5-Day Italy Itinerary: From Rome’s History to Amalfi’s Coastline

Italy is a masterpiece — where every street, meal, and view tells a story. From the ancient ruins of Rome to the canals of Venice and the cliffs of Amalfi, here’s a 5-day itinerary that captures Italy’s timeless charm while keeping you connected with Skyesim’s seamless eSIM.


Day 1 – Rome: The Eternal City

Highlights: Colosseum, Roman Forum, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona

Start your journey in the heart of history. Visit the Colosseum and imagine the gladiator battles that once filled its arena. Walk through the Roman Forum and climb Palatine Hill for sweeping city views.

In the afternoon, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain (legend says it guarantees a return to Rome). End your day dining on carbonara in the Trastevere district.

Stay connected tip: Skyesim’s Italy eSIM gives you instant data the moment you land, so you can skip the SIM kiosks and dive right into adventure.


Day 2 – Vatican City & Baroque Rome

Highlights: St. Peter’s Basilica, Sistine Chapel, Spanish Steps

Spend your morning in Vatican City — the world’s smallest country. Explore St. Peter’s Basilica and gaze at Michelangelo’s ceiling in the Sistine Chapel.

After lunch, wander through the Spanish Steps and Via del Corso for some classic Italian shopping.


Day 3 – Florence: Renaissance Wonder

Highlights: Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, Ponte Vecchio

Take the high-speed train to Florence (about 1.5 hours). Marvel at Brunelleschi’s dome atop the Duomo, then explore masterpieces by Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci at the Uffizi Gallery.

As the sun sets, cross the Ponte Vecchio and enjoy gelato by the river.

Pro tip: With your Skyesim connection, you can easily book museum tickets online to skip long queues.


Day 4 – Venice: The Floating City

Highlights: Grand Canal, St. Mark’s Basilica, Rialto Bridge

Travel north to Venice, the city of canals and romance. Take a vaporetto (water bus) along the Grand Canal, visit St. Mark’s Square, and walk across the Rialto Bridge.

No cars, no rush — just water reflections and endless charm.

Enjoy a gondola ride at sunset or explore quieter neighborhoods like Dorsoduro for authentic Venetian food.


Day 5 – Amalfi Coast Escape

Highlights: Positano, Amalfi, Sorrento

For your final day, head south to the Amalfi Coast, one of Italy’s most breathtaking drives. Wander the pastel streets of Positano, sip limoncello in Amalfi, and enjoy sea views from Sorrento.

Whether you’re uploading drone shots or navigating coastal roads, your Skyesim eSIM keeps you connected — no roaming fees, no surprises.
