Highlights
-
Mercati di Traiano - Museo dei Fori Imperiali - When we talk about the ancient city of Rome we think that the archeological site is composed only by the Colosseum, Palatine hill and Roman forum. In reality, there is more! The Imperial Forums were part of the complex of buildings of the ancient city, the central area of Rome. In the XX century the area was completely reorganized divinding the famous Roman Forum from the Imperial Forum. Well, we will discover this unknown part during this tour.
The Museum shows us all the findings of the area of the Imperial Forum, giving us the opportunity to discuss and learn about this other area, its function and how it developed during the centuries.

The most amazing private tour I have ever been on - Vincenzo delivered an amazing private tour of the Palatine Hill and Fori Imperiali. His knowledge is truly second to none; he kept us engaged for 3 hours, shared interesting facts about all the buildings on the hill and in the Forum and giving us a flawless chronology of Roman history. He tailored the tour to his audience and ended it with a beautiful homage to the history of Julius Ceasar who, even if not strictly relevant to the tour itself, is key to the history of Rome and was a personal interest of ours. We had a truly amazing time and will treasure this tour for a very long time. Thank you Vincenzo!!

Fantastic experience with a world-class guide! - Vincenzo was a passionate and knowledgeable guide for our family of four. It is no easy job engaging a 14 and 16 year old in the history of Ancient Rome for a FULL day, including the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Pantheon. Vincenzo provided so many amazing and memorable stories in such rich and vidid detail that set the context for the balance of our time in Rome - and kept us talking about the tour throughout our time there. Thank you for the gift of a memorable day in Rome!

Fantastic visit!! - Fantastic tour led by Martina!
Morning, was Trajan Markets and Museum and in the afternoon we went to Rione Monti.
Martina was absolutely tireless in providing in depth information about the art, history and social context while at the same time sprinkling in fun facts about the artists and the roman emperors!
Additionally, Martina was extremely kind and patient in helping my father navigate the Italian online bureaucracy recover his Green Pass that he had forgotten at home.
