Itinerary

1
Stop
The Colosseum is the largest amphitheater ever built and the symbol of Rome. Travelers marvel at its imposing architecture, imagining the gladiatorial games and wild animal hunts that entertained up to 80,000 spectators.
2
Stop
The Roman Forum was the political, religious, and commercial heart of ancient Rome. Visitors walk along the Via Sacra among the ruins of ancient temples, basilicas, and triumphal arches reliving the daily life of Roman citizens.
3
Stop
Palatine Hill is the founding core of Rome, the legendary site where Romulus is said to have established the city. It offers the best panoramic views over the entire Roman Forum and Circus Maximus. Travelers can explore the vast ruins of imperial residences and the beautiful Farnese Gardens (Orti Farnesiani).
4
Stop
The Circus Maximus was the massive stadium dedicated to chariot racing. Today, the oval imprint of the arena remains, but its enormous scale, which once accommodated over 250,000 spectators, is clear.
5
Stop
The Imperial Forums are a series of monumental public squares added to the Roman Forum by emperors to commemorate their victories. They are famous for Trajan's Column and the remains of Trajan's Market, offering a glimpse into the ambition and grandeur of the Empire.
