Itinerary

The tour begins at the Colosseum, where your guide will meet you.

Next up will be the Arch of Constantine and the Roman Forum. Both situated very close to the Colosseum. The Forum was the centre of life in the ancient city; a place of commerce, politics and religion. This is reflected in the ruins which are present at the site, including the Arch of Titus, the House of the Vestal Virgins, the Temple of Saturn, the Senate House, and the marble Arch of Septimius Severus.

You’ll then follow the Via Sacra (Sacred Way) to the Capitoline Hill and Il Vittoriano, a vast and distinctive white marble monument, an icon of Rome’s skyline.

There will then be a break for lunch (own expense). With many eateries to choose from, depending on your preference, your guide will be happy to assist you in making a choice. After lunch you will walk to the Government District, where you can see the Parliament Building, the Palace of the Council of Ministers and the Column of Marcus Aurelius. The imposing Temple of Hadrian is also located in this district; an impressive edifice which was constructed by the Emperor Antonius Pius to honour his predecessor.

About Rome

Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.

Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
