"COLISEUM, PALATINE AND ROMAN FORUM "

 PRIVILEGED   ENTRANCES – DURATION 3 HOURS

Enter the impressive symbol of Rome, the Coliseum and hear vivid details on the gladiator combats, wild animal hunts and other varied spectacular events. Visit the Palatine and see the breathtaking views of the Emperors' residences. Stroll along the "Via Sacra" as Julius Caesar, Augustus and Hadrian did when they paraded their victorious legions to the Roman Forum, centre of political, religious and commercial life in ancient Rome. See the interior of the old Senate, the Temple of Vesta, the dwellings of the Vestal Virgins and Triumphal Arches of Titus and Septimius Severus. Our storyteller guides will bring history alive describing the architecture, superstitions, traditions and myths of the roman populace and the incredible extravagancies of the imperial count when the city was capital of an unrivalled empire. Our exploration will lead us up to Capitoline Hill to observe the suggestive ruins of the millenarian Latin civilization.  Admire the Michelangelo-designed elegant renaissance square decorated with statue of Marcus Aurelius and perhaps relax to enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramic views of Rome from a terraced café.

Your guide will be delighted to pass-on good suggestions on restaurants, wine-bars and other useful information.
