There’s much more to Rome than just the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Spanish Steps, and the Trevi Fountain. Greater Rome extends beyond the historic city centre, offering a mix of residential charm, historical gems, and modern attractions. Also known as te Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, this area stretches beyond the historic heart into a vast area brimming with cultural treasures, green escapes, and authentic local charm. 

Nestled around the iconic centre, it includes neighbourhoods like Tivoli, Frascati, and Ostia, each with unique attractions. Tivoli offers ancient wonders like Villa Adriana and the enchanting fountains of Villa d’Este. Frascati, part of the Castelli Romani hills, is renowned for its wine and idyllic countryside – book onto a wine tour and taste the local drop at rustic vineyards. Closer to the coast, Ostia boasts golden beaches and the ancient ruins of Ostia Antica, a well-preserved Roman harbour town. Back towards Rome, suburban spots like EUR blend sleek modern architecture with serene lakeside parks, and you can discover another side of Rome in Garbatella Storica, one of the most unique corners of the city, with less tourist queues.

Dining in Greater Rome is an adventure in regional flavours. From rustic trattorias serving porchetta in Ariccia, to seaside restaurants dishing up fresh seafood in Fiumicino, every meal tells a story. Pair your dishes with local wines, especially when you’re in Frascati – bellisimo! Greater Rome offers a quieter, more relaxed pace than the bustling centre, with plenty of nature reserves, charming villages, and easy train connections to central Rome. It’s perfect for balancing the eternal city’s grandeur with authentic, everyday Italian life. Explore its diversity, fall in love with Rome’s broader embrace, and most importantly, when in Rome… do what the Romans do!
