Highlights
- Colosseum - Short on time for a full Colosseum tour? Make it brief! Be awed by this monumental engineering marvel of ancient Rome, one of the most incredible attractions of the Ancient World, and a must-see on any Rome itinerary. Your guide will bring the stories of this iconic monument to life, including its famous gladiators and the emperors who orchestrated it all. Skip the Line and step into the arena where Romans once gathered to witness gladiator games, wild beast battles, and, according to legend, sea battles. Your guide will reveal fascinating tales about the design and construction, political significance, fighters, and the eventual cessation of the games at the Colosseum. Your Golf Cart chauffeur will be waiting outside the Colosseum to pick you up and start your city center highlights tour, allowing you to relax as you cruise around in your electric vehicle. Note: The Luxury Private Option offers a chance to explore the famous Colosseum underground for an even more enchanting experience. - Ludus Magnus - This is where gladiators prepared and gathered their strength before entering the arena for battle. A secret tunnel connects this training center to the Colosseum, allowing them to enter the arena from the dungeons below. - Spanish Steps - Don’t miss capturing a photo with the Spanish Steps in the background when you’re in Rome! This modern landmark was built three centuries ago to create a visual link between the Fountain of the Barcaccia at street level, designed by Pietro Bernini, and the Renaissance church atop the hill. The Spanish Steps are notable for their unique layout and design, conceived by Alessandro Specchi and Francesco De Sanctis. As a symbol of the iconic Italian Dolce Vita, no visit to the Eternal City is complete without experiencing the charm of the Spanish Steps. - Via Condotti - Rome’s fashion street is a hub for all the renowned brands you can think of. Not only is the street a major attraction, but it also conveniently connects the Spanish Steps to Rome’s bustling shopping district. It’s definitely worth a visit to explore the impressive range of big-name stores! - Trevi Fountain - You’ll easily find your way to the Trevi Fountain. Learn about its history and hop off your golf cart to snap the perfect picture in Rome. When you’re done, return to your vehicle and continue your journey. The fountain, featured in iconic movies like “Roman Holiday” and “La Dolce Vita,” is the largest of its kind in Rome. Construction on this masterpiece began in 1732, following a competition initiated by the Popes during the Baroque era to rival the beauty of the Spanish Steps. Interestingly, the renowned fountain’s creator did not win the competition initially. However, due to the uproar in Rome over a Florentine winning, Nicola Salvi was eventually granted permission to proceed with the project! - Palazzo di Montecitorio - The grand building where political discussions take place. - Pantheon - Welcome to the Pantheon, one of Rome’s most famous landmarks! Prepare to be amazed by its rich history and take a moment to step out of the golf cart and appreciate the awe-inspiring architecture that showcases the incredible building skills of the ancient Romans. Situated in central Rome, the Pantheon is conveniently located within walking distance of other renowned sites such as Navona Square and the Trevi Fountain. Once a Roman temple, it now serves as a functioning church and is the final resting place for esteemed artists like Raphael and even two kings of Italy. What makes the Pantheon truly special is its unique design, featuring a circular roof with an open center called the Oculus. This architectural marvel allows sunlight and even rain to enter the beautiful church, creating a truly magical atmosphere. So take your time to explore this ancient masterpiece and soak in the magnificence of the Pantheon. You’re in for an unforgettable experience! - Via Giulia - Travel along the renowned Via Giulia. Via Giulia was planned around 1508 and named after Pope Julius II as a pioneering example of urban revitalization. The road stretches from the Ponte Sisto to the San Giovanni dei Fiorentini church, following the winding path of the Tiber. The architectural design was entrusted to Donato Bramante, who was overseeing the construction of the new Basilica of Saint Peter, emerging on the opposite bank of the river. - Tempio Maggiore di Roma - Discover the captivating tales of the Jewish Roman community, spanning from the ancient Roman era to the sad narratives of the 20th century. - Isola Tiberina - Rome is full of surprises, one being the stunning Tiber Island. Imagine taking a leisurely walk along the riverbanks in Rome and stumbling upon an actual island! Here, you will encounter two original Roman bridges that still link the island to the city. Moreover, the island boasts a thousand-year-old church. Especially during the summer months, Tiber Island is a picturesque spot with its delectable restaurants and vibrant festivals. An absolute must-see! - Trastevere - Finally, the time has come to venture to the opposite bank of the Tiber river, where the locals gather and socialize in the evening - the Trastevere district. This area of Rome has undergone significant transformations throughout the centuries. It was once the site of the original Jewish Synagogue of Rome and the oldest church in the Eternal City. From 753–509 BC, it was inhabited by “Hostile Etruscans,” and after their conquest, local fishermen took advantage of the nearby Tiber river, making extensive use of this area. Interestingly, Julius Caesar himself selected this part of Rome as the location for his opulent Garden Villa! - Bocca della Verita - The origin of this enigmatic artifact from Ancient Rome remains shrouded in uncertainty. Various historians propose different theories regarding its purpose. According to some, it served as a drain cover within the open-air temple, which stood opposite to its current location. On the other hand, others suggest that it was utilized for the purpose of allowing blood to drip through during animal sacrifices. In present times, a popular myth circulates, claiming that if a dishonest person places their hand inside the artifact’s open mouth, their hand will be forever lost. Numerous replicas of this artifact can be found not only in Italy but also in other countries. However, the original artifact is situated within the covered entrance of the Santa Maria in Cosmedin church in Rome. - Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta - Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta is a charming and compact square that is surrounded on two sides by the elegant cypress trees of the Benedictines’ garden. On the northern side of the square, you will find the Villa del Priorato di Malta. This villa is particularly famous for its small keyhole, known as “Il Buco Della Serratura,” located in the central arch of the entrance. Through this keyhole, you can catch a glimpse of the magnificent copper-green dome of Saint Peter’s Basilica, framed by a beautifully manicured garden pathway lined with trimmed cypress trees. - Giardino degli Aranci - The Parco Savello in Rome is commonly referred to as The Orange Trees Garden. Covering an area of approximately 7,800 square meters, it is situated on the Aventine Hill. Providing a splendid panoramic view of the city, this garden was redesigned in 1932 by Raffaele De Vico. Its purpose was to allow the public to enjoy the scenic view from the hillside, adding a new ‘belvedere’ to Rome’s existing viewpoints from the Pincian Hill and the Janiculum. - Circus Maximus - As you drive around the enormous elliptical Circus Maximus, you will travel back in time to the earliest days of Rome. You will almost hear the spectators as you stand where over 100,000 Romans celebrated the public games. Travel back even further to when the first Etruscan king Romulus once celebrated victory over the Sabines in this famous spot.
