Description

Explore the city center of Rome with this guided walking tour and see from outside its main highlights and hidden treasures. Begin your exploration at the Piazza Cinque Scole, where you can absorb the vibrant atmosphere of the Jewish Ghetto. Continue to the Portico d'Ottavia, a majestic ancient structure that once marked the entrance to a bustling market. Stroll across the Ponte Fabricius, the oldest bridge in Rome, connecting you to the picturesque Tiber Island. Your path will lead you to the Theatre of Marcellus, an ancient theater often mistaken for the Colosseum, and nearby, you will find the Temple of Apollo, where the ruins echo the glory of Rome's past.

No visit to Rome would be complete without a stop at the Circus Maximus, the famous chariot-racing stadium, and outside the Colosseum, the world's most famous amphitheater.
