Top Lazio Attractions & Museums

We will leave DA Gaeta, admiring the Aragonese Castle overlooking the sea. We will head to Monte Orlando Regional Park, a place that offers amazing and enchanting scenery. Unforgettable the glimpse of the cliffs, walls more than 80 meters high, which run overhanging the sea and the imposing and suggestive "Cave of the Turk". At the extreme point of the promontory awaits us the Sanctuary of the Split Mountain. On the opposite side of the beach of Serapo from the promontory of the Sanctuary, a sort of islet-rock is clearly visible, renamed by the locals "the ship". The nickname comes from the fact that the rock as a whole recalls the shape of a boat. Once in Sperlonga we will admire the medieval towers dating back to 1500 and the wonderful natural caves of limestone formation: the Caves of Bazzano, Capovento and the most suggestive, the "Blue Grotto" Immerse yourself in its crystal clear waters! Very suitable activity for birthdays or stag/hen parties.

Tarquinia was the most important Etruscan city in the seventh century BC.C. and is famous above all for the Monterozzi Necropolis, which under its green mounds houses over two hundred painted tombs from the pre-Roman era. Let yourself be guided to discover the secrets of the most beautiful and fascinating tombs: the Leopard tomb, with its banquet scenes showing the incredible freedom of Etruscan women, the Hunting and Fishing tomb, showing the favorite pastimes of the aristocracy of the time, the Warrior’s tomb, where the games present in the funeral rites are represented (including dances, fights between boxers and fights that inspired gladiator games).

Located on Lake Bracciano, Castello Orsini-Odescalchi is one of Italy’s largest and grandest castles—and this tour from Civitavecchia makes visiting simple. Meet your guide after disembarking from the cruise port shuttle, and set off with just a small group for company. Upon arrival at the castle, you’ll explore the landmark, will learn about its history, and will even enjoy a traditional Italian meal before returning to Civitavecchia.

Unveil a hidden side of Rome, away from the bustling tourist routes, as you explore the ancient Christian catacombs along the legendary Appian Way. The Catacombs of St. Callixtus, stretching over 12 miles (20 km), form the oldest and best-preserved underground burial network in Rome. Established between 198 and 217 AD, they became the first collective Christian cemetery in the city. Next, you will visit the Catacombs of St. Sebastian. Built above a pagan sanctuary, it was later dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul before taking the name of St. Sebastian in the 4th century. As you resurface, take in the peaceful beauty of the Appian Way, surrounded by lush greenery and timeless ruins. Before heading back to Civitavecchia, breathe in the unique atmosphere of this ancient Roman road, where history quite literally lies beneath your feet. This is more than just a tour—it’s a journey through time, exploring the secrets of Rome’s underground past.
