HOW IT WORKS ?
The tour has been designed for an active traveller who loves walking
and wishes to get a very good overview of most important Roman sights,
all in a day tour.
We will start from visiting the Colosseum (skipping the lines) and
climbing it upper piers. We will than walk past the Arch of Constantine
to the Palatine Hill, once the residence of the ancient rich and
powerful.
The views are breathtaking; from the Bath of Caracalla to the
Circus Maximus and the Aventine Hill and onto the Roman Forum under our
feet. We will stop at the Arch of Titus than descent onto the Roman
Forum with the ruins of its ancient temples, the Senate House and the
Rostra, from where most important speeches were given.
Upon leaving the Forum we will call at the Mamertinum Prison where St Peter and St.Paul spent their last days.
A short climb will take us to the Capitol Hill, the most famous of
the Roman hills. The Rome Town Hall designed by Michelangello is the
seat of Romes major today. We will walk down the hill by the Tarpean
Rock where the traitors of the Empire had been executed and reach the
Theatre of Marcellus and the area of Jewish Ghetto.
The views as we walk down are unique. With the domes of hundreds of
churches at your feet you will understand why Rome is called the city
of thousand churches and one synagogue
We will stop for lunch in a typical Roman trattoria and than
continue to Piazza Farnese with Michelangelos wine-draped overhead
walkway. Then we will pass on to the famous Campo dei Fiori, the heart
of Roman social life. We will continue to Piazza Navona with Berninis
Four Rivers Fountain that is todays artists corner and from there to
Pantheon once Roman gods temple built by emperor Hadrian. We will
finally arrive on piazza Spagna, right at the bottom of Spanish Steps,
making sure to put the legendary coin in the Trevi Fountain on the way.
