the driver will then drop you back at your hotel (or wherever you wish in the city center).
You will explore the Roman Forum, pulsating heart of all activities in the ancient city: discover temples, basilicas and the meeting places for the Roman citizens.
Discover the charming district of Trastevere and the Jewish ghetto. Would you like to explore Rome as it looked like a couple of centuries ago? Narrow stone paved streets lined by medieval houses?
Trastevere is named for its position ‘over the Tiber’. Separated from the heart of central Rome by the river, the area retained its narrow lanes and working-class population when the rest of Rome began its nineteenth-century expansion.
Despite its being a major touristic destination, it has managed to preserve a strong local (and “Roman”!) identity.
