Mainly addressed to those who have just a day to spend in a
Rome Tour with one of us, Rome Travel Guide. Private transportation is required for
this tour to cover as much as we can in one day trip of Rome. For your brief Rome vacation, we
will be visiting some of the Rome highlights, such as: |
| |
|
One of the most picturesque sites of our Rome Tour, it is where legends crossed the
History of Rome. Romulus and Remus,
Julius Caesar, Nero's Domus Aurea, Caesar Augustus, Livia, etc. the residence where most of the
Caesars lived, we will be visiting what once was the most beautiful place in the
whole
Roman Empire. Highly recommended.
|
| |
|
Inaugurated by Emperor Titus on the year 80 a. D., it was the symbol
of the Roman Caesars for about 250 years. Ludus Gladiatores, Venationes
and Damnatio ad Bestias: there is such a magnetism in this place where
Gladiators met their rivals, crew was mad about the executions of criminals in
a scaring atmosphere. |
| |
|
Being the very centre of Rome, we
will be
fascinated by its temples, basilicas and Senate House along with the Imperial Forums, last
emblem of the Ancient Rome. |
| |
|
Rome is a wonderful movie set itself...
portrayed in the movie " Ben Hur ", land of chariots races... Well, start figuring out appx. 300.000 spectators acclaiming the
hints of bigas, trigas and quadrigas... any entertainment at
the Circus Maximus was a real attraction, a gem of the
Ancient Rome. |
| |
|
Second to none, for most of the
visitors it does represents
the real jewel of the entire Rome Tour. It's the best example of how a gem of the
Ancient Rome turned into the Christian Church. 19 centuries of history in one
single place and it
is still intact.
|
| |
|
Inside
the Vatican, The Roman Catholic Church has the most sublime of its Churches, St.
Peter's. The Church is a museum itself where some of the best masterpieces
were
made by Michelangelo, Bernini. But also Popes, mosaics, the Early Church,
etc. |
| |
|
The main Baroque site of Rome, where fountains,
Churches, street painters, strolling musicians and ruins of Ancient Rome are next to
each other in the real atmosphere of the city of XVIIth Century.
|
| |
|
It is the most
enchanting fountain ever built in the City, the Rome Trevi. You will be
impressed by its
explosion of water-springs, rocks, tritons (and people...) made in Travertine
marble. Main Rome Tourist Spot.
|
| |
|
Nowadays are simply used as a meeting spot not
only by the tourists but also by native Romans. Again, when in Rome do
what the Romans do. The British, the French and the Spanish communities of Rome
mostly chose this area to live in the past centuries. Main shopping Area of
Rome. |
| |
|
If you watched the movie " The Gladiator " this Piazza will evoke
you some scenes. Located
downtown Rome, we also will admire the Italian Government
Palace, better known in Italy as " Palazzo Chigi ".
|
| |
|
The biggest of the historical squares of Rome, in just
one place you may have a 360° view of downtown Rome. Enriched with past and present
Rome monuments, we may spend some time just to get the feeling
of Rome central square. |
| |
|
Better known as the Queen of the Seven Hills,
it became famous since the old times. " All Roads lead to Rome ": this
is the place where departed all Roman roads. The time frame covered is
really impressive: Etruscans, Romulus, Julius Caesar, Caesars Augustus, Marcus
Aurelius, Constantine, Middle Ages, Italian Renaissance, the Capitoline
Museums (first museum in the world) and, of course, Michelangelo. |
| |
|
Restored and cleaned for the Jubilee, you may here have a good idea of the old theatres that were decorating
the Ancient Rome: built in Travertine marble, it was turned on its
upper level in XVIth C. into private apartments now owned by an Aristocratic Family. |
| |
|
Another gem of Rome, it is
fascinating to be exactly where the Romans spent their free time in these never-ending
and huge rooms. Second largest in Ancient Rome, today's equivalent are the SPA
whose origin is in fact Salus Per Aquam ( Health Through Water
) |
| |
|
Done once the Romans conquered Egypt, we have the only old pyramid existing in Europe,
made out of Travertine marble, being a great thumb of this gentleman who died on the Ist Century b. C.
|
| |
|
The very first city walls (VIth Century b. C.
) were safer
and more efficient than the "modern" ones, updated 17 centuries ago...
19 Km large along Rome. Unique in Europe. |
