Highlights
This 3.5-hour walking tour is perfect for curious travellers and is limited to just 6 people. With such a small group, you’ll enjoy a personal and relaxed experience, where it’s easy to ask questions and chat with your archaeologist guide. Ostia Antica is much quieter than the ruins of the busy city center and offers a well-preserved glimpse into daily Roman life. As you explore, your guide will help you imagine what the town was like, sharing stories and history at each stop. As you walk under the shade of umbrella pines, you’ll explore well-preserved apartment buildings, old warehouses, fast-food joints, shops, bathhouses, trade centres, shared latrines and much more. Your guide will tell you interesting stories about the sailors, merchants, and locals who made this port city thrive, helping you understand what life was like in Roman times.

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.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
