per person, per day
Over 5 days, for two people: €1.000–1.500
What it is made of
Per person, per day: accommodation €60-85 (shared double in the Nazionale/Monti area), meals €30-45 (lunch at a bakery or market, dinner in a trattoria), transport €3-6 (2-3 ATAC rides), entries €5-15 on average (Pantheon €5, basilicas free; the three big ones — Colosseum+Forum ~€18, Vatican Museums ~€25, Galleria Borghese ~€17 — weigh on single days but spread out they fit). Total €100-150: the upper end of the comfort range, honest for Rome if you book everything in advance.

This is the bill for OUR itinerary, not “how much Rome costs”. Stay in a hostel or eat once a day and you will spend far less; want a hotel in the centre and it is far more. Entry prices are the ones stated in the itinerary: check them before you go, they change.
