Ostia Antica Tour
Your private tour guide and driver will pick you up from Rome and guide you through the extraordinarily preserved ruins of Ostia Antica.
Ostia Antica Ruins Day Trip Description
Ostia Antica, the legendary port city of Ancient Rome, is still one of the city’s most interesting if lesser-known sites. Once the thriving trade hub and protector of the Tiber River, all ships arrived here to dock the supplies which fed and watered Rome, before they were sent down the river to the capital. Today, the entire ruined city is still in place, revealing incredible elements of Roman history.
Experience The Life of an Ancient Roman in Ostia Antica
This tour will take you to some of the most important and interesting sites in this 35-hectare city so you can experience a true day in the life of an ancient Roman.
We’ll take you along the ancient Roman main road, see the local baths, gym, and restrooms (yes, the Romans did have public toilets!), visit the barracks of the local firefighters, visit a remarkably well-intact bar, tour a bakery, go to the theatre, and walk in the rooms of an ancient Roman apartment building. Throughout these sites, we will see beautiful mosaics, reminders of ancient warehouses, and long-forgotten temples.
If you want to really experience what it was like to live daily life in ancient Rome, this is a tour you simply cannot miss.
