Description

First off we’ll admire the sight of the symbol of Rome – the Colosseum – and enjoy the view of the Roman Forum.

We’ll then head to the Altare della Patria and the Theatre of Marcellus, take a detour to Tiber Island, and see the Temple of Hercules Victor, the Temple of Portunus, the Mouth of Truth, and the huge Circus Maximus. Afterwards, we’ll visit the massive Caracalla Baths.

Next, we’ll enjoy the impressive view over Rome from the Orange Garden and stop for lunch at the Apuleius Restaurant, with its 2000-year-old columns and walls.

Afterwards, we’ll travel to the Ancient Appian Way by car. It’s a hidden gem punctuated with ruins that you can explore free of charge. The atmosphere is unique and the area isn’t overcrowded. If we have time we’ll also visit the stunning Villa of the Quintilii.

Please note that the Ancient Appian Way part of the tour is only available for groups of up to 4 people. If your group is bigger, we’ll replace it with other amazing spots in Rome.

We’ll head towards the Campidoglio, offering a wonderful view over the Roman Forum. We’ll also visit the Pantheon and walk past the beautiful Column of Marcus Aurelius. Finally, we’ll reach the Spanish Steps by way of the luxurious Via dei Condotti.
