If you have already seen the Vatican or plan to visit it on a different day, this is the tour for you. Our half day tour of Rome's highlights starts with a visit of the Colosseum, the most facinating and famous monument in the city, a place where 50.000 people could watch cruel battle between gladiators and wild beast. Drive by the impressive Arch of Costantine, to reach the area of the Circus Maximus and the Palatine Hill, known for its ruins of ancient imperial palaces.
Reach the Capitoline Hill and climb all the way to the top to enjoy a breathtaking view of the Roman Forum with the Rostrum where Mark Anthony made his impassioned speech over the body of Julio Cesar. Piazza Venezia is a stone's throw away and offers you the opportunity to see the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II, built in honour of the first king of unified Italy and Palazzo Venezia, a renaissance palace that became Mussolini's headquarters during the fascist years.
Eat in a fine restaurant and enjoy lunch with plenty of home-made wine before you reach the famous Spanish Steps and the shopping district. Stop at the most beautiful fountain in the world, Trevi, and perform the coin ritual to ensure your return to the city. Visit then the imposing structure dated 27 B.C. called the Pantheon where the great painter Raphael is buried, and walk through piazza Navona, the most beautiful baroque square in the city. The day would not be complete unless you have tried the chocolate truffle ice cream, famous all over the world.
