Insurance and Safety During Your Trip to Rome:

  • European Health Insurance Card: If you are an EU citizen, don’t forget your European Health Insurance Card. It will allow you to access the necessary health services during your stay in Rome, often free of charge or at a reduced cost.

  • Why take out additional travel insurance? Rome offers quality medical facilities, but unforeseen events can happen. In addition to your European Health Insurance Card, I strongly recommend taking out travel insurance. This will provide you with additional coverage and invaluable peace of mind.
Secure Rome: Opt for supplementary travel insurance.

Other health advice:

  • Stay hydrated: Drinking water is readily available in Rome, so be sure to drink regularly to avoid dehydration, especially during hot summer days.
  • Balanced diet: Enjoy Italian cuisine, but maintain a balanced diet to maintain your health during your trip.
  • Sufficient sleep: Sightseeing and activities can be exhausting. Be sure to get enough rest to fully enjoy your trip.
