Itinerary

Choose from a morning or afternoon tour to suit your sightseeing style, and meet your guide at either the Arch of Constantine or, if you select the driving option, with pickup at your hotel in a private vehicle. With the latter option, a driver will be at your disposal all day to whisk you between hard-to-reach sites and wait while you explore. With either option, take advantage of your guide’s expertise in archaeology or art history to delve into Rome's epic past.

Hear the stories behind the Imperial City’s must-see landmarks, from the ancient mythology of the Pantheon to the Baroque flourishes of the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and Piazza Navona. Make the most of your time as your guide shares insight into Roman history on the way to each landmark, and have a quick rest in between attractions. Since it’s a private tour, you can choose to linger at places that captivate you or take a break for a snack or free time — it’s all up to you!

No visit to Rome is complete without a tour of the mighty Colosseum, so skip the long lines at this popular attraction and step inside to hear grisly tales of gladiators and animal hunts. After a visit here, your tour concludes at a convenient central location or with drop-off back at your hotel (with the driving option).
