What To Expect
Colosseum
Discover the Colosseum, a marvel of ancient engineering and one of Rome's most iconic landmarks. Step back in time to an era when Romans gathered to witness thrilling spectacles, including gladiator battles, wild animal contests, and legendary sea battles. Learn about the fascinating history of this colossal stone amphitheater, which could accommodate up to 60,000 spectators and was constructed in a mere eight years. Your knowledgeable guide will share captivating stories about the architectural design, construction techniques, political importance, courageous fighters, and the eventual end of games at the Colosseum.
Foro Romano
During your exploration of the Roman Forum, your guide will bring to life the myths, festivals, and gods of ancient Rome, illuminating their connection to modern astrology star signs. Uncover the intriguing origins of Christmas on December 25th, influenced by the pagan festival Saturnalia. You'll also learn about the remarkable Lapis Niger, the oldest known Latin inscription discovered, preserved in the foundation of a column within the Forum. Delve into the history of the Temple of the Vestal Virgins, where young women served for 30 years under various emperors, elevated to nearly divine status. Their paramount duty was tending the sacred fire of Vesta, symbolizing the heart of Rome. Legend has it that Rome's prosperity depended on the eternal flame remaining alight.
