There are some museums in Rome that require you to book before hand. Look into which ones they are. I strongly suggest doing the early morning vatican tour. Yes Rick Steve's book is great for alot of things but the Vatican is just too busy and there is too much stuff to look at.

We took a day trip from Rome to Pompeii, which was really cool.

Also, BEWARE OF PICK POCKETS. On our last day in Rome we got on the city bus to go back to our hotel and this little 9-10 year old girl picked my wife. Luckily I caught her in the act. There is literally nothing you can do about it because they are little girls and if you hold on to them they will scream out.

We book a all afternoon tour of Vatican. I was told that you don't want to try to tour that by yourself.
I'll have to look into any museums we want to go to and see if I will need to book anything ahead of time

This is also something I have been told. I have a "pickpocket" proof backpack as well as a wallet that loops through my belt and under my shorts. I will try and be conscious of that the whole time
