Ancient Rome Driver-Guided Tour Description
Ancient Rome is not just about the Colosseum and Roman Forum; some of the city’s most interesting sites are found in areas that can’t be accessed so easily without a car to take you there and a private guide to bring the history and significance of these locations to life for you.
In our fully air-conditioned vehicle, you will head outside the ancient city walls to learn all about how ancient Romans worked and lived: from their greatest engineering feats to their daily habits and traditions.
What Ancient Sites Will You Visit With Your Private Driver and Guide?
Did you know Rome has its very own pyramid? Well, that is just one of the things you’ll discover on our driving tour!
Your expert guide will take you to places such as the oft-forgotten ancient cattle markets of Rome, the Forio Boario, Circus Maximus, and the Aventine Hill, the home of the elite in both ancient and modern times.
We will then travel outside of the city to the Park of the Aqueducts and the famous Appian Way, where you will have the opportunity to walk on the ancient road that dates back to 312 BC.
Further on, you will visit the 1st-century Roman Pyramid of Cestius and head into the Testaccio district, the warehouse district of classical Rome. Its archaeological site, Monte Testaccio, looks like a hill but is actually a huge mound of ancient Roman broken urns, today housing a park as well as bars and restaurants. The tour finishes with one of the most panoramic vistas of Rome: the Janiculum Hill.
Major Sites: Foro Boario, Circus Maximus, Aventine Hill, Appian Way, Park of the Aqueducts, Baths of Caracalla (from outside), Pyramid of Gaius Cestius, Monte Testaccio, Janiculum Hill.
