Tour Details

Find your way to Piazza del Campidoglio, from where your tour will start accompanied by an English-speaking art historian guide. This impressive square was designed by Michelangelo during the sixteenth century and the image of the piazza is currently used on the Italian 50 cent coins.

The square houses the striking town hall and the Capitoline Museums, the oldest archaeological museum in the world. Your knowledgeable guide will lead you through the Museum’s main rooms and point out the most famous art work including the bronze she-wolf that nurses Romulus and Remus, or the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius, sculpted in the second century A.D.

After visiting the Capitoline Museums, we'll visit the Tabularium viewpoint. This panoramic terrace, accessed through the Galleria Lapidaria of the museums, will offer spectacular views of the Temple of Veiove, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill. After enjoying the panoramic views, we'll stroll around Piazza Venezia. Here we'll appreciate all the details of the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II. This impressive Altar of the Fatherland dedicated to the king who achieved the unification of Italy is popularly known by the Romans as “The cream cake”. Its vivid white colors, similar to those of a cake, are particularly striking.

Next, stroll down Via dei Fori Imperiali, flanked on both sides by important Antiquity landmarks, like the Basilica of Maxentius, the Market, Trajan’s Column and the Forum of Nerva, just to name a few.

You’ll come across the Colosseum, also known as the Amphitheatre Flavium, and admire its striking façade and then continue to the Arch of Constantine. The tour will come to an end by the Arch.
