Itinerary

  1. Roman Forum

    Passing by

    Marvel at the size of the largest political and commercial hub of the Ancient Roman Empire, as you drive by the ruins of grandiose temples, basilicas, and public spaces leading to the Colosseum.

  2. Piazza Venezia

    Passing by

    Be amazed by the colossal white marble monument where the eternal flame always shines to pay respect to the unknown soldiers who fell during the war. Two soldiers guard it day and night to ensure it never goes out.

  3. Appian Way (Via Appia Antica)

    Passing by

    See the most important road of Ancient Rome, which was essential in transporting troops and goods in and out of Rome. Today, part of a splendid national archeological park.

  4. Pantheon

    10 min Admission not included

    the most ancient building in Rome to marvel at the "Oculus" in the center of the dome and the opulence of the marbles and the exquisite details of the statues all around you.

  5. Piazza Navona

    10 min

    Rome is for real an open-air museum, as testified by this awesome square where you can admire the best example of Baroque art in its exquisite fountains. Why not enjoy a nice gelato as you stroll around the piazza?

  6. Spanish Steps

    15 min

    Climb the 138 steps that lead to the church of Trinità dei Monti for a spectacular view of the square below, or just walk around the square to enjoy one of the most acclaimed spots in the Eternal City.

  7. Trevi Fountain

    10 min

    Time to throw your coin in the Trevi Fountain for good luck and a safe return to Rome, but you need to do it right! Turn your back to the fountain, hold the coin in your right hand and toss it over your left shoulder!

  8. Catacombe di San Callisto

    one hour Admission included

    Ancient Roman law prohibited the burial of the deceased inside the city walls, so they were built along the Appian Way, which was outside the walls. They are a network of passageways that can stretch for over 15 miles underground, so visiting them is only permitted with the aid of a catacomb guide provided by the site.

  9. Colosseum

    45 min Admission not included

    Also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, it was built in the 1st century AD and is renowned for its grand scale and architectural innovation. The Colosseum was primarily used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles, symbolizing the might and entertainment prowess of ancient Rome.
