The first option is a city tour with a private guide to see Rome's must-sees, such as the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon, to name a few. And the other is a private sightseeing of probably the most iconic sights of the city: the Colosseum, the Palatine Hill, and the Forum.
If you choose to embark on a city tour, your professional guide will invite you to step back in time and enjoy incredible historic highlights of vibrant Rome! The jewel of Italy, this cultural gem is an incredible place that will make you fall in love with its rich history, unique artworks, and architectural gems. From loud names such as Piazza Navona and the Spanish Steps to hidden churches and backstreet gems you would have missed otherwise, this tour will show you Rome in all its glory.
If you choose to explore the treasures of Ancient Rome today, the tour will start by visiting the Forum, an incredible place that witnessed Julius Caesar's cremation, crucial military processions, the keeping of the sacred flame by the Vestal Virgins, decisions made by senators of the old republic that influenced the destiny of the empire, and many other things of unparalleled historic value. After that, you proceed to Palatine Hill, the first of the seven hills and arguably the most important of them, as Rome was founded on it in all its glory. Next, you visit the pearl of your tour, the one-and-only Colosseum. Marvel at the tier upon tier of seating and imagine a time when they were full to capacity with bloodthirsty spectators calling out for more.
After the tour, you have some free time and can explore Rome on your own.

This trip felt like a movie. The mozzarella farm visit arranged only for us was unforgettable. Sorrento sunsets were unreal. We stayed in very nice boutique hotels (Sentho is my absolute favorite!). Everything went smooth and easy, we never worried about a thing!
