HandCarry
Lots of custom checks and tons of baggage delay and lost occurences in Europe especially if you go via planes. Our bags were delay in/out of Rome from London. It was such a hassle and their system is really not efficient in helping stranded tourists without their bags. So it's best to pack an extra set of clothes on your handcarry if you have space.

By the way, most airlines allow you to an immediate compensation of about 60 Euros or pounds if your bag is delayed, if you have no travel insurance. Check on what can be bought with it though, there're various conditions to meet.

Must bring!
Rolling luggage - and not too big.. you'll be dragging it up steps and through narrow hallways.

Walking shoes and a rain-proof jacket

tylenol - and allergy pills if you're sensitive to pollution

Lots of film!

Weather Is Hot
Small trolleys will fit your needs.

It never snows, it rarely rains, a lot of sun, so avoid heavy clothes. Very comfortable shoes, you'll never walk as much as in Rome.

It's a metropolis, you can easily find anything for good prices. Just what is necessary.

Don't forget your camera, preferrably a reflex one; digitals ill give you cold images of a hot city. No videocameras, unless you're Japanese...

Many public parks, many great and lovely beaches... It's up to you!

My advice is a small backpack

Packing...
Take a comfortable backpack with not too much weight...

Good walking shoes are a must...you will probably walk almost everywhere you go...

Make sure you take a lot of film for the many photos you will want to take. A zoom lens also comes in handy for getting to those 'hard to reach' places...

Packing List
The best thing you might bring on your trip to Rome is luggage that has WHEELS. Walking through the airport and getting to your hotel is that much easier when you are dragging your suitcase rather than having it drag you down!

Comfortable walking shoes.
