Weather & timing in Rome

Heat, crowds and closures.

Plan around the summer heat

July and August often reach 32–36 °C. Visit outdoor ruins early in the morning or late in the afternoon, rest indoors at midday (museums and churches are cooler), and carry water. Sunscreen, a hat and comfortable shoes are essential.
