome?
No. Canadians can visit Italy visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Once launched, the EU's ETIAS travel authorization will be required before departure.
How long is the flight from Canada to Rome?
Nonstop flights are about 8h 45m from Toronto to Rome, with seasonal nonstops from Montreal and one-stop options from Calgary and Vancouver.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
April to June and September to October offer warm, comfortable weather. July and August are hot and crowded, while winter is mild and great value.
Is Rome easy to get around?
Yes — the historic centre is very walkable, and a metro, tram and bus network plus taxis cover the rest. Most major sights are within a 30-minute walk of each other.
What currency is used in Rome?
Italy uses the Euro (EUR). Cards and contactless payments are accepted almost everywhere; carry a little cash for cafés, markets and small shops.
Do I need travel insurance?
It's strongly recommended. Canadian provincial health plans do not cover medical care in Italy, so comprehensive travel insurance is essential.
Do I need to book the Colosseum and Vatican in advance?
Yes. Timed-entry tickets for the Colosseum and Vatican Museums sell out, so book skip-the-line tours ahead — you can add them to your package at checkout.
Can I book excursions and day trips through ShopTravel?
Yes, you can add day trips like Pompeii & Naples and Florence by high-speed train, plus guided city tours, to your trip at checkout.
