Our tour offers a comprehensive exploration of Ancient Rome, starting at the very heart of the empire.
The journey begins in the Roman Forum, once the bustling center of Roman political, social, and commercial life. As you walk through the ruins of this ancient plaza, your guide will recount stories of triumphs, debates, and daily life in the empire.

Next, you’ll ascend Palatine Hill, the birthplace of Rome and the legendary site where Romulus founded the city. Here, you’ll explore the ruins of grand imperial palaces, including the Domus Augustana, and take in panoramic views of the Forum and the Circus Maximus. Your guide will weave together the history and myths of the hill, from the opulent lives of emperors to its symbolic importance in Roman culture.
