Itinerary
The tour always begins at the Colosseum . Once inside, your guide will talk you through the history of this amazing place – the largest Roman amphitheatre ever built. You’ll hear fascinating tales of the bloody spectacles which were staged there, and why and how it was built.
After touring the Colosseum, the tour will move to the nearby Arch of Constantine and the Forum; the main square and the centre of ancient Roman life. Here you’ll see the ruins of the Temple of Julius Caesar, built on the site of his cremation, the Arch of Titus, House of the Vestal Virgins, the Senate House, the Basilica of Maxentius and much more. The ruins are indicative of the Forum’s place as a melting pot of politics, religion and society.
Next, you’ll see one of the most distinctive monuments in the city Il Vittoriano. Built in 1885 in honour of King Victor Emmanuel II, tis enormous neoclassical building is referred to as “Wedding Cake” by the locals. Near to here is the Quirinal Palace, official residence of the current Italian President.
Your tour will also encompass the incredible Trevi Fountain.
Stroll to Piazza Navona with its sensational fountains and wander through the winding streets to the Pantheon. The Eternal City has so much to offer, and accompanied by a guide you can be sure to experience the very best.
Step inside the Pantheon!

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.
