Our guide to Best of Rome Highlights

Take an incredible journey to the capital and discover the history, mysteries, and masterpieces of the small and powerful city-state located in the very heart of Rome. You will begin your visit by seeing the amazing Vatican museums, the famous Sistine Chapel, and the magnificent St Peter's Basilica.

That's not all! Rome is also the hub of an empire that dominated the West, and it still preserves incredible works such as the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. The Amphitheatre is the largest in the world and also the best preserved, so it is a must during your stay.

Once you have finished the tour you can enjoy a relaxing walk through the Roman Forum, from the Arch of Titus to the Temple of Saturn, Vespasian, and Antoninus Pius. A great moment of spectacle and fascination in the places that were the social, political, and commercial centres of the Roman Empire.
