About this tour

Day one sweeps through ancient sites and the historic centre—the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and Piazza Navona.

What to expect

Your guide meets you at the Colosseum to begin a thorough walk through ancient Rome, then moves into the medieval and Renaissance centre hitting the major plazas and fountains. You'll navigate stairs and cobblestones throughout, so comfort matters. Day two focuses on Vatican institutions—expect to see Michelangelo's masterwork in the chapel and the vast interior of St. Peter's before climbing to Castel Sant'Angelo. The pace is brisk but manageable; your guide controls entry timing to minimise queues. Evenings are yours—the tour ends by late afternoon, leaving time to eat and explore neighbourhoods without rushing.

Good to know

Wear supportive walking shoes and bring water—there are plenty of stairs. Carry a valid passport or ID for Colosseum and Forum access. Food, drinks, and tips aren't included. Public transport serves both meeting and end points. Some sites may be under restoration during the Jubilee; your operator will notify you of changes.
