Overview

Appreciate this 6-hour private visit to see the best sights and old marvels of Rome in one day. You'll be engaged by a private guide as you visit the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, Il Vittoriano, Piazza Venezia, the Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and Piazza Navona, in addition to the Vatican, where you'll see the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica.  This skip the line tour allows you to enjoy the Best of Rome in one day.

Meeting points

At the newsagent in front of the Colosseum Metro Station Exit - ground level (there is only one exit, just in front of the monument) street address is: Via dei Fori Imperiali in front of the Colosseum. Your tour guide will be holding a sign with your name.

Itinerary

  • Colosseum

    Your guide will be waiting for you at the Colosseum, where you'll go to the inside of the field for an investigation of Ancient Rome's biggest amphitheater.

    1 hour

  • Foro Romano

    At the point when your visit is finished, take after your guide for a glance at the Arch of Constantine and the Roman Forum, the domain's focal square and center point of political, religious, and social action. See the first century Arch of Titus, the House of the Vestal Virgins, the Temple of Saturn, the Senate House, and the white marble Arch of Septimius Severus. At that point by means of the Sacred Way, touch base at Capitoline Hill and the Vittoriano, a standout amongst the most delightful landmarks of current Italy.

    30 minutes

  • Fontana di Trevi

    Next, proceed with your visit to the Trevi Fountain, found in a few movies, including Fellini's La Dolce Vita. To take after legend, toss a coin in the wellspring and make a desire that some time or another you'll come back to Rome. At that point it's the ideal opportunity for a rest and lunch (at your own expense); there is an assortment of eateries you can browse, regardless of whether you're in the disposition for pizza, a sandwich, or a more pleasant 3-course dinner.

    30 minutes

  • Column of Marcus Aurelius

    After lunch, make a beeline for the Government District, where you'll see the Parliament Building, the Palace of the Council of Ministers, and the Column of Marcus Aurelius. The notable Temple of Hadrian is close-by; Emperor Antoninus Pius constructed the amazing structure out of appreciation for his ancestor.

    10 minutes

  • Pantheon

    At that point take after a limited road to see the Pantheon, where Raphael, the Renaissance engineer and painter, lies buried

    30 minutes

  • Piazza Navona

    Proceed to Piazza Navona by method for the Ancient Baths of Nero, and appreciate the Fountain of the Four Rivers by Bernini.

    20 minutes

  • Vatican Museums

    Your last goal is the Vatican, which sits over the Tiber River. During your visit of the Vatican Museums and St. Diminish's Basilica.

    1 hour

  • Sistine Chapel

    You'll appreciate a voyage through Michelangelo's most acclaimed works, including the roof of the Sistine Chapel, in addition to Raphael's frescoes and the flats of the pope.

    1 hour

Worth it

We did the Best of Rome full day tour. If you have limited time in Rome but want to see everything, this is the way to go. Sara was an amazing guide. Very informative and friendly. This is a fast paced tour with lots of walking.

What a great day.

Our tour guide Max was excellent. He took pictures of us as we toured the sites. He had so much knowledge and gave us a great look at history. His table had very interesting pictures of the then and now so we could picture ancient Rome. It was a great day!

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.... TRUE ROME EXPERIENCE!! THANK YOU CLAUDIA FOR AN EXPERIENCE WE WILL NEVER FORGET :-)

Published on Sep, 2024

This tour was exceptional. Our Tour Guide Claudia made the history of Rome come to life. She was the BEST TOUR GUIDE for this type of tour. Her knowledge of the history of Rome was spectacular. We saw all the major sites of Rome. She worked around the pouring rain to ensure we saw everything we paid for. I will say we had already seen all of these sites since we come every year, but with Claudia it was like our first time experiencing Rome. This Tour is everything they say it is and more. Carmen, the Tour Company Representative, was very responsive with any answers to questions prior to our arrival so don't be afraid to book this tour. This company is very reputable and give you what you pay for. You will not be disappointed. :-)
