Jljb - Your best source of info is the Rome tourist office website. It has an itinerary for seeing the best of Rome in 2 days:

We found this website and thought it was helpful in planning our 2 day visit. They have 48 hour and 96 our suggested tour. Hope it helps you. Enjoy your trip!

Wow, Steve_James, we were posting the same thing at the same time!

thanks much to both of you, steve and marianna.
will start checking the website to finish our itinerary, as compact as it may seem.
again, thanks.

I think before you go on you should review your interests and hotel location.

That will have a lot to do with how you put your days together.

Whether or not you are a museum goer or a site walker makes a big difference.

We were in Rome three years ago and walked a good part of the city each day.

We also limited our museums to the Vatican Museum.
