Itinerary
If Rome was born in the Palatine, the Roman Forum was his first conquest. Since then it was the scene of its history, building itself as a body that was growing, suffering and changing according to the times of the city. We will walk along the Via Sacra entering its basilicas, in the Comicio, enjoying the beauty of the temples and the richness of their history.
The Palatine was the symbol of the patriciate, of the 'palaces' in which those in charge of exercising power lived. Place of the foundation of Rome, chosen by Romulus as the origin of the city.
The Roman Colosseum is undoubtedly the most emblematic monument – symbol of the Eternal City. It was built to celebrate the greatness of an empire and a city that marked world history.

The worst tour ever! They changed the start time on us when, as a tourist, we had other things planned. We searched extensively for an option with a Spanish-speaking guide, and the day before, they informed us that "unfortunately, the guide wouldn't be joining us." We couldn't even book on the spot because everything was sold out. A terrible experience; it's best to look with another agency.
Thursday: arrival on Iberia. Bus to the apartment, much cheaper than a taxi, comfortable and clean. Discovery walk through the neighborhood (Prati) and the Vatican, but this was brief because Marcos Rubio was visiting and everything was closed. Excursion to the Gianicolo: Garibaldi Square (with countless statues of the patriots from the 1859 revolution), Fontanona, the Spanish Academy, Bramante's Tempietto, and descent to Trastevere via the Scala del Tamburino. Rest and listen to the Santa Cecilia Orchestra perform Mahler's Fourth Symphony (fabulous). Friday. Vatican open. Tip: attend the 8:30 AM mass at St. Joseph's Chapel and you will be able to see St. Peter's Cathedral peacefully. Shopping on Via Cola di Rienzo and a stroll along the Tiber. Dinner in the Pigneto neighborhood, an old working-class area that is now trendy and full of young, attractive people. Saturday: train excursion to Tivoli, visiting the old town and the fabulous Villas while enjoying a wonderful meal. Sunday. Stroll through the Monti neighborhood, which is also trendy now. Then, for sightseeing: Piazza Navona, Piazza del Popolo, Campo de' Fiori. From Spain, Via del Corso, Trevi Fountain, Villa Borghese… Lunch at Beltrame, a classic restaurant. Monday: last day: farewell while strolling through the Vatican and Prati, which has squares and churches worth knowing. We ate at a "normal" restaurant. (Not "touristy"), frankly quite good. Then by bus to the airport and off to Spain.
All excellent attention from Silvia at all times during the tour
We did the guided tour to the coliseum and the Palatine forum with Nerea, the truth is that everything was great we found the place where you are easily picked up with the instructions, then our guide Nerea was very attentive and cordial and even made us laugh at the group on several occasions and made the visit very enjoyable and was very aware of all the details, we who traveled a lot is what really creates the difference from one experience to another, we were very grateful to her.
¡Muchísimas gracias Rafael! Un saludo desde Roma
It was very nice to go walking through the forum, the palatine and the Colosseum while listening to the stories that the guide is telling, you are soaked in pure Roman history. If you are going to Rome it is essential to take this tour.
Buenos días,¡Qué alegría leer tu comentario! Nos encanta saber que disfrutaste del recorrido y de las historias que acompañan cada rincón del Foro, el Palatino y el Coliseo. ¡Muchas gracias por recomendar la experiencia! Un saludo desde Roma
Excellent guide Simona, explained a lot and had illustrations so we could imagine what it was like in antiquity.
Oh, great. Fabio Guide makes the place very interesting and entertaining. The place is very nice and has a great diversity of attractions
The company very formal, very punctual and the guide Juan extraordinary, passionate about what he does, with extensive knowledge, friendly and cordial at all times.
Wonderful, our guide Patri was magnificent, enjoyable, fun, knows a lot and made us enjoy the monuments and learn a lot. 10/10 for Patri.
Rafaella, our guide, was excellent. He knew the subject very well and made it very interesting and bearable despite the heat of Rome in July. We had already been to the forums and the Colosseum but this visit was much better than the previous ones, and that is due to Rafaella. He took us to meet parts of the Palatine Forum that we had not seen before.
