Overview

Rome is filled with Ancient ruins and the remnants of the past. This tour is the perfect way to visit the three most important sites and learn about the times in which they were built and used.

The Colosseum is probably one of the most recognized monuments and is included on the New 7Wonders of the World list. Innumerable Roman citizens walked through the arches and corridors of the famous amphitheater, and now you will do the same, as a captivating guide reveals all the secrets of the landmark’s past.

Next to the Colosseum are the Forum and Palatine Hill. Here you will discover the religious, social, and political center of the Ancient city, still filled with the remains of temples, homes, palaces, and even the abode of the Vestal Virgins. With your guide to navigate you through the tumultuous history of these areas, this will be an experience you won’t forget.

Very knowledgeable guide gave a lot of backstory and tried to make sense of thousands of years worth of civilization and what remains today. Lovely despite being absolutely mobbed with people.

Excellent guide - we learnt so much. She was so knowledgeable. Can’t fault the tour. I would thoroughly recommend this tour to everyone. I booked it in the uk before we set out and it was all very straightforward. The only criticism I had was it was not obvious where the tour started as it has been passed to another company and I was looking for La Vacanza Travel

The guide was very knowledgeable, the italian accent was a bit heavy so we had to pay attention to what she was saying to understand. But the tour was very good!
