We're thinking about Rome in late September??? Any input on less tourists, lower hotel fares and smaller crowds at places of interest then? I read the following yesterday. The primo time to visit Rome is from April to June or from late September through October. You avoid the heat, the tourists and the highest prices at these times. Winter is an option, but be prepared for the inevitable museum closings and renovations, as well as shorter hours. But if all you need is a fix of "la dolce vita" and maybe a plate of spaghetti carbonara, then a quick trip in January and February will be easiest on the wallet.
