What you receive

A week in Rome, as it arrives.

A family of five, seven nights, and a Shabbos in the middle of it — the trip you are actually handed, in all three of the places it lives.

A sample, not a booking. The places are real records from this site; the flights and the hotel are left unnamed because nothing here is reserved.

The same week, three ways

Read on the site, opened as an app on your phone, or printed as a cover and a page per day. One trip behind all three — it arrives in your account too, where you can move a day and print it again.

    Rome (FCO)

  2. 9:30 AM

    Back to the Ghetto for lunch

    14 min

  4. 1:00 PM

    The Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain

    13 min

  6. 3:30 PM

Thursday, October 29, 2026

Day 5

Sleeping: A hotel inside the Ghetto

  1. 10:00 AM

    An unplanned afternoon

    Deliberately empty. A week with seven full days on it is a week somebody abandons on day three.

    Overnight stay

Friday, October 30, 2026

Saturday, October 31, 2026

Day 7

Sleeping: A hotel inside the Ghetto

  1. 9:00 AM

    Visit

    Shabbos in the Ghetto

    No times and nothing scheduled, on purpose. Everything is within the quarter you are staying in, which is the whole reason the hotel was chosen for where it stands.

    Evening

    A hotel inside the Ghetto

    Overnight stay

Sunday, November 1, 2026

What is in it

A day per page
Every day as one running schedule — the time, what it is, where, and the line of detail that matters.
Real driving and walking times
Between each stop, from road routing rather than straight-line distance, so the day holds up.
The kosher side, per day
Where you are eating, how far it is from where you are standing, and what to bring.
A Friday that stops early
The planner flags a day that runs into candle-lighting. That is what the last day here is showing.
Room to change it
It arrives in your account on this site as well as on paper. Move a day, drop a stop, print it again.
Nothing invented
Every place named links to a page with practical detail and a named source.

About this sample

What is filled in on yours, and blank on this one.

  • Your itinerary names the hotel, its address and the confirmation number. This one says which quarter it is in.
  • Yours names the airline and the flight number. This one gives the route and the times.
  • Yours carries what you paid. There are no prices anywhere on this site.
  • Neither carries opening hours — they change by season, and a stale one sends a family to a locked door.
